This study examined the use of hesitations and discourse markers such as "uh" and "like," sex of an interviewee, and professional or student participants on hiring decisions of job interviewees. Participants consisted of 105 students between the ages of 18 to 43 years and 71 professionals between the ages of 22 to 76 years (120 women, 56 men). Adult professionals and students were least likely to want to hire, perceived the applicant as less professional, and were less likely to recommend the interviewee for hiring if the interviewee overused the word "like" compared to "uh" or control. Professionals were less likely than students overall to want to hire interviewees across conditions. Sex of the interviewee was not found to be significant.
本研究考察了犹豫现象和话语标记(如“呃”和“像”)的使用、受访者的性别以及专业人士或学生参与者对求职者招聘决策的影响。参与者包括105名年龄在18至43岁之间的学生和71名年龄在22至76岁之间的专业人士(120名女性,56名男性)。与使用“呃”或处于控制组的情况相比,如果受访者过度使用“像”这个词,成年专业人士和学生最不愿意聘用该受访者,认为其专业性较差,也不太可能推荐其获得聘用。总体而言,在各种情况下,专业人士比学生更不愿意聘用受访者。未发现受访者的性别有显著影响。
