The discipline of ecology and evolutionary biology (EEB) has long grappled with issues of inclusivity and representation, particularly for individuals with systematically excluded and marginalized backgrounds or identities. For example, significant representation disparities still persist that disproportionately affect women and gender minorities; Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC); individuals with disabilities; and people who are LGBTQIA+.

Article Synopsis
  • Trauma-informed care (TIC) has become increasingly important in social work despite limited empirical evidence supporting its effectiveness, prompting a review of its theoretical foundations and practical applications.
  • The review analyzed 131 relevant peer-reviewed articles from 2012 to 2022, highlighting a broad, often individual-focused understanding of trauma, while largely overlooking institutional or structural aspects.
  • The findings reveal a lack of clarity in TIC's practical application and raise concerns about its reliance on perceived trauma prevalence rather than strong research, suggesting a need for critical reassessment for better practice and research directions.

While emerging research is highlighting the significant effects of culture on marital and family relationships, studies investigating relationship intimacy and abuse in non-Western cultures are non-existent. This investigation assessed relationship intimacy in Pakistani women experiencing trauma symptoms (PTSD) from domestic abuse (DA) who received a culturally informed trauma intervention in a context that differs greatly in values and assumptions about marital relationships relative to Western traditions. Forty women meeting inclusion criteria were assessed on domestic violence type and characteristics (both victim and perpetrator characteristics), PTSD symptomology, and three aspects of relationship intimacy: engagement, communication, and shared friendships.
