Abstract

As survivors have complex and varied motivations for disclosing sexual assault, information and communication technologies (ICTs) can offer unique affordances that either facilitate or hinder sexual assault disclosures. In response, this systematic review draws connections between the functions of sexual assault disclosures and how ICT design choices can impact the sexual assault disclosure process. Findings from 23 empirical studies indicate that platform affordances can facilitate sexual assault survivors' motivations of visibility, naming sexual assault experiences, anonymity, and destigmatizing sexual assault. Further, findings categorize ICT‐based sexual assault disclosure within three frames: disclosure as a linguistic act, disclosure as a reciprocal act, and disclosure as a cultural response. In turn, findings from this systematic review reveal a need for a better understanding of how ICTs function as counter‐discursive information spaces and identify important considerations for redesigning ICTs to allow for sexual assault disclosure work to flourish.

信息和通信技术在年轻人披露和报告性侵犯中的作用：系统回顾

由于幸存者披露性侵犯的动机复杂多样，信息和通信技术（ICTs）可以提供独特的能力，促进或阻碍性侵犯的披露。为此，本系统性综述将性侵犯披露的功能与信息和通信技术的设计选择如何影响性侵犯披露过程联系起来。23 项实证研究的结果表明，平台的可负担性可以促进性侵幸存者的能见度、说出性侵经历、匿名性和消除性侵污名的动机。此外，研究结果还将基于信息通信技术的性侵犯披露归纳为三个框架：作为语言行为的披露、作为互惠行为的披露以及作为文化反应的披露。反过来，本系统综述的研究结果表明，有必要更好地了解信息与传播技术如何发挥反话语信息空间的作用，并确定重新设计信息与传播技术的重要考虑因素，使性侵害披露工作得以蓬勃发展。

期刊介绍： The Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology (JASIST) is a leading international forum for peer-reviewed research in information science. For more than half a century, JASIST has provided intellectual leadership by publishing original research that focuses on the production, discovery, recording, storage, representation, retrieval, presentation, manipulation, dissemination, use, and evaluation of information and on the tools and techniques associated with these processes. The Journal welcomes rigorous work of an empirical, experimental, ethnographic, conceptual, historical, socio-technical, policy-analytic, or critical-theoretical nature. JASIST also commissions in-depth review articles (“Advances in Information Science”) and reviews of print and other media.
