Abstract

Intersectional invisibility is the experience of not being remembered, attended to, differentiated, or given credit for contributions, and is most likely to be experienced by people with multiple stigmatized identities. In the present study, we used a smartphone‐based longitudinal daily diary design to examine the frequency and downstream consequences of experienced invisibility as they unfold in daily life. Over the course of 10 days, 301 participants reported their daily experiences of invisibility, sleep quality and positive affect, and pre‐ and post‐diary measures of well‐being and academic outcomes. As predicted, number of stigmatized identities positively predicted daily experiences of invisibility. For each additional stigmatized identity, the odds of reporting any instance of invisibility on any given day increased by 18%. Daily experienced invisibility was associated with poor outcomes, especially for those with multiple stigmatized identities, including reductions in daily positive affect and sleep quality, and pre‐ to post‐diary decreases in well‐being and academic outcomes. There was also evidence of cumulative effects on a short timescale: experienced invisibility from the previous 3 days predicted lower positive affect and worse sleep on the present day. This research suggests invisibility is a chronic experience with negative consequences, experienced by people with multiple stigmatized identities.

听不见或记不住：对经历过的交叉隐形的日常评估

交叉隐形是一种不被记住、不被关注、不被区别对待或不因贡献而得到认可的经历，这种经历最有可能发生在具有多重污名化身份的人身上。在本研究中，我们使用基于智能手机的纵向每日日记设计来检查在日常生活中出现的隐形经历的频率和下游后果。在10天的研究过程中，301名参与者报告了他们每天的隐形体验、睡眠质量和积极影响，以及日记前后的幸福感和学业成绩。正如预测的那样，被污名化的身份的数量积极地预测了日常的隐形经历。每增加一个被污名化的身份，在任何一天报告任何不可见实例的几率都会增加18%。日常经历的隐形与不良结果有关，特别是对于那些多重身份被污名化的人，包括日常积极影响和睡眠质量的降低，以及日记前后幸福感和学业成绩的下降。也有证据表明，在短时间内会产生累积效应：前3天的隐形经历预示着当天的积极情绪会降低，睡眠会更差。这项研究表明，隐形是一种长期的负面影响，具有多重耻辱身份的人都会经历这种经历。

期刊介绍： The British Journal of Social Psychology publishes work from scholars based in all parts of the world, and manuscripts that present data on a wide range of populations inside and outside the UK. It publishes original papers in all areas of social psychology including: • social cognition • attitudes • group processes • social influence • intergroup relations • self and identity • nonverbal communication • social psychological aspects of personality, affect and emotion • language and discourse Submissions addressing these topics from a variety of approaches and methods, both quantitative and qualitative are welcomed. We publish papers of the following kinds: • empirical papers that address theoretical issues; • theoretical papers, including analyses of existing social psychological theories and presentations of theoretical innovations, extensions, or integrations; • review papers that provide an evaluation of work within a given area of social psychology and that present proposals for further research in that area; • methodological papers concerning issues that are particularly relevant to a wide range of social psychologists; • an invited agenda article as the first article in the first part of every volume. The editorial team aims to handle papers as efficiently as possible. In 2016, papers were triaged within less than a week, and the average turnaround time from receipt of the manuscript to first decision sent back to the authors was 47 days.
