圣山青年项目是为了调查美洲印第安人青年中与酒精和毒品使用有关的风险和保护因素。研究结果表明,应激性生活事件与抑郁情绪、物质使用和危险行为呈正相关;文化认同没有直接影响,但次级模型显示,社会支持和保护性家庭和同伴影响与文化认同有关。这些发现表明,应激源与其负面后遗症之间的关系是复杂的。强调针对美国印第安人年轻人的文化保护程序可能会导致有效的酒精和药物使用预防计划。
The Sacred Mountain Youth Project was conducted to investigate risk and protective factors related to alcohol and drug use among American Indian youth. Findings indicated that stressful life events were positively associated with depressed mood, substance use, and risky behavior; cultural identity had no direct effects, but a secondary model showed that social support and protective family and peer influences were related to cultural identity. These findings suggest that the relationships between stressors and their negative sequelae are complex. Emphasis on protective processes that are culturally specific to American Indian youth may lead to effective alcohol and drug use prevention programs.
