absolutely key as a methods point

your familiarity finding makes sense to me too as part of the mechanism. i'm not sure if it's all of it given that in text data (presumbly?) authors know the referent's gender? hope we get a chance to chat in person later this week

is it this paper? I don't think I'd seen this yet!

it's an interesting/troubling finding if it replicates. it seems to me like a potentially unique form of 'othering' given the primacy of gender in attributions of humanity (ala Ashely Martin's work)

male and female names that are common among self-identified Asian people were relatively unassociated with male and female gender concepts (e.g., "man" "woman") relative to White and Hispanic names

in a supplementary analysis this was much stronger for East Asian than South Asian names

this is on my list! excited for it.

as an aside, one of our recent findings might be of particular interest to this group

we find evidence of "degendering" in large-scale (mostly) English-langauge text about Asian people, esp East Asian: doi.org/10.1177/0146...
