这项研究探讨了一所以白人为主的大学中黑人女性的性别种族微侵犯经历(即基于种族和性别交叉的微妙的日常言语、行为和环境表达的压迫)。共有 17 名本科生、研究生和专业学生参加了两次半结构化焦点小组讨论之一。通过维度分析,揭示了三个核心的性别种族微侵犯主题,每个主题都有两个子主题:投射的刻板印象(对耶洗别的期望,对愤怒的黑人妇女的期望),沉默和边缘化(争取尊重、隐形的斗争)以及关于风格和美的假设(关于沟通方式的假设、关于美学的假设)。结果表明,黑人女性由于对其性别种族群体存在的刻板印象而遭受微侵犯。研究结果通过制定性别种族微侵犯的分类法来支持和扩展文献,该分类法强调了微妙压迫的交叉形式。讨论了咨询心理学研究和实践的意义。
This study explored the experience of gendered racial microaggressions (i.e., subtle and everyday verbal, behavioral, and environmental expressions of oppression based on the intersection of one's race and gender) among Black women at a predominantly White university. A total of 17 undergraduate, graduate, and professional students participated in one of two semistructured focus group discussions. Using dimensional analysis, three core gendered racial microaggression themes were uncovered, each with two subthemes: Projected Stereotypes (expectation of the Jezebel, expectation of the Angry Black Woman), Silenced and Marginalized (struggle for respect, invisibility), and Assumptions About Style and Beauty (assumptions about communication styles, assumptions about aesthetics). Results indicated that Black women experience microaggressions based on the stereotypes that exist about their gendered racial group. Findings support and extend the literature by developing a taxonomy of gendered racial microaggressions, which highlights intersecting forms of subtle oppression. Implications for research and practice in counseling psychology are discussed.
