“…Phoenix (2019, p. 2312) explained that ‘intersectionality conceptualizes categories as always permeated by other categories, fluid, changing, and imbued with power relations’. Moreover, Rossetto (2017, p. 62) articulated that intersectionality ‘involves the critical examination of power in families and society, and the interactive processes that occur within and across social groups, institutions, and practices’.…”

Contemporary scholars have applied intersectionality as a means of capturing the complex ways in which identity, inequality, and social justice converge to manifest unique sources of strength and vulnerability. Given the increase in the use of this term, the aim of this study was to systematically and comprehensively examine the application of intersectionality in the fields of family science and family therapy from 2010 to 2020. Through the use of content and thematic analysis, we examined trends and variations in how scholars operationalized and applied the principles of intersectionality. Findings suggest that intersectionality remains underutilized and underdefined. Moreover, intersectionality was primarily concentrated in theoretically driven articles and was least prevalent in articles focused on addressing a specific clinical topic or need or research methods. These findings suggest that, although the use of intersectionality is expanding, its applicability in empirical, and especially clinically focused, scholarship remains an area of growth and opportunity.

“…Through such openness, support from families through strong communication can also help strengthen victims of sexual violence. With this power, according to Rossetto and Tollison, the victim will not hesitate in making a complaint in a case of sexual violence that befalls her [20].…”

Religiosity is often seen as preventing potential cases of sexual violence. However, on the other hand, the religious aspect can be a challenge when with regards to cases of sexual violence. This is because religious and cultural aspects are assumed to hamper the victim’s ability to seek justice. This research involved students of Islamic institutions in Indonesia. Based on the results of the questionnaire and interview, it was found that most victims of sexual violence were women in the early and middle years of their studies. Forms of sexual violence are dominated by verbal, physical, visual and signaling harassment. The victim acknowledged dissatisfaction in processing complaints due to distrust of the institution. Socio-cultural dogma and religious aspects also prevent openness in handling cases because victims tend to protect their names and their institutions. Further efforts are needed in the form of education to reduce the risk of sexual violence. In addition, this study produced a number of recommendations regarding the handling cases of sexual violence in Islamic institutions in Indonesia. Keywords: culture religious challenges, Islamic institution, sexual violence

“…58, September, 2019 SZLYK,GULBAS,& ZAYAS / 779 While the ecodevelopmental model of Latina suicide recognizes the role of family (Zayas et al, 2005), the examination of gendered oppression and violence within the family requires an intersectional lens (Arellano & Ayala-Alcantar, 2004). Feminist family science intersectional approaches infer that familial and social cultures mutually influence each other and reinforce gendered roles (Pitre & Kushner, 2015;Rosetto & Tollison, 2017). Silence is a common cultural script in response to imbalances in power (Rosetto & Tollison, 2017), providing insight into how silence and gendered oppression may perpetuate experiences of violence within a family (Rosetto & Tollison, 2017).…”

“…Building upon the Latina youth and family literature, we illustrate the utility of intersectional frameworks in understanding how silence, as a product of gendered oppression (Rosetto & Tollison, 2017), perpetuates violence and potential suicidal behavior. We use the qualitative approach of family case analysis (Knafl, Deatrick, & Gallo, 2008) to integrate narratives from three groups of Latina daughters with varying exposure to suicidality and violence, and their parents.…”

“I Just Kept It to Myself”: The Shaping of Latina Suicidality Through Gendered Oppression, Silence, and Violence

Suicide is a critical issue among Latina youth. In this study, we use family case analysis to explore how gendered oppression, silencing, and violence shape suicidal behaviors among a sample of Latina daughters (n = 10), and their parents. For comparison, we include family narratives from Latina adolescents with no histories of suicide attempts (n = 10). Results suggest how secrets and silence, as indicative of gendered oppression, may catalyze a suicide attempt. The risks are particularly salient when daughter and mother both have experienced violence that conflicts with gendered cultural scripts. Findings highlight the importance of parental engagement and exploration of histories of violence in the treatment of Latina suicide attempters. Future research should incorporate the risk factors of gendered oppression and violence to better understand the development of suicidality among Latina women.
