本研究探讨了种族认同、多种族认同和其他双文化主义指标的强度与城市美国印第安中学生的吸毒规范之间的关系。该文章区分了可能影响药物使用的规范类别。对美国西南部一座大城市的 434 名印第安人七年级学生的自我报告进行的回归分析表明,具有强烈民族自豪感的学生比那些没有强烈民族自豪感的学生更强烈地遵守某些禁毒规范。尽管在校成绩较好的美国印第安人学生始终持有较强的禁毒规范,但性别、社会经济地位或年龄方面差异不大。这些结果对社会工作实践具有重要意义,可以更好地理解和加强美洲印第安人文化在毒品预防工作中的保护作用。
This study examines how strength of ethnic identity, multiethnic identity, and other indicators of biculturalism relate to the drug use norms of urban American Indian middle school students. The article distinguishes categories of norms that may affect drug use. Regression analysis of self-reports by 434 American Indian seventh graders attending middle schools in a large southwestern U.S. city indicated that students who had a more intense sense of ethnic pride adhered more strongly to certain antidrug norms than those who did not. Whereas American Indian students with better grades in school held consistently stronger antidrug norms, there were few differences by gender, socioeconomic status, or age. These results have implications in social work practice for better understanding and strengthening the protective aspects of American Indian culture in drug prevention efforts.
