Summary of Implications for practice, policy, and research

Implications
• Conduct studies with adequate subgroup sample sizes and analyze/report differences by subgroup.  • Conduct studies in languages other than English to include limited English proficient AANHPI participants.
• Collect these data specifically among underrepresented sub-groups, such as Southeast Asian, NH, or PI groups as well as sexual and gender minority individuals.
• Conduct studies assessing knowledge related to sexual violence in order to inform interventions to increase knowledge.
• Develop and rigorously test culturally and linguistically tailored interventions in order to increase knowledge and dispel stigma around sexual violence to increase help-seeking behaviors.  • Incorporate community-based and family-centered approaches in interventions.  • Innovative approaches (e.g., via technology and storytelling) should continue to be explored and tested.  • Increase cultural and structural competency of clinicians working with AANHPI populations through training.
• Conduct additional studies examining risk factors and health outcomes for AANHPI populations and subgroups.  • Conduct longitudinal studies that establish temporality.
• Develop culturally and linguistically appropriate measures and further validate related measures among AANHPI populations and subgroups.
• Apply an intersectionality framework to inform study design, analysis, and interpretation of data in order to capture how the continued racialized hyper-sexualization of AANHPI women impacts risks and health outcomes related to non-partner sexual violence.  • Clinicians should become aware of how co-occurring marginalization impacts sexual violence among AANHPI women and actively explore how their clients have experienced such unique marginalization.
