Abstract

At present time, modern cultural researches gain more and more applicative character, as far as the growing interest to the researches of such a phenomenon as culture is caused not so by theoretical demands, as by practical necessity to solve real and objectively existing problems of the modernity. Cultural studies appear as some interactive knowledge at the intersection of different socio-humanitarian disciplines. The given peculiarity of cultural studies turns out to be a sort of advantage, which allows to apply methods and approaches, taken from various disciplines (i.e. sociology, psychology, linguistics and so on), for salvation of research problems. Re-targeting of the cultural studies orientation from theory to practice results in necessity of mastering of new methods and approaches, which allow efficiently solving practical tasks. One of such approaches is the gender approach, which has been widely used in various spheres of the modern socio-humanitarian researches. In the given article, we present the results and interpretations of the results of the association experiment, having been carried out on the theme «the female» and «the male» according to the methodology of A.I. Nazarov and R.V. Sokolov «Thematic Associations Series» among the students of the Siberian Federal University. The experiment has been carried out in order to reveal peculiarities of the gender (social gender), which is being formed by the modern Russian culture.
