Abstract

Microaggressions against persons with disabilities are pervasive in everyday life, causing significant harm to the health, well-being, and social mindset of the victims. However, qualitative research exploring the lived experience of persons with disabilities remains unsynthesized. This qualitative review aims to gather global evidence on experiences of microaggressions among people with disabilities and to explore how they understand and respond to such incidents. We systematically searched the relevant literature across databases, including EBSCO, Web of Science, PubMed, Elsevier ScienceDirect, ProQuest, ProQuest Dissertation & Theses Global, and Google Scholar. After removing duplicates and applying exclusion criteria, we identified and included a total of 23 articles. Using a meta-synthesis approach, we identified four key categories: the inescapable web of microaggressions, persons with disabilities being stalled in the slough of microaggressions, obedience to and even defense of the aggressor, and proactive acts of resistance. These findings carry significant implications for seeking to improve programs to address disability microaggressions.

残障人士的微攻击经验：质性元综合。

针对残疾人的微侵犯在日常生活中普遍存在，对受害者的健康、福祉和社会心态造成重大伤害。然而，探索残疾人生活经验的定性研究仍然不完整。这项定性审查的目的是收集关于残疾人微侵犯经历的全球证据，并探讨他们如何理解和应对此类事件。我们系统地检索了EBSCO、Web of Science、PubMed、Elsevier ScienceDirect、ProQuest、ProQuest Dissertation & Theses Global和谷歌Scholar等数据库的相关文献。在删除重复并应用排除标准后，我们确定并纳入了总共23篇文章。使用综合方法，我们确定了四个关键类别：不可避免的微侵犯网络，残疾人被困在微侵犯的泥潭中，对侵略者的服从甚至防御，以及主动抵抗行为。这些发现对于寻求改善解决残疾微侵犯的方案具有重要意义。
