论文摘要
我们探讨了性别和形式组织地位对讨论联系形成的影响。网络数据是通过从美国市政组织的调查员工收集的，获得了92％的响应率（n = 143）。指数随机图建模的结果表明，女性主管更有可能发送讨论联系，而女性通常更有可能接受讨论联系。这些探索结果表明，女性可能被认为是工作讨论的更容易，而不是作为主管。最后，结果确定了在讨论网络中性别的一致均匀效应。
We explore the influence of gender and formal organizational status on the formation of discussion ties. Network data, gathered through surveying employees from a municipal organization in the United States, garnered a 92% response rate (n=143). Results of exponential random graph modeling indicate women supervisors are more likely to send discussion ties, while women in general are more likely to receive discussion ties. These exploratory results suggest women may be perceived as more approachable for work discussions, but not as supervisors. Finally, the results identified a consistent homophily effect of gender in the discussion network.
