Project OSF site: https://osf.io/7xsgr/ How can comments like “You’re actually good at math” be compliments to some, but microaggressions to others? Differences across listeners likely arise from variations in their underlying beliefs: when “actually” or “for a woman” is regarded as unnecessary given the contextual assumptions, it triggers the microaggression interpretation: the speaker did not treat the information as expected. We predicted derivations of such interpretations based on a)political party affiliation, b)beliefs about implicit sexism, and c)subjective estimates of information amount carried by the adverbials. These results present novel evidence that variations in listeners’ linguistic and non-linguistic beliefs combine to predict pragmatic interpretations.
