Psychology’s Feminist Voices (PFV) is an online, multimedia digital archive containing the stories of women of psychology’s past and contemporary feminist psychologists who have shaped and continue to transform the discipline of psychology. It houses a wide range of materials, including original biographical profiles, oral history interview transcripts, video content, timelines, bibliographies, teaching resources, and an original 40-minute documentary on the emergence and current status of feminist psychology in the United States. The project is continually expanding and currently has a database containing the profiles of over 250 psychologists from around the world.
PFV is also an online teaching resource, with sample syllabi for teaching history of psychology from a feminist perspective, teaching guides for incorporating PFV material into history and psychology of gender courses, assignments, handouts, and teaching videos.
PFV is a free resource and all interview transcripts are downloadable as .pdf files; all video content is available at the site and at the psychsfeministvoices YouTube channel; all interview transcripts are copyrighted to Feminist Voices except where indicated.
The Psychology’s Feminist Voices project was founded by Alexandra Rutherford in 2004. It began as a collection of oral histories with contemporary feminist psychologists, many of whom established the field of feminist psychology in the United States and Canada in the early 1970s. It quickly expanded, however, to encompass a larger goal: the documentation of women throughout psychology’s history, as well as a large and diverse sample of feminist psychologists in order to create a comprehensive picture of the impact of gender, women’s participation, and feminism, on the development of psychology as a science and profession. The online resource, www.feministvoices.com, was launched in 2010 and now has a corresponding Facebook site, YouTube channel, and Twitter feed.
