Evidence suggests that accents can be typically more powerful in activating ethnicity categorization than appearance. Concurrently, some social categories, such as ethnicity, can be linked with other categories, such as religion. We investigate how people categorize those who belong to a (mis)matching pair of categories? In the present study, we investigated Germans’ categorization of women either wearing a headscarf (Muslim religious symbol), or not, and speaking either standard German or German with an Arabic accent. The “Who Said What?” paradigm and multinomial modelling yielded that category memory, indicative of subtyping, was best for nonprototypical targets (i.e., headscarf and standard German accent, no headscarf and Arabic accent). In contrast, in-group targets (no headscarf and standard German accent) were individually remembered better than all other targets, whereas nonprototypical targets (no-headscarf and Arabic accent) were not remembered individually at all. These findings are discussed in terms of intersectionality and category prototypicality.

人们还记得什么是原型吗？口音-宗教交叉对个人和类别记忆的作用

有证据表明，在激活种族分类方面，口音通常比外表更强大。同时，某些社会类别（例如种族）可以与其他类别（例如宗教）联系起来。我们调查人们如何对属于（错误）匹配的类别的人进行分类？在本研究中，我们调查了德国人对戴头巾（穆斯林宗教标志）或不戴头巾、说标准德语或带有阿拉伯口音的德语的女性的分类。“谁说了什么？” 范式和多项式建模产生了表示子类型的类别记忆，最适合非原型目标（即头巾和标准德国口音，没有头巾和阿拉伯口音）。相比之下，组内目标（不戴头巾和标准德国口音）的个人记忆力比所有其他目标都要好，而非原型目标（不戴头巾和阿拉伯口音）则根本无法单独记住。这些发现在交叉性和类别原型方面进行了讨论。
