Conducting a Feasibility Study in Women’s Health Screening Among Women in a Pacific Northwest American Indian Tribe
Breast and cervical cancers continue to contribute to high cancer mortality rates in American Indian/Alaska Native women; culturally appropriate interventions are needed to influence screening behaviors and to reduce delays in obtaining care. In a pilot feasibility study designed to influence Pacific Northwest American Indian/Alaska Native women’s health screening knowledge and behaviors (breast and cervical), we employed a community-based partic…
Getting Into Trouble
Suicide rates among Indian youth in the United States are two to three times the national average. Although researchers have identified related risk and protective factors, they have limited understanding of the perspectives of youth at risk. In this descriptive, ethnographic study in a Pacific Northwest tribe, the goal was to gain an understanding of the life experiences of the youth. Focus groups and observations were conducted with 30 Indian y…
Retention of Native American Nurses Working in Their Communities

Methods: In-depth interviews with nine Native American nurses were conducted. Data analysis used interpretive phenomenological procedures including an iterative p…
Healing Fractured Families
Suicide rates among American Indian youth in the United States are two to three times the national average. Risk factors for American Indian youth include depression, alcohol use, hopelessness and stress, and family conflict, abuse, poverty, and instability. In this descriptive study, the authors aimed to obtain parents’ and elders’ perspectives on community needs and to identify strengths on which the community might build to reduce youth suicid…
Respecting Tribal Traditions in Research and Publications
A dialogue with five Native American scholars provides insight into conducting research and publishing resulting manuscripts on Native American topics, specifically healing beliefs and practices. This information provides a means to develop sensitivity and create understanding about concerns held by Native Americans regarding sharing certain defined cultural information with those outside the culture. The article identifies salient tribal issues …
Health Promotion in Cervical Cancer Prevention among the Yakama Indian Women of the Wa’shat Longhouse
The purpose of this 3-year study was to gain a greater understanding of the importance of the Wa’Shat Longhouse religion to the design of a culturally appropriate health promotion (cervical cancer prevention) program with the Yakama Indian people of eastern Washington. This descriptive study involved interviews with 10 Wa’Shat members, observations, and participant observations of 30 community ceremonial activities. The framework of health promot…
Community Partnership Research with the Yakama Indian Nation
Community organization has been an important part of applied anthropology for much of its history. Recently, fields such as health education and public health have made contributions to this area of knowledge. This paper reports on a participatory action research (PAR) project using principles from various fields as they apply to the early detection of cervical cancer through Pap smears. The project was carried out with the Yakama Indian Nation t…
The Importance of Qualitative Research in Addressing Cultural Relevance
Across Indian communities, the spirit of self-determination is in the air. Tribes are contracting with the federal government in order to take responsibility for health and governance as sovereign nations. For too long others have defined tribal needs, conceptualized tribal problems, and used their theoretical models in implementing interventions. In this age of self-determination, more tribal communities want to partner with others in studies af…
