DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The aim of this 4-study, laboratory-based project is to investigate how dispositional (sexual prejudice, gender role beliefs, masculine gender role stress, psychopathy), situational (alcohol intoxication, gender role violations), affective, and contextual variables (provocation, masculinity threats) facilitate antigay aggression. In Studies 1-3, aggression will be measured using a modified version of the Taylor Aggression Paradigm (Taylor, 1967) in which participants administer and receive mild electric shocks to/from a fictitious opponent under the guise of a competitive reaction time task. Dispositional variables will be measured using validated self-report measures. Each study will recruit 320 adult male heterosexual participants who will be randomly assigned to compete against a heterosexual or gay male. However, each study will examine the effects of different experimental manipulations (that correspond to the long-term goals of the project) on antigay aggression. Study 1 participants will view a video depicting gender conforming or non-conforming behavior between heterosexual or gay male dyads, respectively; Study 2 participants will experience a masculinity threat from a male confederate; Study 3 will examine the effect of acute alcohol intoxication on antigay aggression toward heterosexual and homosexual men and women. Each study will assess state affect via self-report scales before and after presentation of the stimulus videos. In Studies 2 and 3, state masculine affiliation will be assessed after participants receive feedback from a male peer and after completing the competitive reaction time task. Study 4 will explore the interactive effect of sexual prejudice, gender role violations, and dispositional variables on state affect in women. Participants will be 120 adult heterosexual women who complete dispositional inventories and measures of state affect and view a video depicting either gender conforming or non-conforming behavior between heterosexual or lesbian dyads, respectively. This project will identify risk factors for antigay violence in men as well as provide new data regarding female sexual prejudice. In doing so, we will improve our knowledge of antigay violence and discrimination which, in the future, may facilitate the development of prevention and treatment interventions.

描述（由申请人提供）：这个基于实验室的 4 项研究项目的目的是 调查性格（性偏见、性别角色信念、男性性别角色压力、精神病）、情境（酒精中毒、性别角色侵犯）、情感和情境变量（挑衅、男性气质威胁）如何促进反同性恋攻击。在研究 1-3 中，将使用泰勒攻击范式（Taylor，1967）的修改版本来测量攻击性，其中参与者在竞争性反应时间任务的幌子下对虚构的对手进行轻微的电击并从中接受轻微的电击。将使用经过验证的自我报告措施来测量倾向变量。每项研究将招募 320 名成年男性异性恋参与者，他们将被随机分配与异性恋或男同性恋者竞争。然而，每项研究都将检查不同的实验操作（与该项目的长期目标相对应）对反同性恋攻击的影响。研究 1 参与者将观看一段视频，分别描述异性恋或男同性恋二人组之间的性别顺从或不顺从行为；研究 2 的参与者将经历来自男性同盟者的男子气概威胁；研究 3 将研究急性酒精中毒对异性恋和同性恋男性和女性的反同性恋攻击行为的影响。每项研究都将通过刺激视频呈现前后的自我报告量表来评估状态影响。在研究 2 和 3 中，在参与者收到男性同伴的反馈并完成竞争性反应时间任务后，将评估男性归属感。研究 4 将探讨性偏见、性别角色违规和性格变量对女性状态影响的交互影响。参与者将是 120 名成年异性恋女性，她们完成性格调查和状态影响测量，并观看一段分别描述异性恋或女同性恋二人组之间符合性别或不符合性别行为的视频。该项目将确定男性反同性恋暴力的风险因素，并提供有关女性性偏见的新数据。在此过程中，我们将提高对反同性恋暴力和歧视的了解，这在未来可能会促进预防和治疗干预措施的发展。
