Abstract

Introduction: Suicide is a Latinx leading cause of death. A deeper understanding of the cultural factors that can inform suicide prevention efforts among specific Latinx subgroups, such as Puerto Ricans, is needed. This study aimed to explore the cultural values and beliefs of Puerto Rican adults pertaining to suicide and its prevention.

Methodology: The Ethnonursing Research Method, a qualitative approach, was used for this study. Semi-structured interviews were conducted via Zoom with 27 Puerto Rican adults in the U.S. Southwest. Data were analyzed using Leininger's four phases of data analysis.

Results: Three major themes were abstracted: (a) family should play a central role in suicide prevention, (b) a concern for what people will say or think can influence help-seeking, and (c) suicide prevention includes the provision of care that fosters confianza (relational trust, safe space).

Discussion: Culture care values, such as confianza and familismo, must inform suicide prevention efforts and stigma campaigns targeting Puerto Rican communities in the U.S. mainland.

了解波多黎各人关于自杀和自杀预防的文化价值观和信仰：一项民族护理研究。

简介：自杀是拉丁美洲的主要死亡原因。需要对文化因素有更深的了解，这些文化因素可以为特定拉丁裔亚群体（如波多黎各人）的自杀预防工作提供信息。本研究旨在探讨波多黎各成年人有关自杀及其预防的文化价值观和信仰。方法：本研究采用民族护理研究方法，采用定性方法。通过Zoom对美国西南部的27名波多黎各成年人进行了半结构化访谈。数据分析采用Leininger的四阶段数据分析。结果：三个主要主题被提炼出来：(a)家庭应该在自杀预防中发挥核心作用，(b)关注人们会说什么或想什么会影响寻求帮助，以及(c)自杀预防包括提供促进合作（关系信任，安全空间）的护理。讨论：文化关怀的价值，如confianza和familismo，必须告知自杀预防工作和针对美国大陆波多黎各社区的污名运动。
