本研究旨在探讨污名化群体成员如何通过在面试情境中直接承认其污名化状况的策略来纠正招聘偏见。在第一项研究中,125名参与者回答了一个关于肥胖或身体残疾的求职者的录像采访,这些求职者要么承认,要么不承认。在第二项研究中,87名参与者对操纵污名类型、其发生的可控性和承认的情景做出了回应。两个实验的结果都表明,在就业环境中不承认自己肥胖或身体残疾的申请人并没有受到不同的对待。然而,如果申请人承认,感知的可控性的耻辱强烈影响他们将如何看待。
The current research examines how members of stigmatized groups remediate hiring biases by adopting the strategy of directly acknowledging their stigmatizing condition within the interview context. In the first study, 125 participants responded to a videotaped interview involving an obese or physically disabled job applicant who either did or did not acknowledge a stigma. In the second study, 87 participants responded to scenarios that manipulated type of stigma, controllability of its onset, and acknowledgment. Results across both experiments reveal that applicants who did not acknowledge their obesity or physical disability in an employment context were not viewed differently from each other. However, if applicants did acknowledge, the perceived controllability of the stigmas strongly influenced how they would be perceived.
