作者:
Highlights:
• We assessed the effects of a sexist hashtag on the social media site Twitter.
• The affordances of anonymity and interactivity were manipulated.
• Anonymous participants reported more post-task sexism than identifiable participants.
• Writing sexist tweets (higher interactivity) led to more sexism than retweeting.
• Higher interactivity led to more negative evaluations of female job candidates.
