There is a paucity of research focusing on mental health in AI/AN adolescents or the relationship between cultural connection and health. This project assesses the relationship between cultural identity and markers of mental health and well-being for AI/AN adolescents. Adolescents 12 to 18 years old from the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina participated in this mixed-methods study. Phase 1, discussed in this manuscript, involved surveys using validated instruments to assess cultural connection and markers of mental health and well-being. Characteristics of the 122 AI/AN youth who completed the survey included: mean age 14.9 years (SD = 2.0); 61% (n = 75) assigned female at birth; 56% (n = 70) identified as female; and 4.1% (n = 5) identified as non-binary. Mean tribal affiliation (TA) and ethnic identity (EI) scores suggest strong cultural connection (TA: M = 3.1/5, SD = 0.6; EI: M = 3.4/5, SD = 0.9). Sleep quality (M = 2.63/5) and positive stress management (M = 2.06/5) were low. Bivariate and logistic regression demonstrated moderate positive correlations between EI and friendship, EI and emotional support, TA and friendship, and TA and emotional support. AI/AN adolescents in this sample have a moderate-strong connection with Native culture, marked by ethnic identity and tribal affiliation, and positive markers of mental health and well-being. Data from this study may be used for policy formulation to promote increased funding and programming addressing mental health for AI/AN youth.","PeriodicalId":46147,"journal":{"name":"American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research","volume":"31 1","pages":"31-49"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141075042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Social support is a means of enhancing social and personal resources that can address underlying stressors that contribute to T2D inequities and represents a potential channel of intervention to improve management of T2D in these communities. This community-based participatory research included AI adults from the Bois Forte and Lac Courte Oreilles Bands of Ojibwe and consisted of focus groups that were conducted with people with T2D, social support persons, and service providers. Overall findings underscore the importance of social support in T2D management, especially in providing emotional support, fulfilling an appraisal function, and enabling positive health behaviors. It is also important for policies and practices to consider the social and cultural contexts, particularly the socio-historical context of life within AI communities that has inevitably shaped certain mindsets that may present barriers to care-seeking and optimal T2D management. These findings can inform interventions related to T2D management, especially in incorporating social support and complementing community strengths in achieving a broader goal of reducing diabetes inequities in AI communities.","PeriodicalId":46147,"journal":{"name":"American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research","volume":"145 1","pages":"59-91"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82621569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Respecting the Circle of Life (RCL), a sexual reproductive health and teen pregnancy prevention program for Native youth and their trusted adult, was adapted and delivered in a virtual format with Native youth in a rural, reservation-based Native community. This manuscript describes the adaptation process, feasibility, and acceptability of virtual program implementation. The manuscript describes the process of rapidly shifting the RCL program into a virtual format. In addition, a mixed-methods process evaluation of implementation forms, program feedback forms, in-depth interviews with participants, and staff debriefing sessions was completed. Results show virtual implementation of RCL is both feasible and acceptable for Native youth and their trusted adults. A key benefit of virtual implementation is the flexibility in scheduling and ability to have smaller groups of youth, which offers greater privacy for youth participants compared to in-person implementation with larger groups. However, internet connectivity did present a challenge for virtual implementation. Ultimately, sexual and reproductive health programs seeking to reach Native youth and families should consider virtual implementation methods, both during and outside of pandemic situations.","PeriodicalId":46147,"journal":{"name":"American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research","volume":" ","pages":"63-84"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"40541198","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study uses concept mapping-a participatory, mixed-methods approach to understanding complex phenomena-to examine the perceived impacts of multilevel factors influencing Elders' ability to access and use health care and how these perceptions vary according to gender and age, with the aim of identifying tailored strategies to address inequities. Using data from a purposive sample of American Indian Elders (n = 65) in two states, we compared ratings of thematic clusters and individual factors perceived to impact Elder health care across four participant subgroups: women aged 55-64, women aged 65+, men aged 55-64, and men aged 65+. Provider Issues and Relationships and Tribal/National Policy were themes perceived to have a particularly high impact on Elder health. Key variations between subgroups regarding individual health care access factors reflected unique interpersonal and accessibility challenges among older women, problems stemming from lack of familiarity with health care among younger Elders and men, and challenges navigating complex bureaucracies and tribal decision-making processes among older Elders. Findings underscore the need to address multilevel gender- and age-specific factors contributing to health disparities for Elders.","PeriodicalId":46147,"journal":{"name":"American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research","volume":"28 2","pages":"52-76"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8722384/pdf/nihms-1762647.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39469171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We sought to understand American Indian youths' own experiences and perceptions of the environments to which they return after completing residential treatment for substance use disorder. We recruited three cohorts of American Indian residents of a substance use disorder treatment facility (N = 40). These residents completed a survey that measured risk and protective factors, as well as actual risk behaviors, including drug use, gambling, and violence. Participants were at risk not only for substance use disorders, but for other negative outcomes, and had elevated scores on several community, family, and school risk factors, including perceived availability of drugs, community disorganization, family history of antisocial behavior, favorable parental attitudes toward drug use, academic failure, and low school commitment. At the same time, they were exposed to community-level and family protective factors, and they engaged in many tribal cultural activities. When compared to a national sample of American Indian students of similar age, youth in our sample scored similarly on protective factors, including indicators of community, family, and school opportunities and rewards for prosocial involvement, as well as family attachment, suggesting potential resources and strengths for supporting recovery.","PeriodicalId":46147,"journal":{"name":"American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research","volume":"28 1","pages":"39-70"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25584234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gang membership has been found to pose a public health risk, strain community resources, and risk a number of individual negative life outcomes. Perceived increases in reservation gang activity have been observed by law-enforcement and community stakeholders, but comparatively little empirical research has focused specifically on these communities. Utilizing data from an existing public dataset, analysis of variance and regression analysis were utilized to examine cross sectional trends in gang involvement among 14,457 American Indian adolescents in reservation communities between 1993-2013. Results of this study failed to establish a consistent pattern of either growth or decline in gang membership across time when examining all reservations communities, with data suggesting that consistent trends may exist only within specific communities. Gang members were found to endorse significantly more alcohol and marijuana use, anger, depressed mood, and victimization as a whole. Only alcohol and marijuana use, violent behavior, and depressed mood demonstrated a significant interaction with time and gang membership. Finally, self-reported substance use, criminal behavior/delinquency, and violence perpetration significantly increased as gang affiliation increased.","PeriodicalId":46147,"journal":{"name":"American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research","volume":"28 1","pages":"17-38"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"25584233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines resilience and stress in a group of Hopi female caregivers. Data came from the Hopi Adult Caregiver Survey (2017), which conducted interviews with 44 Hopi women who were providing care without remuneration to an adult family member. Measures included the abbreviated Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10), the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), and questions about caregiver characteristics, care recipient characteristics, social support/ community support, and cultural factors. Stress and resilience were looked at above the median (higher stress or higher resilience) and below the median (lower stress or lower resilience). Caregivers who reported relatively lower resilience were more likely to report that they lived separately from their care recipients and that all Hopis are expected to be caregivers. Caregivers who reported relatively higher stress reported a higher total number of caregiver difficulties, a poorer self-perception of their own health, use of a traditional healer in the past 5 years, and that females are expected to be caregivers. A regression analysis adjusting for age, education, and employment status indicated that higher resilience among the caregivers was significantly associated with lower stress. In light of these findings, programs working with AI caregivers may wish to explore whether supporting the resilience of these caregivers is a means towards limiting their stress.","PeriodicalId":46147,"journal":{"name":"American Indian and Alaska Native Mental Health Research","volume":"27 2","pages":"76-89"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"38656268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
