‘I took the vaccine to protect myself’
Vaccine hesitancy is a persistent global health challenge. This project explored attitudes towards and utilization of COVID-19 vaccination, as well as suggestions to improve utilization within Indigenous communities in Northwest Territories, Canada. Utilizing a cross-sectional design, this project spanned two phases: 10 communities in Phase 1 (April to November 2021), and 11 in Phase 2 (August 2022-January 2023). Self-identifying Indigenous adult…
Barriers and facilitators to the utilization of cancer screening services in two Arctic Indigenous communities in Canada
BACKGROUND: Indigenous communities in Canada have high age-standardized rates of cancer mortality. Remote communities in Canada's northern territories have a high proportion of Indigenous residents and disproportionately low utilization rates of screening services for breast, cervical, and colorectal cancers, which could contribute to delayed cancer diagnosis and less favourable clinical outcomes. Knowledge is limited regarding the under-utilizat…
Challenges faced by health policymakers responding to Covid-19 in remote communities in Northwest Territories, Canada
The health systems’ response to the COVID-19 pandemic controlled the virus’s spread but exposed fragmented systems and operational challenges globally. Understanding these issues is essential for enhancing health system capabilities and improving future pandemic responses. This study explored the perspectives of health policymakers in Northwest Territories (NWT), Canada, on the challenges to responding to COVID-19 and implementing the necessary p…
High Adherence to Covid-19 Public Health Preventive Measures in Indigenous Communities in the Canadian Northwest Territories
Leisure Time Physical Activity Levels in Immigrants by Ethnicity and Time Since Immigration to Canada
Smoking prevalence and attributable disease burden in 195 countries and territories, 1990–2015
BACKGROUND: The scale-up of tobacco control, especially after the adoption of the Framework Convention for Tobacco Control, is a major public health success story. Nonetheless, smoking remains a leading risk for early death and disability worldwide, and therefore continues to require sustained political commitment. The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) offers a robust platform through which global, regional, and na…

Development of a Family Intervention for Native Hawaiian Women with Cancer
Native Hawaiian women have high cancer rates and low survival rates. As with other women, a major source of support for Native Hawaiian women is their families. This pilot study reports on the feasibility of providing and measuring a culturally appropriate intervention designed to help Native Hawaiian women and their families deal with cancer. The feasibility evaluation indicated that a major strength of the intervention was its incorporation of …

Health attitudes and behaviors
Evaluations of Hawaii Creole English and Standard English
The growing number of multicultural dialect and creole speakers entering the public school system underlines the importance of understanding perceptions pertaining to language standards and differences. Previous research has shown a consistent evaluative difference between nonstandard and standard linguistic forms. In this study, 197 university students were randomly assigned to rate an audio tape delivered in Hawaii Creole English or Standard En…
