Description
Summary:becomes clear using the example of the Smurfs, the tendency becomes apparent that in children’s television shows men invent a world populated by male beings with only one female character, which is then often depicted in a state of dependence upon the male characters. How do women, who create stories for children’s television, go In a about this?quantitative content analysis of German children’s television, it is shown that women create stories for children, which are closer to the actually existing gender distribution, narrate more diverse characters with regard to ethnic backgrounds and are more inclined to adhere to the reality-orientation of the children. With regard to problem-solving strategies, they often resort to communication as well as magic, whereas men choose combat and STEM approaches.
Wie am Beispiel der Schlümpfe deutlich wird, zeigt sich im Kinderfernsehen die Tendenz, dass Männer eine Welt von männlichen Wesen mit nur einer weiblichen Figur erfinden, die dann zumeist noch in Abhängigkeit von diesen männlichen Figuren steht. Wie aber machen es Frauen, die Geschichten für das Kinderfernsehen erfinden? In einer quantitativen Inhaltsanalyse des deutschen Kinderfernsehens wird nachgewiesen, dass Frauen Geschichten für Kinder kreieren, die näher am real existierenden Geschlechterverhältnis sind, diversere Figuren erzählen, was den ethnischen Hintergrund betrifft, und eher an der Realität der Kinder bleiben. Bei den Problemlösestrategien greifen sie neben Kommunikation häufig auf Magie zurück, während Männer Kampf und MINT-Zugänge wählen.
