The psychopathology among American Indian adolescents appears qualitatively similar to that found in the rest of the United States adolescent population. There are, however, substantial quantitative differences in psychopathology among various tribes and in comparison to non-native American adolescents. In some circumstances, there are qualitative differences also. In a few tribes adolescents appear to have no greater incidence of major psychopathology than do adolescents in the Anglo population. But in many tribes, the incidence is far greater than that found in the Anglo population. When this quantitative difference occurs it is usually in a tribe with a juxtaposition of extreme poverty, fragmentation of both the nuclear and extended family, and serious morale problems stemming mainly from enormous changes in religious traditions and traditional ways of living. Enforced reservation life frequently has contributed heavily to the demoralization of these tribes by denying them, in effect, their traditional means of subsistence, like hunting, and providing no new means of becoming economically self-sufficient, through agriculture or herding, for instance.
