摘要

本研究旨在探讨美国南亚青年对性别规范和医疗决策的看法。研究人员与美国西海岸一所大学的 36 名南亚裔学生进行了 10 次焦点小组讨论。对焦点小组数据进行了主题分析。数据中出现了三大主题:(1)性别与影响医疗决策的其他因素的交叉性,(2)性别对健康的影响,以及(3)应对策略。参与者报告了男孩对女孩的优待、男性拥有决策控制权、女性健康状况较差以及应对策略。一些答复表明,一些家庭中的权力差异正在转向男女之间更加平等的平衡。年龄、就业和语言障碍等因素与性别交织在一起,对医疗决策产生了复杂的影响。这项研究对社会工作者为美国南亚青年提供文化响应支持具有重要意义,他们在与南亚青年合作时应注意交叉性。还需要进一步研究探讨性别对美国南亚青年医疗决策过程的影响。

Perspectives of South Asian Youth in the United States about Gender Norms and Healthcare Decision Making
The aim of this study was to explore the voices of South Asian youth in the United States about gender norms and healthcare decision making. Ten focus group discussions were held with 36 students of South Asian origin at a university on the West Coast of the United States. Thematic analysis was performed on the focus group data. Three main themes emerged from the data: (1) intersectionality of gender with other factors that affect healthcare decision making, (2) impact of gender on health, and (3) coping strategies. Participants reported preferential treatment for boys versus girls, vesting decision-making control among males, worse health among females, and coping strategies. A few responses indicated that power differentials in some families were shifting to a more egalitarian balance between males and females. Aspects such as age, employment, and language barriers intersected with gender to create a complex web of influence on healthcare decision making. The study has implications for social workers to offer culturally responsive support to South Asian youth in the United States, paying attention to the intersectionalities when working with them. Further research is needed to explore the influence of gender on healthcare decision-making processes of South Asian youth in the United States.
