  • Scoping review of non-pharmacological or self-management interventions for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders tested with Hispanic and Latina women

    Open Access•Leslie B Lantz, Allison Gregory et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2025

    We identified studies in which CBT, CBSM, mindfulness, and relaxation interventions were tested with a study population of predominantly Hispanic and Latina perinatal women. Our findings suggest that these non-pharmacological or self-management interventions should receive more research attention given their potential effect on the prevention or reduction of symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and/or stress in Hispanic and Latina perinatal wome…

  • Female Gang Members Negotiating Privilege, Power, and Oppression within Family and Gang Life

    Erin Gutierrez-Adams, Desdamona Rios et al.•ARTICLE•Women & Therapy•2020•Cited by: 1•References: 9

    According to National Gang Center, 2012 statistics, 30,700 gangs existed in the United States with an approximate membership of 850,000 people. Although female gang members account for less than 10% of total membership, their numbers and violence among them are increasing as of 2002. Due to their intersectional invisibility, research and interventions for gang members have been based primarily on the experiences of boys and men. Therefore, we exa…

  • Ambivalent White Racial Consciousness: Examining Intersectional Reflection and Complexity in Practitioner Graduate Training

    Nkiru Nnawulezi, Kim A Case et al.•ARTICLE•Women & Therapy•2020•Cited by: 8•References: 10

    Ambivalent white racial consciousness describes a push towards awareness about racial privilege and a simultaneous pull back from this knowledge into a more comfortable stance of denial. Twenty-nine White community members and undergraduate students participated in focus group discussions on race. Results indicated that participants expressed ambivalent racial consciousness when they talked about: what it means to be White, their non-racial ident…

  • Intersectional Cultural Humility: Aligning Critical Inquiry with Critical Praxis in Psychology

    N T Buchanan, Desdamona Rios et al.•ARTICLE•Women & Therapy•2020•Cited by: 10•References: 8

    This special issue is an interdisciplinary collection on intersectionality theory as critical inquiry and praxis. This paper challenges cultural competence models and argues instead for intersectional cultural humility in theory, practice, and teaching. We first provide a brief review of the development of intersectionality theory and future directions for its application. Then, we critique cultural competence models and compare their assumptions…

  • Intersectionality as a radical framework for transforming our disciplines, social issues, and the world

    Open Access•Nicole M Overstreet, Lisa Rosenthal et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Social Issues•2020•Cited by: 22•References: 50

    In this introduction to the special issue on Applications of Intersectionality to Critical Social Issues , we assert that a psychological study of social issues that seeks to move toward social justice, equity, and liberation must embrace intersectionality's radical core. This requires constant critical inquiry and praxis centered on power, including how we shape power and how power shapes us. The both/and logics of intersectionality are particul…

  • Intersectional patterns of prejudice confrontation by White, heterosexual, and cisgender allies

    Open Access•Kim A Case, Desdamona Rios et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Social Issues•2020•Cited by: 7•References: 55

    Scholarship produced by psychologists typically focuses on one area of social identity and oppression per study (e.g., only sexism) with very little intersectional analysis across systemic oppression and privilege. To better understand the intersecting patterns of ally behavior, we examined online confrontation behavior by privileged individuals in response to antigay, antitransgender, and racist comments. Study 1 explored rates and types of conf…

    Kim A Case•ARTICLE•Women & Therapy•2015•Cited by: 16•References: 8

    Among WhiteFootnote1 licensed psychologists, social workers, marriage and family therapists, and counselors, research has documented a severe lack of awareness of unconscious stereotyping, systemic racism, white privilege, and white racial identity. This article introduces a privilege awareness pedagogical model as a framework for White students in clinical training programs learning about white privilege, enhancing multicultural competencies, an…

  • Developing Allies to Transgender and Gender-Nonconforming Youth: Training for Counselors and Educators

    Kim A Case, Colt St Amand•ARTICLE•Journal of LGBT Youth•2014•Cited by: 8•References: 7

    Lack of training regarding transgender youth leaves K–12 educators unprepared to become allies to this disenfranchised community and attend to their needs. This article explores the pedagogical strategies of two professional workshop models (GLSEN Houston training and the Gender Infinity practitioner training), which provide skills and resources for educators and counselors in K–12 settings to become adult allies to gender-nonconforming youth. Di…

  • Reflecting on Heterosexual and Male Privilege: Interventions to Raise Awareness

    Open Access•Kim A Case, Rachel Hensley et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Social Issues•2014•Cited by: 17•References: 37

    Gender‐focused college courses seek to increase understanding of the systematic advantages associated with dominant group membership. These courses attempt to reduce prejudice and raise awareness of male and heterosexual privilege. Inclusion of privilege content within gender‐focused courses has increased, but research to test interventions to increase privilege awareness and reduce prejudice remains sparse. The current studies provide experiment…

  • Gender Representations on Disney Channel, Cartoon Network, and Nickelodeon Broadcasts in the United States

    Beth Hentges, Kim A Case et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Children and Media•2013

    Children's television programming provides young viewers with characters displaying behaviors and individual traits that may promote or counter gender stereotypical expectations. The present study examined behaviors of both female and male television show characters across three networks: Disney Channel, Cartoon Network, and Nickelodeon. Content analysis within and across networks investigated whether network target audience is associated with ge…

  • Intervention Effectiveness in Reducing Prejudice Against Transsexuals

    Kim A Case, Briana Stewart•ARTICLE•Journal of LGBT Youth•2013•Cited by: 8•References: 19

    The transgender community encounters pervasive prejudice, discrimination, and violence, yet social science literature lacks research that focuses on reduction of antitransgender prejudice. This experimental study examined the effectiveness of three interventions aimed at decreasing negative attitudes toward transsexuals, correcting participants’ beliefs in myths about transsexuality, and reducing their predicted discriminatory behaviors. Results …

  • Teaching intersectional LGBT psychology: Reflections from historically Black and Hispanic-serving universities

    Kim A Case, Michele K Lewis•ARTICLE•Psychology and Sexuality•2012•Cited by: 1•References: 12

    Recent curricular developments emphasising coverage of sexuality resulted in the creation of psychology courses devoted to ‘lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender’ (LGBT) content that parallel diversity courses that focus on gender or race. However, an intersectional pedagogical approach may strengthen student understanding of not only the LGBT psychology but also the matrix of oppression as related to a multitude of social inequalities. This art…

  • Transgender Inclusion in University Nondiscrimination Statements: Challenging Gender‐Conforming Privilege through Student Activism

    Open Access•Kim A Case, Heather Kanenberg et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Social Issues•2012•Cited by: 23•References: 3

    This case study focuses on policy change efforts to challenge gender‐conforming privilege and gain protections for transgender individuals in higher education. This participatory action research centered on a faculty–student partnership in activism as the team worked to include the terms “gender identity and expression” in the university nondiscrimination policies to promote justice and equity for transgender students on campus. Using an approach…

    In the discussion group White Women Against Racism (WWAR), participants engaged in dialogue promoting self‐examination of white privilege and anti‐racist social action. Through qualitative analyses of field observations of group meetings and interviews, this study explores their engagement in the deconstruction of white privilege, white identity, and the challenges of anti‐racist action for social change. The women examined whiteness through a le…

    As research on privilege increased in the last two decades, a clear need for a social psychological perspective to examine the topic has emerged. In this special issue of JSI, scholars provide a framework for understanding the psychology of privilege, considering the policy implications of privilege, and imagining the future of privilege studies. The contributors emphasize multidisciplinary approaches, mixed methods, and the benefits of intersect…

  • Raising White Privilege Awareness and Reducing Racial Prejudice: Assessing Diversity Course Effectiveness

    Open Access•Kim A Case•ARTICLE•Teaching of Psychology•2007

    Many diversity courses in psychology originally aimed to reduce student racial bias and raise their awareness of racism. However, quantitative data testing the effectiveness of such courses are lacking. This study assessed a required diversity course's effectiveness in raising awareness of White privilege and racism; increasing support for affirmative action; and reducing prejudice, guilt, and fear of other races. Students ( N = 146) completed id…

    Open Access•Kim A Case•ARTICLE•Psychology of Women Quarterly•2007•Cited by: 31•References: 11

    Research examining the impact of women's studies courses provides evidence of student changes such as greater agreement with feminist and egalitarian attitudes, lower prejudice against women, and increased activism. Using a pre- and posttest design, the current studies assess students’ awareness of male privilege, prejudice against women, support for affirmative action, and identification as feminist following courses with and without gender cont…

  • Distancing Strategies: White Women Preservice Teachers and Antiracist Curriculum

    Open Access•Kim A Case, Annette Hemmings•ARTICLE•Urban Education•2005•Cited by: 14•References: 5

    This study describes White women preservice teachers’ talk in and about an antiracist teacher education course aimed at raising students’ awareness of racial inequities. Rather than be fully engaged participants in classroom discussions, White women distanced themselves through strategies of silence, social disassociation, and separation from responsibility. They used these strategies in response to perceptions that they were being positioned as …

Results indicated that participants expressed ambivalent racial consciousness when they talked about: what it means to be White, their non-racial ident…

  • Intersectional Cultural Humility: Aligning Critical Inquiry with Critical Praxis in Psychology

    N T Buchanan, Desdamona Rios et al.•ARTICLE•Women & Therapy•2020•Cited by: 10•References: 8

    This special issue is an interdisciplinary collection on intersectionality theory as critical inquiry and praxis. This paper challenges cultural competence models and argues instead for intersectional cultural humility in theory, practice, and teaching. We first provide a brief review of the development of intersectionality theory and future directions for its application. Then, we critique cultural competence models and compare their assumptions…

  • Intersectionality as a radical framework for transforming our disciplines, social issues, and the world

    Open Access•Nicole M Overstreet, Lisa Rosenthal et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Social Issues•2020•Cited by: 22•References: 50

    In this introduction to the special issue on Applications of Intersectionality to Critical Social Issues , we assert that a psychological study of social issues that seeks to move toward social justice, equity, and liberation must embrace intersectionality's radical core. This requires constant critical inquiry and praxis centered on power, including how we shape power and how power shapes us. The both/and logics of intersectionality are particul…

  • Intersectional patterns of prejudice confrontation by White, heterosexual, and cisgender allies

    Open Access•Kim A Case, Desdamona Rios et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Social Issues•2020•Cited by: 7•References: 55

    Scholarship produced by psychologists typically focuses on one area of social identity and oppression per study (e.g., only sexism) with very little intersectional analysis across systemic oppression and privilege. To better understand the intersecting patterns of ally behavior, we examined online confrontation behavior by privileged individuals in response to antigay, antitransgender, and racist comments. Study 1 explored rates and types of conf…

  • Scoping review of non-pharmacological or self-management interventions for perinatal mood and anxiety disorders tested with Hispanic and Latina women

    Open Access•Leslie B Lantz, Allison Gregory et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Psychiatry•2025

    We identified studies in which CBT, CBSM, mindfulness, and relaxation interventions were tested with a study population of predominantly Hispanic and Latina perinatal women. Our findings suggest that these non-pharmacological or self-management interventions should receive more research attention given their potential effect on the prevention or reduction of symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and/or stress in Hispanic and Latina perinatal wome…
