Working papers

This project aims to quantify 100 years of gender stereotypes in Japan. By utilizing the large amount of data offered by the Japanese National Diet Library, we train word embeddings for each year to measure people’s stereotypes. While word embeddings are increasingly used to measure historical stereotypes, most studies use English data. We examine whether we can replicate similar results in Japanese or uncover any limitations.
