[Corpora-List] language and gender

[R.M.Salkie at bton.ac.uk]

Has anyone ever transcribed some spoken data (or modified the recording
so that speakers' gender was not obvious), and then asked subjects to
judge which speakers were male and which were female?  I also have
students looking for topics in this area.  -- Raf Salkie, University of

Subject: [Corpora-List] language and gender

 

Can anyone recommend any easily accessible corpus-based studies of
gender differences in language use? Some of my students are looking for
topics in this area for their assignment, which involves taking an
existing study and replicating it with parameters more or less changed
depending on what it is. Quite a few of them are interested in this
particular issue.
