Social and Emotional Distress among American Indian and Alaska Native Students: Research Findings. ERIC Digest

Link: http://www.indianeduresearch.net/edorc01-11.htm.

Many American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) youth are repeatedly exposed to opportunities to participate in self-destructive and illegal behaviors. This digest examines risk factors associated with four contexts: peers, family, school, and community. Recent research has shown that, relative to national averages, AI/AN youth have higher rates of illicit drug use, reckless behaviors involving motor vehicles, and suicide.
