目的:加深我们对社区暴力对夏威夷农村多民族学校社区意味着什么的理解,并了解人们对如何处理和预防儿童暴力相关行为的看法。设计和样本:采用探索性设计从 150 名主要利益相关者参与者的有目的样本中收集定性数据,其中包括 84 名 5-10 岁的学童和 66 名成人。测量:通过夏威夷岛屿风格(文化适应技术)的“谈话故事”和介绍隐喻的焦点小组方法,用于获取有关青少年暴力的经历、含义和看法的背景数据。使用定性叙述分析来分析数据。结果:发现了五个更高层次的主题,包括需要:建立对暴力的共同理解;开展基于学校的识别、管理和预防工作;发展综合学校卫生服务;制定国家级学校卫生政策;开展外展活动,使预防暴力成为社区事务。结论:研究结果将为制定由教师领导、与家长、学生和社区文化领袖合作的基于学校的文化适应暴力预防计划提供信息。
Purpose: To enhance our understanding of what community violence means to a multiethnic school community in rural Hawaii and obtain people's perspectives of how to deal with and prevent violence-related behaviors among children. Design and sample: An exploratory design was used to collect qualitative data from a purposive sample of 150 key stakeholder participants, including 84 school children aged 5-10 years and 66 adults. Measurement: Focus group methodology via Hawaiian island-style (culturally adapted techniques) of "talk-story" and a metaphor of introduction were used to elicit contextual data on the experiences, meanings, and perceptions of youth violence. Qualitative narrative analyses were used to analyze the data. Results: Five higher order themes were found, including the need to: build a common understanding of what violence looks like; develop school-based identification, management, and prevention efforts; develop comprehensive school health services; develop state-level school health policies; and conduct outreach to make violence prevention a community affair. Conclusion: The findings will inform the development of a school-based culturally adapted violence-prevention program led by teachers, in partnership with parents, students, and community-cultural leaders.
