Situated within the public will and political will framework, this paper explores frames to address the social issue of gender pay inequity. Specifically, the authors examine whether demographic characteristics affect perceived acceptability of different frames describing gender pay inequity and perceptions of this social issue. First, the authors identified 26 terms used to discuss gender pay inequity; this list was narrowed to 12, representing four categories. Next, the authors solicited sentiment reactions to those frames and perceptions of gender pay inequity. Taken together, the results indicated that although respondents had consistently positive reactions to the frames fair pay, equal pay, and pay fairness, perceptions varied across demographic groups. The biggest effects were consistently for political party-related variables. One frame, strategic compensation practices, emerged as a value-neutral frame that could potentially be used to reframe the issue and re-engage business and political stakeholders who do not perceive gender pay inequity as problematic.

我们可以谈谈薪酬歧视/同工同酬/战略薪酬实践吗？构建性别薪酬不平等的探索性研究

在公共意愿和政治意愿框架内，本文探讨了解决性别薪酬不平等社会问题的框架。具体来说，作者研究了人口特征是否会影响描述性别薪酬不平等的不同框架的感知可接受度以及对这一社会问题的看法。首先，作者确定了 26 个用于讨论性别薪酬不平等的术语；这个名单被缩小到 12 个，代表四个类别。接下来，作者征求了人们对这些框架的情绪反应以及对性别薪酬不平等的看法。综上所述，结果表明，尽管受访者对公平薪酬、同工同酬和薪酬公平的框架持积极反应，但不同人口群体的看法各不相同。最大的影响始终是与政党相关的变量。一帧，
