【摘要】：本研究和以前对流行歌词中女性形象的研究不同,重点在于对男歌手(包括成员均为男性的乐队组合,乐队成员不一定都是男性但歌手为男性的乐队组合)及女歌手(包括成员均为女性的乐队组合,乐队成员不一定都是女性但歌手为女性的乐队组合)所演唱流行歌曲歌词中的女性形象进行共时和历时的对比。根据社会认同理论及性别和认识的关系,本论文想要验证是否男歌手歌词中女性形象的否定、消极的程度较高;同时,又根据文化和认识的关系,希望能够对男女歌手所唱出的女性形象在美国特定社会文化背景(1960-2003)下的变化趋势有一正确的认识。由此希望揭示出对女性形象的认识是怎样受到性别和文化的影响的。本研究分析了1960-2003 年中涉及男女关系的流行歌曲(爱情歌曲/含有性意味的或是色情歌曲),为方便进行历时变化的对比,43 年被分为五个阶段,希望能够解决以下四个问题: 问题一:1960-2003 的每一阶段中,男女歌手所演唱的歌曲词中女性形象的不同点是什么? 问题二:1960-2003 年中,男歌手词中体现出的消极否定的女性形象是否有一个历时的减少趋势?或是相反? 问题三:1960-2003 年中,女歌手中消极否定的女性形象是否有一个历时的减少趋势?或是相反? 问题四:整个1960-2003 中,男女歌手所演唱的歌曲中女性形象的不同点是什么? 并且就以上四个问题作出五个假设。其后对1960-2003 年期间“排行榜”中涉及男女关系的125 首歌进行分析。采用六个变量来分析歌词中体现出的消极的女性形象:柔顺性、支持性、感情联系性,依赖性,性对象和不平等性来进行分析。本研究采用Likert 五点法来为歌曲样本编码。编码数据采用SPSS 软件(12.0 版本)进行统计分析。数据分析后,得到如下结论: 1) 1960-2003 年四十三年间的每一阶段,男歌手歌曲中所体现出来的女性形象并不如我们所预想的比女歌手当中的更为消极否定。相反,在每一时期,对有显著不同的变量而言,除1996-2003 年阶段的“性对象”这一变量而外,女歌手歌曲中所体现出来的女性形象比男歌手中的更为消极、否定。 2) 在四十三年间,男歌手和女歌手歌词当中刻板、消极的女性形象并没有如同本研究最初所假设的呈现下降趋势。
[Abstract]:Unlike previous studies on female images in popular lyrics, this study focuses on male singers, including bands with male members.Band members are not necessarily male but singers are male bands) and female singers (including bands with female members),Band members are not necessarily female but singers are female bands.) the female characters in the lyrics of pop songs are compared in synchronic and diachronic ways.According to the theory of social identity and the relationship between gender and cognition, this thesis wants to verify whether the negative degree of female image in the lyrics of male singers is high, and at the same time, according to the relationship between culture and cognition,It is hoped that we can have a correct understanding of the changing trend of female figures sung by male and female singers under the specific sociocultural background of the United States (1960-2003).The author hopes to reveal how the understanding of female image is influenced by gender and culture.This study analyzed the relationship between men and women in 1960-2003 pop songs (love songs / sexual or pornographic songs), in order to facilitate diachronic changes in 43 years were divided into five stages, hoping to solve the following four problems:Question 1: at each stage of 1960-2003, what are the differences between female images in the songs sung by male and female singers?Question 2: in 1960-2003, is there a diachronic decline in the negative female image reflected in male singers' lyrics?Or the opposite?Question 3: in 1960-2003, is there a downward trend in negative female images among female singers?Or the opposite?Question 4: throughout 1960-2003, what are the differences between female images in songs sung by male and female singers?And make five hypotheses on the above four questions.Then it analyzed 125 songs about relationship between men and women in the rankings between 1960 and 2003.Six variables are used to analyze the negative female images in the lyrics: compliance, support, emotional connection, dependence, sex objects and inequality.In this study, the Likert five-point method was used to encode the song samples.The coded data were analyzed by SPSS software version 12.0.After analysis of the data, the following conclusions were drawn:1) at every stage of the 43 years from 1960 to 2003, the female image in the male singer's songs was not as negative as we expected.On the contrary, for the significantly different variables in each period, with the exception of the "sex object" in the period 1996-2003, female singers' images of women in songs are more negative and negative than those of male singers.2) in 43 years, the stereotype of male and female singers' lyrics did not show the downward trend as originally assumed in this study.
