Gender-Inclusive Language

What this handout is about.

This handout will help you make decisions about using gendered language in your writing.

What is gendered language, and why should you be aware of it?

You have probably encountered documents that use masculine nouns and pronouns to refer to subject(s) whose gender is unclear or variable, or to groups that contain people who are not actually men. For example, the U.S. Declaration of Independence states that “all men are created equal.” Generations of Americans have been taught that in this context, the word “men” should be read as including both men and women. Other common instances of gendered language include words that assume connections between jobs or roles and gender (like “policeman”) and language conventions that differ depending on the gender of the person being discussed (like using titles that indicate a person’s marital status).

English has changed since the Declaration of Independence was written. Most readers no longer understand the word “man” to be synonymous with “person,” so clear communication requires writers to be more precise. And using gender-neutral language has become standard practice in both journalistic and academic writing, as you’ll see if you consult the style manuals for different academic disciplines (APA, MLA, and Chicago, for example).

Tackling gendered references in your writing can be challenging, especially since there isn’t (and may never be) a universally agreed upon set of concrete guidelines on which to base your decisions. But there are a number of different strategies you can “mix and match” as necessary.

Gendered nouns

“Man” and words ending in “-man” are the most commonly used gendered nouns in English. These words are easy to spot and replace with more neutral language, even in contexts where many readers strongly expect the gendered noun. For example, Star Trek writers developing material for contemporary viewers were able to create a more inclusive version of the famous phrase “where no man has gone before” while still preserving its pleasing rhythm: Star Trek explorers now venture “where no one has gone before.”

Here’s a list of gendered nouns and some alternatives listed below. Check a thesaurus for alternatives to gendered nouns not included in this list.

Sometimes writers modify nouns that refer to jobs or positions to indicate the sex of the person holding that position. This happens most often when the sex of the person goes against conventional expectations. For example, some people may assume, perhaps unconsciously, that doctors are men and that nurses are women. Sentences like “The female doctor walked into the room” or “The male nurse walked into the room” reinforce such assumptions. Unless the sex of the subject is important to the meaning of the sentence, it should be omitted. (Here’s an example where the health care professional’s sex might be relevant: “Some women feel more comfortable seeing female gynecologists.”)

Titles and names

Another example of gendered language is the way the titles “Mr.,” “Miss,” and “Mrs.” are used. “Mr.” can refer to any man, regardless of whether he is single or married, but “Miss” and “Mrs.” define women by whether they are married, which until quite recently meant defining them by their relationships with men. A simple alternative when addressing or referring to a woman is “Ms.” (which doesn’t indicate marital status).

Another note about titles: some college students are in the habit of addressing most women older than them, particularly teachers, as “Mrs.,” regardless of whether the woman in question is married. It’s worth knowing that many female faculty and staff (including married women) prefer to be addressed as “Ms.” or, if the term applies, “Professor” or “Dr.” It should also be noted that “Mx.” is the generally acknowledged gender-neutral honorific if “Professor” or “Dr.” does not apply.

Writers sometimes refer to women using only their first names in contexts where they would typically refer to men by their full names, last names, or titles. But using only a person’s first name is more informal and can suggest a lack of respect. For example, in academic writing, we don’t refer to William Shakespeare as “William” or “Will”; we call him “Shakespeare” or “William Shakespeare.” So we should refer to Jane Austen as “Austen” or “Jane Austen,” not just “Jane.”

Similarly, in situations where you would refer to a man by his full title, you should do the same for a woman. For example, if you wouldn’t speak of American President Reagan “Ronald” or “Ronnie,” avoid referring to British Prime Minister Thatcher as “Margaret” or “Maggie.”

A pronoun is a word that substitutes for a noun. The English language provides pronoun options for references to masculine nouns (for example, “he” can substitute for “Juan”), feminine nouns (“she” can replace “Keisha”), and neutral/non-human nouns (“it” can stand in for “a tree”). But English offers no widely-accepted pronoun choice for gender-neutral, third-person singular nouns that refer to people (“the writer,” “a student,” or “someone”). As we discussed at the beginning of this handout, the practice of using masculine pronouns (“he,” “his,” “him”) as the “default” is outdated and will confuse or offend many readers.

So what can you do when you’re faced with one of those gender-neutral or gender-ambiguous language situations? You have a couple of options.

1. Try making the nouns and pronouns plural

If it works for your particular sentence, using plural forms is often an excellent option. Here’s an example of a sentence that can easily be rephrased:

A student who loses too much sleep may have trouble focusing during [his/her] exams.

If we make “student” plural and adjust the rest of the sentence accordingly, there’s no need for gendered language (and no confusion or loss of meaning):

Students who lose too much sleep may have trouble focusing during their exams.

2. Use “they” as a singular pronoun

Most of the time, the word “they” refers to a plural antecedent. For example,

Because experienced hikers know that weather conditions can change rapidly, they often dress in layers.

But using “they” with a singular antecedent is not a new phenomenon, and while it’s less common in formal writing, it has become quite common in speech. In a conversation, many people would not even notice how “they” is being used here:

Look for the rental car company’s representative at the airport exit; they will be holding a sign with your name on it.

Some people are strongly opposed to the use of “they” with singular antecedents and are likely to react badly to writing that uses this approach. Others argue that “they” should be adopted as English’s standard third-person, gender-neutral pronoun in all writing and speaking contexts. “They” is the most respectful way to be mindful of those of all genders.

What if you’re not sure of someone’s gender?

You may sometimes find yourself needing to refer to a person whose gender you’re uncertain of. Perhaps you are writing a paper about the creator of an ancient text or piece of art whose identity (and therefore gender) is unknown–for example, we are not certain who wrote the 6th-century epic poem “Beowulf.” Perhaps you’re participating in an online discussion forum where the participants are known only by usernames like “PurpleOctopus25” or “I Love Big Yellow Fish.” You could be writing about someone you don’t personally know whose name is not clearly associated with a particular gender—someone named Sam Smith might be Samuel, Samantha, Samson, or something else—or the person’s name might be in a language you’re unfamiliar with (for example, if English is the only language you speak and read, you might have difficulty guessing the gender associated with a Chinese name). Or maybe you’re discussing a person whose name or pronouns have changed or whose gender identity is fluid. Perhaps your subject does not fit neatly into the categories of “man” and “woman” or rejects those categories entirely.

In these situations, in addition to using “they,” you could also try:

  • Refer to the person using a descriptive word or phrase: the writer of Beowulf is frequently referred to as “The Beowulf poet” or (in contexts where “Beowulf” is the only poem being discussed) “the poet.”
  • If the person is known to you only by a username, repeat the username or follow the standard practices of the forum–PurpleOctopus25 might become Purple or P.O. in subsequent references. (Advice columnists often use a similar strategy; if “I Love Big Yellow Fish” wrote to ask for advice, the columnist’s response might begin with “Dear Fish Lover.”)
  • If the person’s name is known, keep using the name rather than substituting a pronoun. Rephrase as necessary to reduce the number of times you must repeat it: “Blogger Sam Smith’s cats have apparently destroyed Smith’s furniture, stolen Smith’s sandwiches, and terrorized Smith, Smith’s dogs, and Smith’s housemate” could become “Blogger Sam Smith’s cats have apparently destroyed couches, stolen sandwiches, and terrorized their human and canine housemates.”
  • Do a little research: if you are writing about a public figure of any kind, chances are that others have also written about that person; you may be able to follow their lead. If you see multiple practices, imitate the ones that seem most respectful.

If you’re writing about someone you are in contact with, you can ask how that person would like to be referred to.

What about the content of the paper?

Much discussion about gendered language focuses on choosing the right words, but the kinds of information writers include or omit can also convey values and assumptions about gender. For example, think about the ways Barack and Michelle Obama have been presented in the media. Have you seen many discussions of Barack’s weight, hairstyle, and clothing? Many readers and viewers have pointed out that the appearance of female public figures (not just politicians, but actors, writers, activists, athletes, etc.) is discussed more often, more critically, and in far more detail than the appearance of men in similar roles. This pattern suggests that women’s appearance matters more than men’s does and is interesting and worthy of attention, regardless of the context.

Similarly, have you ever noticed patterns in the way that men’s and women’s relationships with their families are discussed (in person, online, or elsewhere)? When someone describes what a male parent does for his children as “babysitting” or discusses family leave policies without mentioning how they apply to men, you may wonder whether the speaker or writer is assuming that men are not interested in caring for their children.

These kinds of values and assumptions about gender can weaken arguments. In many of your college writing assignments, you’ll be asked to analyze something (an issue, text, event, etc.) and make an evidence-based argument about it. Your readers will critique your arguments in part by assessing the values and assumptions your claims rely on. They may look for evidence of bias, overgeneralization, incomplete knowledge, and so forth. Critically examining the role that gender has played in your decisions about the content of your paper can help you make stronger, more effective arguments that will be persuasive to a wide variety of readers, no matter what your topic is or what position you take.

Checklist for gender-related revisions

As you review your writing, ask yourself the following questions:

  • Have you used “man” or “men” or words containing them to refer to people who may not be men?
  • Have you used “he,” “him,” “his,” or “himself” to refer to people who may not be men?
  • If you have mentioned someone’s sex or gender, was it necessary to do so?
  • Do you use any occupational (or other) stereotypes?
  • Do you provide the same kinds of information and descriptions when writing about people of different genders?

Perhaps the best test for gender-inclusive language is to imagine a diverse group of people reading your paper. Would each reader feel respected?  Envisioning your audience is a critical skill in every writing context, and revising with a focus on gendered language is a perfect opportunity to practice.

Guiding questions

How can language be gender-biased?

How does language reinforce stereotypes or culturally received ideas about what different genders do, and don't do, think and don't think?

Does language reflect our world, or does it create it? Is English really a non-sexist language because it has no masculine and feminine forms?

Is there a difference in the way men and women use language to achieve the same things? What are things that men can get away with saying but women can't (or vice-versa)?

Language, Gender, and Sexuality by Lal Zimman , Kira Hall LAST REVIEWED: 17 July 2023 LAST MODIFIED: 28 June 2016 DOI: 10.1093/obo/9780199772810-0109

Research on language, gender, and sexuality has been advanced by scholars working in a variety of areas in sociocultural linguistics, among them conversation analysis, critical discourse analysis, discursive psychology, linguistic anthropology, sociophonetics, and variationist sociolinguistics. The relevance of gender to linguistic analysis was first noted in the early 20th century when descriptive linguists observed differences in female and male vocabularies and patterns of speaking in non-European languages. But it was not until the 1975 publication of Robin Lakoff’s Language and Woman’s Place ( Lakoff 1975 ), originally published as a lead article in a 1973 issue of Language in Society , that disparate work on language and gender began to coalesce as a field of study. Research during this era of second-wave feminism focused on the everyday micro-discourse practices of women and men as instantiating hierarchical power relations, analyzing such phenomena as turn-taking, interruptions, and topic uptake. Fifteen years later, Deborah Tannen popularized a “two-cultures” approach to language and gender in You Just Don’t Understand: Men and Women in Conversation ( Tannen 1990 ), which shifted the source of gender differentiation away from patriarchy and onto language socialization in same-sex peer groups. Lakoff’s and Tannen’s models—which came to be called the “dominance” and “difference” models, respectively—set the foundation for contemporary work on language and gender. In the mid-1990s, the field was revitalized by what is often referenced as the “discursive turn” in social theory. New theoretical work in post-structuralist and multicultural feminism, including the view of gender as produced in discourse instead of predetermined by biological sex, inspired new involvement by language scholars across the fields of anthropology, communication, education, linguistics, psychology, sociology, and women’s studies. The close analysis of gender in interaction demonstrated its intersectionality with other social categories, such as social class, race, ethnicity, age, and sexuality. Although work on language and sexuality preceded this development, this relationship too received renewed attention as scholars of language and gender came to recognize the heteronormativity that had implicitly shaped previous work in the field and began drawing on perspectives within the emergent field of queer theory. Gender and sexuality came to be seen as intimately connected in the language and gender literature, hence the field’s eventual designation in many publication domains as language, gender, and sexuality . This annotated bibliography aims to bring together socially oriented linguistic scholarship on both gender and sexuality while also recognizing the independent trajectories of these traditions of research. Although the bibliography at times treats gender and sexuality as separate topics for purposes of clarity or emphasis, research in these traditions remains closely intertwined.

Lakoff, Robin. 1975. Language and woman’s place . New York: Harper & Row.

Lakoff’s groundbreaking study of “women’s language” includes a range of observations about women’s linguistic subjugation. Focusing on the expectations placed on women’s language use, Lakoff uncovers women’s linguistic double-bind: either speak “like a lady” and undermine one’s interactional power, or bear the stigma of failing to adhere to gender norms.

Tannen, Deborah. 1990. You just don’t understand: Men and women in conversation . New York: Ballantine.

Designed for a general audience, You Just Don’t Understand combines reflections from Tannen’s research as well as illustrative anecdotes to advance the argument that gendered discourse patterns are formed in childhood playgroups. Though controversial in the field, the book remains an extremely influential text on miscommunication between women and men.

Because the study of language, gender, and sexuality has attracted scholars from diverse disciplines, many of the field’s most insightful overview articles introduce either specific topics of research, such as language and gender in workplace environments, or specific approaches or methods, such as conversation analysis. Many of these more streamlined overviews are cited later in this bibliography. Yet a number of cross-disciplinary reviews comprising research from a variety of topics and perspectives exist, among them Ehrlich and Meyerhoff 2014 , a state-of-the-art introduction to the second edition of The Handbook of Language, Gender, and Sexuality (published in first edition under the title The Handbook of Language and Gender ). Other article overviews published since 2000 have addressed developments in the use of feminist and critical gender theory within different traditions of research in the field, among them Bucholtz 2014 , Cameron 2005 , and McElhinny 2014 . The importance of the field’s social constructionist approaches to gender and language is reflected in Ehrlich 2004 , which also describes key developments in research on language and sexual violence. Overviews of research specifically focused on sexuality reflect diverging approaches to the field and include Kulick 2000 , Bucholtz and Hall 2004 , and Queen 2014 , which offer contrasting perspectives on the usefulness of identity as an analytic category.

Bucholtz, Mary. 2014. The feminist foundations of language, gender, and sexuality research. In The handbook of language, gender, and sexuality . 2d ed. Edited by Susan Ehrlich, Miriam Meyerhoff, and Janet Holmes, 23–47. Malden, MA: Wiley-Blackwell.

Bucholtz outlines how developments in the field of language, gender, and sexuality have been affected by developments in feminist theory. Her review describes influences from several feminist theoretical perspectives, among them liberal feminism, radical feminism, material feminism, multicultural feminism, postcolonial feminism, and queer theory.

Bucholtz, Mary, and Kira Hall. 2004. Theorizing identity in language and sexuality research. Language in Society 33.4: 469–515.

DOI: 10.1017/S0047404504334020

This critical review of research in language and sexuality advances an analytic framework for identity as emergent in interaction. In contrast to calls for a purely desire-centered approach to language and sexuality, the authors argue that desire is forged through intersubjectively negotiated practices and ideologies.

Cameron, Deborah. 2005. Language, gender, and sexuality: Current issues and new directions. Applied Linguistics 26.4: 482–502.

DOI: 10.1093/applin/ami027

Cameron outlines how sociolinguistic research on gender and sexuality has experienced a paradigmatic shift from a focus on binary difference to a focus on the diversity of identities and practices. The article discusses the theoretical foundations that have motivated this shift as well as its practical consequences with respect to empirical research.

Ehrlich, Susan. 2004. Language and gender. In The handbook of applied linguistics . Edited by Alan Davies and Catherine Elder, 304–327. Oxford: Blackwell.

DOI: 10.1002/9780470757000.ch12

This review, which draws on the author’s research on language and sexual violence, traces the development of social constructionism in language and gender research. The section on “institutional coerciveness” argues for the continued importance of considering relations of power, as highlighted by research on sexism, sexual harassment, and sexual assault.

Ehrlich, Susan, and Miriam Meyerhoff. 2014. Introduction: Language, gender, and sexuality. In The handbook of language, gender, and sexuality . 2d ed. Edited by Susan Ehrlich, Miriam Meyerhoff, and Janet Holmes, 21–42. Malden, MA: Blackwell.

In the introduction to the thirty-two chapters that constitute the second edition of The Handbook of Language, Gender, and Sexuality , Ehrlich and Meyerhoff provide a review of key themes and issues in the field. The introduction includes insightful discussions of performativity, queer linguistics, and globalization, among other subjects.

Kulick, Don. 2000. Gay and lesbian language. Annual Review of Anthropology 29:243–285.

DOI: 10.1146/annurev.anthro.29.1.243

This review of research on gay and lesbian language forges a strong critique of identity-based research in language and sexuality and advocates a desire-centered approach in its place. The critique was viewed by some as polemical, yet it ultimately inspired renewed attention to both identity and desire.

McElhinny, Bonnie. 2014. Theorizing gender in sociolinguistics and linguistic anthropology: Toward effective interventions in gender inequity. In The handbook of language, gender, and sexuality . 2d ed. Edited by Susan Ehrlich, Miriam Meyerhoff, and Janet Holmes, 48–67. Malden, MA: Blackwell.

McElhinny examines assumptions guiding language and gender research with an eye to how this scholarship might inform feminist activism. She discusses three problematic assumptions: the collapsing of gender, sex, and sexuality; the understanding of gender as an attribute; and the view that gender is based in individuals rather than institutions.

Queen, Robin. 2014. Language and sexual identity. In The handbook of language, gender, and sexuality. 2d ed. Edited by Susan Ehrlich, Miriam Meyerhoff, and Janet Holmes, 203–219. Malden, MA: Blackwell.

Queen revisits the identity-desire debate that has riddled the study of language and sexuality over the last decade and calls for more research that focuses on the two as intertwined. The chapter includes a useful review of what sociophonetic research has revealed about sexual identity as well as a commentary on “the special case of the lesbian.”

This is so overpriced at 3 pounds. It is little more than 2 pages of a word doc. I had expected a much longer document for the money. Other beware - not worth this amount.

Popular Subculture Topics

This essay about subcultures explores three distinct social groups: the Hipster subculture, the Goth community, and the K-pop fanbase. It discusses how these groups form their identities around unique interests, values, and lifestyles, creating their own customs, language, and rituals. The essay highlights how each subculture impacts mainstream culture through fashion, music, and social practices, and provides a space for individual expression and belonging. It underscores the significance of subcultures in contributing to the diversity and dynamism of society.

How it works

Subcultures are intriguing sociocultural phenomena that develop when individuals who share similar interests, values, or lifestyles band together to form distinct social groups that stand apart from mainstream culture. These groups often establish their own customs, language, and rituals, offering a rich field of study for sociologists and cultural analysts. This essay delves into three notable subcultures: the Hipster subculture, the Goth community, and the K-pop fanbase, highlighting their distinctive features and cultural impact.

Originating in the early 2000s, the Hipster subculture represents a group defined by its resistance to mainstream commercial culture.

Typically urban and middle-class, Hipsters are young adults who strive to differentiate themselves from wider society through their non-conformist and self-aware attitude. Their aesthetic is heavily influenced by vintage elements, favoring indie music, retro styles, and craft foods. Intellectual pursuits and progressive political ideals, such as environmentalism and social equity, are central to this group.

The irony of the Hipster subculture lies in its paradox: while Hipsters aim to defy mainstream norms, their choices often become trendsetting themselves. Their influence is evident in the popularity of craft breweries, boutique coffee roasters, and thrift stores. Additionally, Hipsters have reshaped modern humor and dialogue with their penchant for irony and cultural appropriation, fostering a more cynical and introspective form of cultural commentary.

The Goth community surfaced in the early 1980s in the UK, branching from the punk rock scene. Characterized by their distinctive style, Goths often wear black attire, dark makeup, and favor a look that could be described as both romantically and morbidly elaborate. The subculture varies from Victorian-inspired garments to contemporary punk and industrial motifs.

Goths embrace a philosophy that venerates the macabre, an affinity for mortality, and a strong sense of personal identity. They cherish literature and music that express intense emotions and existential despair, with bands like Bauhaus and The Cure being iconic within the Goth musical canon. Contrary to its somber image, the Goth community is known for its welcoming and supportive environment, providing solace for those marginalized by mainstream culture. Over time, Goth has permeated various cultural sectors, including fashion, cinema, and music, underscoring its lasting influence and appeal.

K-pop, short for Korean pop music, has evolved beyond a musical genre to inspire a worldwide subculture of devoted followers. Originating in South Korea in the early 1990s, K-pop has exploded globally through the internet and social media. K-pop enthusiasts are proactive supporters who engage in promoting their favorite artists by utilizing social media, creating fan art, and participating in concerts and fan events.

This subculture is known for its organizational skills and fervent dedication. Fans coordinate to influence music award outcomes, boost video streaming numbers, and arrange philanthropic activities in honor of their preferred idols. The international K-pop fanbase has not only propagated Korean culture globally but also affected international fashion and beauty standards. This fan community demonstrates the profound impact a subculture can have on major industries and cultural movements.

Subcultures play a crucial role in adding dynamism and variety to society. They provide a platform for individuals to showcase unique viewpoints and preferences, often shaping wider cultural trends. The Hipster, Goth, and K-pop subcultures exemplify the diverse ways in which subcultures can center around specific tastes, philosophies, and artistic expressions. Studying these groups offers insights into the complex interplay between individual identity and collective culture, as well as the ongoing evolution of societal norms and values. Each subculture not only enriches the lives of its members but also exerts a significant influence on the broader cultural scene.

About 1 in 5 U.S. teens who’ve heard of ChatGPT have used it for schoolwork

(Maskot/Getty Images)

Roughly one-in-five teenagers who have heard of ChatGPT say they have used it to help them do their schoolwork, according to a new Pew Research Center survey of U.S. teens ages 13 to 17. With a majority of teens having heard of ChatGPT, that amounts to 13% of all U.S. teens who have used the generative artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot in their schoolwork.

A bar chart showing that, among teens who know of ChatGPT, 19% say they’ve used it for schoolwork.

Teens in higher grade levels are particularly likely to have used the chatbot to help them with schoolwork. About one-quarter of 11th and 12th graders who have heard of ChatGPT say they have done this. This share drops to 17% among 9th and 10th graders and 12% among 7th and 8th graders.

There is no significant difference between teen boys and girls who have used ChatGPT in this way.

The introduction of ChatGPT last year has led to much discussion about its role in schools , especially whether schools should integrate the new technology into the classroom or ban it .

Pew Research Center conducted this analysis to understand American teens’ use and understanding of ChatGPT in the school setting.

The Center conducted an online survey of 1,453 U.S. teens from Sept. 26 to Oct. 23, 2023, via Ipsos. Ipsos recruited the teens via their parents, who were part of its KnowledgePanel . The KnowledgePanel is a probability-based web panel recruited primarily through national, random sampling of residential addresses. The survey was weighted to be representative of U.S. teens ages 13 to 17 who live with their parents by age, gender, race and ethnicity, household income, and other categories.

This research was reviewed and approved by an external institutional review board (IRB), Advarra, an independent committee of experts specializing in helping to protect the rights of research participants.

Here are the  questions used for this analysis , along with responses, and its  methodology .

Teens’ awareness of ChatGPT

Overall, two-thirds of U.S. teens say they have heard of ChatGPT, including 23% who have heard a lot about it. But awareness varies by race and ethnicity, as well as by household income:

A horizontal stacked bar chart showing that most teens have heard of ChatGPT, but awareness varies by race and ethnicity, household income.

  • 72% of White teens say they’ve heard at least a little about ChatGPT, compared with 63% of Hispanic teens and 56% of Black teens.
  • 75% of teens living in households that make $75,000 or more annually have heard of ChatGPT. Much smaller shares in households with incomes between $30,000 and $74,999 (58%) and less than $30,000 (41%) say the same.

Teens who are more aware of ChatGPT are more likely to use it for schoolwork. Roughly a third of teens who have heard a lot about ChatGPT (36%) have used it for schoolwork, far higher than the 10% among those who have heard a little about it.

When do teens think it’s OK for students to use ChatGPT?

For teens, whether it is – or is not – acceptable for students to use ChatGPT depends on what it is being used for.

There is a fair amount of support for using the chatbot to explore a topic. Roughly seven-in-ten teens who have heard of ChatGPT say it’s acceptable to use when they are researching something new, while 13% say it is not acceptable.

A diverging bar chart showing that many teens say it’s acceptable to use ChatGPT for research; few say it’s OK to use it for writing essays.

However, there is much less support for using ChatGPT to do the work itself. Just one-in-five teens who have heard of ChatGPT say it’s acceptable to use it to write essays, while 57% say it is not acceptable. And 39% say it’s acceptable to use ChatGPT to solve math problems, while a similar share of teens (36%) say it’s not acceptable.

Some teens are uncertain about whether it’s acceptable to use ChatGPT for these tasks. Between 18% and 24% say they aren’t sure whether these are acceptable use cases for ChatGPT.

Those who have heard a lot about ChatGPT are more likely than those who have only heard a little about it to say it’s acceptable to use the chatbot to research topics, solve math problems and write essays. For instance, 54% of teens who have heard a lot about ChatGPT say it’s acceptable to use it to solve math problems, compared with 32% among those who have heard a little about it.
