Self-silencing is a socially maintained phenomenon that inhibits women's self-expression and input in society. The construct affects women, both individually and collectively, and has been linked to physical health problems, psychological issues, and the nature and quality of intimate relationships. The larger body of theoretical work upon which self-silencing theory is built is social constructivism. Self-silencing may be affected by ethnic identity and cultural gender roles. However, there remains an important gap in the current literature regarding how attributes such as ethnicity and cultural gender roles affect self-silencing, specifically in Latina women. To address that gap, the purpose of the present study was to determine whether there is a difference in self-silencing levels between Latina and White women and whether cultural gender roles may affect self-silencing in Latina women. The sample of interest consisted of Latina and White women over the age of 18 and residing in New York (N = 53) who were recruited through advertisement in local newspapers. An independent samples design compared self-silencing levels in White and Latina females, and a correlational design investigated the relationship between traditional Latino gender roles and self-silencing in Latina women. Latina females experienced higher levels of self-silencing than did White females, and cultural gender roles were positively correlated to self-silencing in Latina women. Findings from both investigations were statistically significant. The research generates positive social change by identifying cultural factors that may facilitate self-silencing in Latina women. This knowledge may contribute to the development of culturally appropriate therapeutic strategies for this population, and in turn, may increase the visibility and voice of Latina women.
