We tested whether women’s sense of authenticity can be compromised by the expression of masculine characteristics and whether feelings of authenticity directly or indirectly connect masculine expression to a diminished sense of interest in a science position. In Study 1 (N = 105), we randomly assigned female undergraduates to present themselves as possessing traditionally high masculine characteristics or possessing non-masculine characteristics. They recorded a video “interview” for a science laboratory position and reported on their feelings of authenticity. Women in the masculine-expression condition reported less authenticity, which was in turn associated with less interest in the position. Study 2 (N = 240 women) showed that expressing masculine characteristics in a written “application” led to lower levels of authenticity and, in turn, less interest in the position. This effect occurred most strongly among women relatively high in feminine identification and low in masculine identification. These studies indicate that women who express masculine characteristics in science settings may experience less authenticity, which can in turn contribute to diminished interest in a science position. These findings suggest that efforts to improve women’s experiences in stereotypically masculine settings should focus on mitigating psychological connections between gender and success in those settings.

同化削弱真实性:男性背景下女性男性自我呈现的后果

我们测试了女性的真实感是否会因男性特征的表达而受到影响,以及真实感是否直接或间接地将男性表达与对科学职位的兴趣减弱联系起来。在研究 1 (N = 105) 中,我们随机分配女本科生来展示自己具有传统的高度男性化特征或非男性化特征。他们录制了一个科学实验室职位的“采访”视频,并报告了他们对真实性的感受。男性表达条件下的女性报告的真实性较低,这反过来与对该职位的兴趣较低有关。研究 2(N = 240 名女性)表明,在书面“申请”中表达男性特征会降低真实性,反过来,对该职位的兴趣较少。这种影响在女性认同相对较高而男性认同相对较低的女性中最为明显。这些研究表明,在科学环境中表现出男性特征的女性可能会体验到较少的真实性,这反过来又会导致对科学职位的兴趣减弱。这些研究结果表明,在刻板的男性化环境中改善女性体验的努力应该侧重于减轻这些环境中性别与成功之间的心理联系。希望使用本文进行教学的教师的在线幻灯片可在 PWQ 的网站上找到:http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/suppl/10.1177/0361684320947648 这种影响在女性认同相对较高而男性认同相对较低的女性中最为明显。这些研究表明,在科学环境中表现出男性特征的女性可能会体验到较少的真实性,这反过来又会导致对科学职位的兴趣减弱。这些研究结果表明,在刻板的男性化环境中改善女性体验的努力应该侧重于减轻这些环境中性别与成功之间的心理联系。希望使用本文进行教学的教师的在线幻灯片可在 PWQ 的网站上找到:http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/suppl/10.1177/0361684320947648 这种影响在女性认同相对较高而男性认同相对较低的女性中最为明显。这些研究表明,在科学环境中表现出男性特征的女性可能会体验到较少的真实性,这反过来又会导致对科学职位的兴趣减弱。这些研究结果表明,改善女性在陈规定型男性化环境中的体验的努力应侧重于减轻这些环境中性别与成功之间的心理联系。希望使用本文进行教学的教师的在线幻灯片可在 PWQ 的网站上找到:http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/suppl/10.1177/0361684320947648 这反过来又会导致对科学职位的兴趣减弱。这些研究结果表明,在刻板的男性化环境中改善女性体验的努力应该侧重于减轻这些环境中性别与成功之间的心理联系。希望使用本文进行教学的教师的在线幻灯片可在 PWQ 的网站上找到:http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/suppl/10.1177/0361684320947648 这反过来又会导致对科学职位的兴趣减弱。这些研究结果表明,在刻板的男性化环境中改善女性体验的努力应该侧重于减轻这些环境中性别与成功之间的心理联系。希望使用本文进行教学的教师的在线幻灯片可在 PWQ 的网站上找到:http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/suppl/10.1177/0361684320947648
