The increasing popularity of the concept of intersectionality in the social sciences, including in psychology, represents an opportunity to reflect on the state of stewardship of this concept, its roots, and its promise. In this context, the authors aim to promote responsible stewardship of intersectionality and to tip the momentum of intersectionality's flourishing toward fuller use and engagement of its roots and promise for understanding and challenging dynamics of power, privilege, and oppression. To this end, this article provides a set of guidelines for reflection and action. The authors organize these guidelines along 3 major formulations of intersectionality: intersectionality as a field of study, as analytic strategy or disposition, and as critical praxis for social justice. Ultimately, the authors call for expanding the use of intersectionality toward fuller engagement with its roots in Black feminist thought, its current interdisciplinary richness and potential, and its central aims to challenge and transform structures and systems of power, privilege, and oppression.

交叉性概念在社会科学中日益普及，包括心理学，这为反思这一概念的管理状况、根源及其前景提供了机会。在这种情况下，作者旨在促进交叉性的负责任管理，并推动交叉性的蓬勃发展，以充分利用其根源和潜力，理解和挑战权力、特权和压迫的动态。为此，本文提供了一套反思和行动的指导方针。作者根据交叉性的三个主要表述形式组织这些指导方针：交叉性作为一个研究领域、作为分析策略或倾向，以及作为社会正义的批判性实践。最终，作者呼吁扩大交叉性的使用，使其更充分地与黑女性主义思想的根源、当前跨学科的丰富性和潜力以及其核心目标——挑战和改变权力、特权和压迫的结构和制度——相联系。
