我们回顾了17项关于卡特里娜飓风后非洲裔美国人经历的研究，重点是妇女。我们使用主要的计算机数据库进行了文献检索，并交叉检查了识别文章中的参考文献。所有研究都发表在2006年至2010年的同行评审期刊上。非裔美国妇女比其他人更有可能报告说，飓风的经历造成了心理健康障碍和压力，扰乱了社会关系，加强了对家庭的信心和感激。非裔美国妇女强调必须保存文化记忆，她们主张支持和恢复。我们为从业者、政策制定者和研究人员提供建议。
We reviewed 17 studies of experiences of African Americans following Hurricane Katrina, with an emphasis on women. We conducted a literature search using major computerized databases, and we crossed-checked references in articles identified. All of the studies were published in peer-reviewed journals between 2006 and 2010. African American women were more likely than others to report that the hurricane experience produced mental health disorders and stress, disrupted social relationships, and strengthened faith and appreciation of families. African American women emphasized the need to preserve cultural memories, and they advocated for support and recovery. We offer suggestions for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers.
