尽管美国和拉丁美洲国家之间的跨国移民越来越多,但在医疗保健研究中,拉美裔/美洲人中与文化相关的灵性概念仍然缺乏。基于拉丁裔女权主义神学,这篇文章教育了影响灵性的文化价值观,并描述了一项研究的结果,该研究使用了一份新的问卷来探索波多黎各和美国大陆的拉丁裔人的灵性。结果支持文化价值观的突出,如个人主义和家庭主义,作为精神视角的背景,可能独立于天主教会结构发挥作用。
Despite growing transnational migration between the United States and Latin American countries, culturally relevant conceptualizations of spirituality among Latinas/os remain lacking in healthcare research. Grounded in Latina feminist theology, this article educates cultural values that influence spirituality and describes findings from a study using a new questionnaire to explore spirituality among Latinas in Puerto Rico and the US mainland. Results support the saliency of cultural values such as personalismo and familismo as the context for spiritual perspectives, which may function independendly of the Catholic Church structure.
