  • Explaining Gender‐Based Language Use: Effects of Gender Identity Salience on References to Emotion and Tentative Language in Intra‐ and Intergroup Contexts
    Human Communication Research, 2008
    Co-Authors: Nicholas A. Palomares
    Abstract:

    An experiment tested hypotheses derived from self-categorization theory’s explanation for gender-based language use. Under high or low conditions of gender salience, men and women sent e-mail to an ostensible male or female recipient yielding either an intra- or an intergroup setting. Gender salience was manipulated so that the stereotypically Feminine Characteristic of supportiveness was the sole attribute that defined the prototype of intergender relations. Messages were examined for references to emotion and tentative language. Women referenced emotion significantly more than men in the high gender salience condition, but this gender difference was reduced when salience was low. Moreover, women with high gender salience in an intergroup context referenced emotion more than women with high salience in an intragroup setting or men with high salience in either an intra- or an intergroup context. Tentative language use, however, was similar across all conditions as anticipated.

  • Gender Role Characteristics and Entrepreneurial Self-Efficacy: A Comparative Study of Female and Male Entrepreneurs in China.
    Frontiers in psychology, 2020
    Co-Authors: Diana Bilimoria, Yelin Wang, Xiaowei Guo
    Abstract:

    This study, based on Bem's (1974) gender schema theory, investigates gender differences in and the relationship between gender role Characteristics and entrepreneurial self-efficacy (ESE) of 261 female and 265 male entrepreneurs in China. The results show that male and female entrepreneurs did not differ significantly in ESE or in masculine gender role Characteristics, but differed significantly in Feminine gender role Characteristics. Examining four different stages in the entrepreneurial life cycle, we find that for female entrepreneurs, Feminine Characteristics had a positive influence on ESE in the searching and planning stages of entrepreneurship, and masculine Characteristics had a positive influence on ESE in the searching stage. For male entrepreneurs, Feminine Characteristics had a positive influence on ESE in the searching and planning stages, and masculine Characteristics had a positive influence on ESE in the marshaling and implementing stages. In addition, one Feminine Characteristic, "Friendly," showed a positive association with male entrepreneurs' ESE in the marshaling stage. Overall, the Feminine gender role factor of "Friendly" and the masculine gender role factor of "Compete" played a greater role on ESE than other Characteristics. Implications of the findings are discussed. This study contributes a new perspective to extant research on entrepreneurial self-efficacy and female entrepreneurship.
