Daarom vermeld ik hier graag enkele personen die me bijstonden in de realisatie van dit werkstuk. Allereerst bedank ik mijn promotor, professor Annelore Deprez, voor het promotorschap en voor de raad die ze me gaf bij het volmaken van deze masterproef. Tevens een woord van dank aan Dr. Cédric Courtois voor de tips die ik kreeg bij het analytisch SPSS-gedeelte. Verder wens ik mijn tweede codeur Jolien De Pauw te bedanken om de betrouwbaarheid van het onderzoek te helpen meten. Mijn grootste dank gaat echter uit naar mijn ouders die mij de kans gaven deze opleiding te volgen en die mij onvoorwaardelijk steunden gedurende de volledige termijn. 3 ABSTRACT Vele studies wijzen uit dat mannen en vrouwen gestereotypeerd worden in de media. Ook in de sportmedia blijkt genderstereotypering een steeds terugkerend gegeven (Kinkema & Harris, 1998). Sportmannen en sportvrouwen worden niet op dezelfde manier gerepresenteerd aan het publiek. Mannen worden vaak traditioneel voorgesteld als sterke sporthelden (Vande Berg, 1998). Vooral de wijze van representatie van sportvrouwen is echter onderwerp van debat (Koivula, 1999).
