有系统的同化努力使许多土著儿童离开了他们的部落社区，并被安置在非印第安人经营的寄宿学校。探讨以社区为基础的447名城市双精神美国印第安人/阿拉斯加土著成年人的物质使用和心理健康问题，这些成年人小时候上过寄宿学校和/或由寄宿学校的人抚养长大。在心理健康和药物使用方面，将82名儿童曾就读于印度寄宿学校的答复者与没有寄宿学校历史的答复者进行比较。前寄宿学校的学生报告说，目前使用非法药物和患有酒精使用障碍的比例更高，并且与非寄宿学校的学生相比，他们一生中更有可能尝试自杀和经历自杀念头。大约39%的样本是由寄宿学校的人抚养长大的。与其他人相比，寄宿学校的学生更有可能患有一般焦虑症，经历创伤后应激障碍症状，并且在他们的一生中有自杀念头。
Systematic efforts of assimilation removed many Native children from their tribal communities and placed in non-Indian-run residential schools. To explore substance use and mental health concerns among a community-based sample of 447 urban two-spirit American Indian/Alaska Native adults who had attended boarding school as children and/or who were raised by someone who attended boarding school. Eighty-two respondents who had attended Indian boarding school as children were compared to respondents with no history of boarding school with respect to mental health and substance use. Former boarding school attendees reported higher rates of current illicit drug use and living with alcohol use disorder, and were significantly more likely to have attempted suicide and experienced suicidal thoughts in their lifetime compared to non-attendees. About 39% of the sample had been raised by someone who attended boarding school. People raised by boarding school attendees were significantly more likely to have a general anxiety disorder, experience posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms, and have suicidal thoughts in their lifetime compared to others.
