Gender, Interactions, Competition, BiasAbstract
Traditional media has portrayed both genders in a biased manner, displaying differences in roles and personalities; this biased portrayal has a variety of impacts on people’s lives and careers. The aim of this paper is to analyze interactions between each gender on the show Cutthroat Kitchen through a content analysis to discover whether or not gender impacts interaction types and frequencies. Ultimately, this paper has concluded that gender does affect interactions on the show due to the differing frequencies for various types of interactions such as insults and threats. Furthermore, the frequency of each gender initiating interactions differs along with the connotation of said interactions. These findings of this study have implications on the field of social psychology and the casting of reality T.V. shows, especially food-based ones.
