The purpose of the present study was to explore Muslim Arab American women's intersecting identities, the types of discrimination they experience, and the psychosocial effects of those experiences on identity and well-being.
Thirteen Muslim Arab American women were interviewed utilizing the consensual qualitative research (CQR) approach.
Final domains that emerged from the data included conceptualization of racial, ethnic, and religious identity; experiences and effect of microaggressions; and coping strategies.
The results document discrimination at the intersection of their multiple identities, a perceived shift in stereotypes from weak and oppressed to anti-American and violent, and within-group discrimination in the form of colorism and judgment. Reported psychological effects of discrimination include internalization of stereotypes, burden to represent all Muslims, rejection of the White racial label, and increased activism. The findings highlight resilience and coping through active self-acceptance and advocacy. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).
本研究旨在探讨穆斯林阿拉伯裔美国女性的交叉身份认同、她们所经历的歧视类型,以及这些经历对身份认同和幸福感的心理影响。
采用共识定性研究(CQR)方法对 13 名穆斯林阿拉伯裔美国女性进行了访谈。
从数据中得出的最终领域包括对种族、民族和宗教身份的概念化;微侵犯的经历和影响;以及应对策略。
研究结果记录了她们多种身份交叉处的歧视,刻板印象从弱势和受压迫者转变为反美和暴力,以及群体内的肤色主义和评判歧视。报告的歧视心理影响包括刻板印象的内化、代表所有穆斯林的负担、拒绝白人种族标签,以及增强的积极性。研究结果强调了通过积极的自我接纳和倡导来保持韧性和应对能力。(PsycInfo 数据库记录(c)2023 APA,保留所有权利)。
