对在线新闻组中表情符号(情感图标)使用的分析似乎强化了情感女性和缺乏表达的男性的刻板印象,直到进一步的检查表明并非如此。这项研究最有趣的发现是,当两种性别从以同性别为主的新闻组转变为混合性别新闻组时所发生的变化模式。从同性新闻组转向混合性别新闻组时表情符号使用发生的变化表明,男性的表情符号编码并没有使女性的情感表达变得沉默或沉默,而是采用了表达更多情感的女性标准。此外,女性还增加了包括团结、支持、表达积极情感和感谢在内的维度,而这些在男性创建的表情符号定义及其使用中是不存在的。
The analysis of emoticon (emotional icon) use in online newsgroups appears to reinforce the stereotype of the emotional female and the inexpressive male until further examination suggests otherwise. The most interesting finding of this study is illustrated by the pattern of change that develops for both genders when they move from a predominantly same gender newsgroup to a mixed-gender newsgroup. The changes that take place in emoticon use when moving from same-gender to mixed-gender newsgroups indicate that rather than the emotional expression of females being silenced or muted by male encoding of emoticons, males adopt the female standard of expressing more emotion. Furthermore, women have added dimensions including solidarity, support, assertion of positive feelings, and thanks, which were absent from the male-created definition of emoticons and their use.
