Yarning sessions to facilitate cultural responsiveness and decolonising the curriculum in a university psychology setting
Psychology higher education providers play a critical role in growing a culturally safe psychology workforce by engaging in culturally responsive practices, embedding Indigenous perspectives, and decolonising curricula. We describe yarning sessions that aimed to facilitate collective learning, reflexivity, and decolonising praxis. They were led through relationship and governance from the Australian Indigenous Psychology Education Project (AIPEP)…
Australian aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander social and emotional well-being
Indigenous knowledges have sustained flourishing Indigenous communities for millennia. Colonization and its ongoing coloniality continue to cause a disruption to Indigenous peoples' flourishing, including health and well-being. Indigenous leaders, including psychologists, across the globe, participate in leadership roles to shift the colonial powers that exist within psychology and in health more broadly. That shift is essential, as it privileges…
Lessons Learned during a Rapidly Evolving Covid-19 Pandemic: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander-Led Mental Health and Wellbeing Responses Are Key
As the world journeys towards the endemic phase that follows a pandemic, public health authorities are reviewing the efficacy of COVID-19 pandemic responses. The responses by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in Australia have been heralded across the globe as an exemplary demonstration of how self-determination can achieve optimal health outcomes for Indigenous peoples. Despite this success, the impacts of pandemic stressors and …
Understanding Aboriginal Models of Selfhood: The National Empowerment Project’s Cultural, Social, and Emotional Wellbeing Program in Western Australia
Culturally safe and responsive interventions that acknowledge Aboriginal models of selfhood are needed. Such interventions empower Aboriginal peoples and communities by increasing self-determination over individual and community social and emotional wellbeing (SEWB). In response to this need, the National Empowerment Project developed the Cultural, Social, and Emotional Wellbeing Program (CSEWB). The CSEWB aims to strengthen SEWB and cultural ide…
Exploring Mental Health Presentations in Remote Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services in the Kimberley Region of Western Australia Using an Audit and File Reviews
The study aims to explore the role of mental health care in remote Aboriginal health services in the Kimberley region of Western Australia and provide a more nuanced understanding of the patients presenting for care, their needs, and the clinical response. Little is currently known about primary health care presentations for mental health, suicide, and self-harm for remote dwelling Aboriginal residents of the Kimberley region, despite high rates …
Roadmap to recovery: Reporting on a research taskforce supporting Indigenous responses to Covid‐19 in Australia
In April 2020 a Group of Eight Taskforce was convened, consisting of over 100 researchers, to provide independent, research‐based recommendations to the Commonwealth Government on a “Roadmap to Recovery” from COVID‐19. The report covered issues ranging from pandemic control and relaxation of social distancing measures, to well‐being and special considerations for vulnerable populations. Our work focused on the critical needs of Aboriginal and Tor…
Mental health and well‐being of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Australia during Covid‐19
In May 2020, an independent working party was convened to determine the mental health and well‐being needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Australia, in response to COVID‐19. Thirty Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders and allies worked together in a two‐month virtual collaboration process. Here, we provide the working party's five key recommendations and highlight the evidence supporting these proposals. Aboriginal a…
Fearing Failure: Grandiose Narcissism, Vulnerable Narcissism, and Emotional Reactivity in Children
The distinction between grandiose and vulnerable narcissism is new to the child literature, but initial findings suggest that it may have important implications for understanding adjustment. This study examined how expressions of narcissism in children influence their reactions to a mild egothreats experience. Children (N = 124; aged 8–12 years) completed self-ratings before and after doing a brief but challenging task. Negative emotions, self-co…
