  Incest and Women of Color: A Study of Experiences and Disclosure
 
 
Title: Incest and Women of Color: A Study of Experiences and Disclosure
Author: Tyagi, Smita Vir
Appeared in: Journal of child sexual abuse
Paging: Volume 10 (2002) nr. 2 pages 17-39
Year: 2002-04-17
Contents: Clinical literature on incest trauma assumes a homogeneity of experience of all incest survivors including women of color. Experiences relating to community, culture, and family need to be acknowledged as salient aspects of the experiences of women of color who are also incest survivors. Twelve participants were interviewed regarding their experiences related to disclosure and coping. Participants described value systems, community mindedness, social attitudes, negative consequences amongst other social and cultural issues as factors affecting incest disclosure. Participants described cognitive reframing, determination and separation from the perpetrator as ways of coping with incest.
