The purpose of this systematic literature review (SLR) was to methodically integrate peer-reviewed findings regarding lateral violence within Indigenous communities, with particular attention to the experiences of Indigenous women. Lateral violence describes aggression within systemically exploited groups. Interpretations from eligible articles were informed by intersectionality theory and post-colonial theory. Eligibility criteria included quantitative and qualitative peer-reviewed articles on lateral violence within Indigenous communities. Only articles that were primary sources, available to download in English, and published between 2000 and 2021 were included. Samples did not need to consist of Indigenous women exclusively, but Indigenous women had to be included. First, advanced searches were conducted in five databases (Academic Search Complete, PsycINFO, Indigenous Peoples: North America, ProQuest: Sociology Collection, and ERIC). Second, a multidisciplinary index (Google Scholar) was searched. Third, 23 peer-reviewed journals specializing in Indigenous topics were systematically searched. Lastly, forward and backward snowballing techniques were implemented. Articles were appraised following PRISMA-P guidelines. Ten articles passed the eligibility criteria. Findings suggest that lateral violence within Indigenous communities is a complex social concern, with participants disclosing both survivorship and contribution to lateral violence. Within Australian and Canadian contexts, lateral violence experiences are prevalent and persistent occurrences. Lateral violence is a controversial and taboo topic and is often silenced or normalized within Indigenous communities. For this reason, further research is warranted to raise awareness of lateral violence to disrupt the cycle of internalized oppression.

土著妇女的横向暴力经历：系统文献回顾

本系统文献综述 (SLR) 的目的是有条不紊地整合同行评议的关于土著社区内横向暴力的调查结果，特别关注土著妇女的经历。横向暴力描述了系统性剥削群体内部的攻击性。符合条件的文章的解释受到交叉理论和后殖民理论的影响。资格标准包括关于土著社区内横向暴力的定量和定性同行评议文章。仅包括主要来源、可下载英文并在 2000 年至 2021 年间发表的文章。样本不需要完全由土著妇女组成，但必须包括土著妇女。第一的，在五个数据库（Academic Search Complete、PsycINFO、Indigenous Peoples：North America、ProQuest：Sociology Collection 和 ERIC）中进行了高级搜索。其次，检索了多学科索引（Google Scholar）。第三，系统检索了 23 种专门研究土著主题的同行评审期刊。最后，实施了向前和向后滚雪球技术。文章按照 PRISMA-P 指南进行评估。十篇文章通过了资格标准。调查结果表明，土著社区内的横向暴力是一个复杂的社会问题，参与者披露了幸存者和对横向暴力的贡献。在澳大利亚和加拿大的背景下，横向暴力经历是普遍且持续的事件。横向暴力是一个有争议的禁忌话题，在土著社区中经常被压制或正常化。出于这个原因，有必要进行进一步的研究，以提高对横向暴力的认识，以破坏内化压迫的循环。
