The current research tests a model for understanding how benevolent sexism undermines, whereas hostile sexism promotes, social change. Study 1 (N = 99) and Study 2 (N = 92) demonstrate that exposing women to benevolent sexism decreases their engagement in collective action, whereas exposure to hostile sexism increases it. Both effects were mediated by gender-specific system justification and perceived advantages of being a woman. In Study 2, positive and negative affect also mediated these relationships. Results from Studies 3 and 4 (N = 68 and N = 37) support the causal chain described in the mediational models tested in Studies 1 and 2. Manipulations that increased gender-specific system justification (Study 3) and perceived advantages of being a woman (Study 4) reduced intentions to participate in collective action.
当前的研究检验了一个理解良性性别歧视如何破坏、而敌意性别歧视如何促进社会变革的模型。研究 1(N=99)和研究 2(N=92)表明,让女性接触良性性别歧视会降低她们参与集体行动的意愿,而接触敌意性别歧视则会增加这种意愿。这两种影响都通过性别特定的系统辩护和对作为女性的优势的感知来介导。在研究 2 中,积极和消极的影响也介导了这些关系。研究 3(N=68)和研究 4(N=37)的结果支持了在研究 1 和 2 中测试的中介模型中描述的因果关系。增加性别特定系统辩护(研究 3)和对作为女性的优势的感知(研究 4)的操纵会降低参与集体行动的意愿。
