这项研究调查了居住在中西部上部保留地或保留地附近的美国印第安人青少年的弹性。数据来自对212名五年级到八年级的青少年(115名男孩和97名女孩)的基线调查。根据复原力的定义,进行了潜在阶层分析,以确定表现出亲社会结果(60.5%)而不是问题行为结果的青少年。还开发了一种衡量家庭逆境的方法,表明只有38.4%的年轻人生活在低逆境家庭。在面对逆境的积极结果的背景下定义韧性,使用Logistic回归来检验居住在中等到高度逆境家庭的青年中亲社会结果的预测因素。分析确定了关键风险和保护因素。一个主要的风险因素似乎是感觉到的歧视。保护性因素来自多个背景:家庭、社区和文化。有一个热情和支持的母亲,感受到社区的支持,表现出更高水平的文化熏陶,每一个都与亲社会结果的可能性增加相关。(C)2006年威利期刊公司。
This study examines resilience among a sample of American Indian adolescents living on or near reservations in the upper Midwest. Data are from a baseline survey of 212 youth (115 boys and 97 girls) who were enrolled in the fifth through eighth grades. Based upon the definition of resilience, latent class analyses were conducted to identify youth who displayed pro-social outcomes (60.5%) as opposed to problem behavior outcomes. A measure of family adversity was also developed that indicated only 38.4% of the youth lived in low-adversity households. Defining resilience in the context of positive outcomes in the face of adversity, logistic regression was used to examine the predictors of pro-social outcomes among youth who lived in moderate- to high-adversity households. The analyses identified key risk and protective factors. A primary risk factor appeared to be perceived discrimination. Protective factors were from multiple contexts: family, community, and culture. Having a warm and supportive mother, perceiving community support, and exhibiting higher levels of enculturation were each associated with increased likelihood of pro-social outcomes.
