ABSTRACT

Using the results of an Amazon Turk survey of 500 people, both men and women, the authors examine whether toxic masculinity influenced men and women’s belief in myths during the early part of the COVID-19 pandemic. While public appearances may have shown that men were more resistant to public health campaigns and more receptive to health care myths, this survey shows men and women’s responses were much closer in belief and disbelief in myths than they diverged.

“男性气质”、女性气质和流行病：性别和对 COVID-19 神话的信仰

摘要

作者利用 Amazon Turk 对 500 名男性和女性进行的调查结果，研究了在 COVID-19 大流行初期，有毒的男子气概是否影响了男性和女性对神话的信仰。虽然公开露面可能表明男性更抵制公共卫生运动，更容易接受医疗保健神话，但这项调查显示，男性和女性对神话的相信和不相信的反应比差异更接近。
