这项研究审查了歧视和骚扰在多大程度上造成了性别健康差异。通过分析2006年、2010年和2014年的综合社会调查数据(N = 3,724),我们提出了以下问题:(1)对工作场所性别歧视和性骚扰的看法在多大程度上与自我报告的身心健康相关?(2)多种形式的工作场所虐待(例如,种族歧视、年龄歧视和性别歧视)联合收割机构成了工人自我评估的健康状况?以及(3)在何种程度上,虐待的看法有助于自我评估的健康的性别差距?多变量分析表明,在女性中,而不是男性,工作场所性别歧视的看法与心理健康状况不佳呈负相关,性骚扰的看法与身体健康状况不佳相关。在男子和妇女中,对多种形式虐待的看法与心理健康状况恶化有关。性别歧视部分解释了自我报告的心理健康方面的性别差距。
This study examines the extent to which discrimination and harassment contribute to gendered health disparities. Analyzing data from the 2006, 2010, and 2014 General Social Surveys (N = 3,724), we ask the following: (1) To what extent are perceptions of workplace gender discrimination and sexual harassment associated with self-reported mental and physical health? (2) How do multiple forms of workplace mistreatment (e.g., racism, ageism, and sexism) combine to structure workers' self-assessed health? and (3) To what extent do perceptions of mistreatment contribute to the gender gap in self-assessed health? Multivariate analyses show that among women, but not men, perceptions of workplace gender discrimination are negatively associated with poor mental health, and perceptions of sexual harassment are associated with poor physical health. Among men and women, perceptions of multiple forms of mistreatment are associated with worse mental health. Gender discrimination partially explains the gender gap in self-reported mental health.
