Gender stereotypes and discrimination

Abstract

Papers of this panel present different research questions in different social settings, but they all have one thing in common: they address the impact of human perception on different disadvantaged groups. Tatia Kekelia’s paper is about gender stereotypes and how they shape women’s lives in Georgia; Francesca Bramucci analyzes the influence of persuasion and social norms on the treatment of LGBTQIA* groups, whereas Ioana Cerasella studies how the meaning of productivity (i.e. its perception) affects gig economy workers in UK subjected to disablement and exploitation. She explores the role of human imagination not only as a discriminating tool, but as a possible solution to work problems as well. All three authors use qualitative methods such as in-depth face-to-face interviews, expert interviews, critical literature analysis, field experiment, etc.
