英语话语风格中的性别差异

Gender Differences in English Conversational Style

回顾了男女两性话语风格的主要差异并评析了四种相应的解释理论,并指出研究者只有充分考虑了除性别以外的其它因素,如种族、文化、会话场合、会话人之间的角色关系等对话语风格影响,才能科学地解释话语风格中的性别差异。

The paper reviews the main differences between male and female conversational styles, and analyzes the four explanatory theories. The paper also points out that only when other factors like ethnicity, culture, setting and role relationships are fully taken into consideration apart from gender, can researchers scientifically explain gender differences in conversational style.
