Abstract
Zusammenfassung: Zahlreiche Paradigmen in verschiedenen Bereichen der kognitiven Sozialpsychologie erfordern Beschreibungen von Verhaltensweisen als Stimulusmaterial. Unseres Wissens liegt im deutschsprachigen Raum keine Normierung vor, auf die bei der Materialerstellung für entsprechende Untersuchungen zurückgegriffen werden könnte. Es wurden 165 positive und 165 parallel formulierte negative Verhaltensbeschreibungen generiert und zwei für psychologische Experimente typischen Stichproben von jeweils 60 männlichen und 60 weiblichen Studierenden in Form eines Fragebogens vorgelegt. Die Items wurden hinsichtlich ihrer Valenz und Geschlechtstypikalität auf einer 7-stufigen Skala eingeschätzt. Die zweite Stichprobe bearbeitete zusätzlich eine deutsche Fassung des Bem Sex Role Inventory (Schneider-Düker & Kohler, 1988), um Einflüsse der Geschlechtsrollenidentität auf die Geschlechtstypikalitätsurteile abzuklären. Die Verhaltensbeschreibungen decken einen weiten Bereich unterschiedlicher Valenz und Geschlechtstypikalität ab. Die Urteilerübereinstimmung fällt auf beiden Dimensionen zufriedenstellend hoch aus. Es können Itemsets mit unterschiedlichen Eigenschaften zusammengestellt werden, so daß das normierte Material vielseitig verwendbar ist.
Summary: Numerous paradigms in social cognition require behavior descriptions as stimulus material. To our knowledge, in the German speech community, there is no standardized material available. 165 positive and 165 parallel negative behavior descriptions were generated and presented to two, with respect to psychological experiments representative, samples of 60 male and 60 female students each. The items' valence and gender typicality were judged on a 7-point scale. The second sample was additionally administered a German version of the Bem Sex Role Inventory (Schneider-Düker & Kohler, 1988) in order to analyse influences of gender-related attitudes. The behavior descriptions cover a wide range of valence and gender typicality. Interrater reliability was satisfactorily high on both judgment dimensions. Sets with different characterstics can be drawn, so that the material can be used for diverse studies in the field.
