Abstract
The authors examine epistemic injustices (e.g., testimonial injustice, gaslighting, testimonial smothering, institutional betrayal) and their associated epistemic harms in relation to survivors of sexual misconduct in sport. Epistemic injustices are forms of unfair treatment that are connected to issues of knowledge, understanding, and participation in communicative practices and often lead to survivors experiencing additional harms, which can be mitigated if survivors sharing their testimony are responded to appropriately. The authors introduce key concepts, review related literature, and provide sport-related examples. The authors provide recommendations for those involved in sport organizations to prevent and mitigate sexual misconduct.
