Although reintegrative shaming theory suggests that, in comparison to males, females are more interdependent and thus susceptible to reintegrative rather than disintegrative shaming, it is unclear how gender affects the type of shame experienced when considering interpersonal dynamics within restorative justice conferences. The involvement of the community within these conferences may affect how offenders are viewed, especially when considering the stigma female offenders experience for violating legal and gender norms. Using data from the Reintegrative Shaming Experiments, we find that interdependency conditions how gender affects the experience of shaming based on the type of others with whom offenders are interdependent.

尽管重新整合羞辱理论表明，与男性相比，女性更加相互依赖，因此更容易受到重新整合而不是瓦解羞辱的影响，但在恢复性司法会议中考虑人际动态时，尚不清楚性别如何影响所经历的羞耻类型。社区对这些会议的参与可能会影响如何看待罪犯，尤其是考虑到女性罪犯因违反法律和性别规范而遭受的耻辱时。使用来自重新整合羞辱实验的数据，我们发现，基于犯罪者与之相互依赖的其他人的类型，相互依赖决定了性别如何影响羞辱体验。
