Background. Occupational therapy and occupational science literature include growing attention to issues of justice, marginalization, and rights. In contrast, the concept of oppression has scarcely been employed. Purpose. This paper investigates how adding the concept of oppression may enhance occupational therapy approaches to injustice, prioritizing a focus on structural causes, and facilitating conscientious action. Method. A critical interpretive synthesis explored insights from authors who name oppressions in occupational therapy and occupational science literature. In total, a sample of 28 papers addressing oppression, ableism, ageism, classism, colonialism, heterosexism, racism, and/or sexism was selected for inclusion. Findings. Four themes were identified: oppression and everyday doing; effects of structures and power; responding and resisting; and oppression within occupational therapy. Implications. Incorporating oppression within the plurality of social discourse may help occupational therapists to avoid individualistic explanations, attend to relationships between social structures and constrained occupations, frame intersectional analysis, and engage in praxis.

压迫和职业治疗的概念:批判性解释综合:Leconcept d'oppression et l'ergothérapie:Une综合解释性批判
背景。职业治疗和职业科学文献越来越关注正义、边缘化和权利问题。相比之下,几乎没有使用压迫的概念。目的。本文研究了添加压迫的概念如何增强针对不公正的职业治疗方法,优先关注结构性原因,并促进认真的行动。方法。一个批判性的解释性综合探讨了在休闲疗法和休闲科学文献中命名压迫的作者的见解。总共选择了 28 篇涉及压迫、能力主义、年龄歧视、阶级主义、殖民主义、异性恋、种族主义和/或性别歧视的论文样本。发现。确定了四个主题:压迫和日常行为;结构和权力的影响;回应和抵制;和职业治疗中的压迫。影响。在多元化的社会话语中加入压迫可能有助于休闲治疗师避免个人主义的解释,关注社会结构和受限职业之间的关系,框架交叉分析,并参与实践。
