女性主义的交叉性理论认为,社会类别的经验,如性别,根据背景和人口因素而变化,可以通过捕捉和分析参与者的自我表达来最好地理解。社交媒体为研究这一现象提供了一个新的环境。我们研究了参与者在增加工程多样性运动中的自我表达(#ILookLikeanEngineer)发现,与交叉性观点一致,除了他们作为工程师的身份外,参与者还选择:a)扩展并提供有关其工程身份的细节; B)表达他们与机构或公司的联系; c)表达了他们身份的个人方面,如家庭或爱好; d)表示支持他们认识的某个工程师; e)表示声援与多样性有关的其他社会事业; f)表达了对该运动的热情或幽默地提到了该运动。这项研究强调了当人们自我表达时产生的身份认同的内在复杂性。
The feminist theory of intersectionality asserts that experiences of social categories, such as gender, vary based on context and demographic factors and can be best understood by capturing and analyzing participants' self-expressions. Social media provide a novel setting to study this phenomenon. We examined participants' self-expressions on a campaign for increasing engineering diversity (#ILookLikeanEngineer) and found that, consistent with an intersectionality perspective, in addition to their identity as an engineer, participants opted to: a) expand upon and provide specifics about their engineering identity; b) expressed their affiliation with an institution or company; c) expressed personal aspects of their identity such as family or hobbies; d) expressed support for someone they knew who was an engineer; e) expressed solidarity with other social causes related to diversity; and f) expressed enthusiasm for or mentioned the campaign humorously. This study highlights the inherent complexity of identify that arises when people self-express themselves.
