As survivors have complex and varied motivations for disclosing sexual assault, information and communication technologies (ICTs) can offer unique affordances that either facilitate or hinder sexual assault disclosures. In response, this systematic review draws connections between the functions of sexual assault disclosures and how ICT design choices can impact the sexual assault disclosure process. Findings from 23 empirical studies indicate that platform affordances can facilitate sexual assault survivors' motivations of visibility, naming sexual assault experiences, anonymity, and destigmatizing sexual assault. Further, findings categorize ICT‐based sexual assault disclosure within three frames: disclosure as a linguistic act, disclosure as a reciprocal act, and disclosure as a cultural response. In turn, findings from this systematic review reveal a need for a better understanding of how ICTs function as counter‐discursive information spaces and identify important considerations for redesigning ICTs to allow for sexual assault disclosure work to flourish.
