To investigate the prevalence of self-reported experiences of ethnic discrimination and bullying among Sami and non-Sami adults.
Cross-sectional, questionnaire-based survey.
SAMINOR is a population-based study of health and living conditions that was administered in 2003-2004 in 24 different Norwegian and Sami populated municipalities within central and northern Norway. This analysis was based on 12,265 men and women aged 36-79 years. Ethnic distribution was Sami (33.1%), Kvens (7.8%) and the ethnic Norwegian majority (59.1%).
Overall, Sami and Kven respondents reported more ethnic discrimination and bullying in general than ethnic Norwegians (p < 0.001). The reporting was highest among the younger participants (p < 0.001). Men reported more ethnic discrimination than women, while women reported more bullying. Respondents with the strongest Sami affiliation reported higher levels of ethnic discrimination outside the Sami Language Act's district, while respondents with weak Sami affiliation, Kvens and ethnic Norwegians, reported higher levels inside this district. Among the respondents that reported bullying previously, the most common type was discriminating remarks and the most common location was public schools. For those who reported bullying in the past year, the most common types were gossiping and discriminating remarks, and the most common locations were at work and in the local community. Two out of three of those reporting ethnic discrimination, independent of ethnicity, also reported bullying.
The findings from this study show that the Sami and Kven population more often experience bullying and ethnic discrimination than ethnic Norwegians. These results are consistent with experiences from other minority and marginalized groups that experienced colonization. More research is needed to understand the role bullying and ethnic discrimination play in the wellbeing and health of the Sami and Kven population.
调查萨米族和非萨米族成年人自我报告的种族歧视和欺凌经历的发生率。
基于问卷调查的横断面研究。
萨米族健康与生活状况研究（SAMINOR）是一项针对健康和生活条件的人群研究，于2003年至2004年在挪威中部和北部24个不同的挪威人及萨米人聚居的自治市进行。该分析基于12265名年龄在36至79岁之间的男性和女性。种族分布为萨米族（33.1%）、克文人（7.8%）和挪威族多数群体（59.1%）。
总体而言，萨米族和克文族受访者报告的种族歧视和欺凌情况总体上比挪威族受访者更多（p < 0.001）。在较年轻的参与者中报告率最高（p < 0.001）。男性报告的种族歧视比女性更多，而女性报告的欺凌更多。与萨米族联系最紧密的受访者在《萨米语言法》规定区域之外报告的种族歧视水平更高，而与萨米族联系较弱的受访者、克文人以及挪威族受访者在该区域内报告的种族歧视水平更高。在之前报告过遭受欺凌的受访者中，最常见的类型是歧视性言论，最常见的地点是公立学校。对于那些在过去一年中报告遭受欺凌的人来说，最常见的类型是流言蜚语和歧视性言论，最常见的地点是工作场所和当地社区。在报告种族歧视的人中，三分之二的人，无论其种族如何，也报告遭受过欺凌。
本研究结果表明，萨米族和克文族人群比挪威族人群更常经历欺凌和种族歧视。这些结果与其他经历过殖民化的少数群体和边缘化群体的经历一致。需要更多研究来了解欺凌和种族歧视在萨米族和克文族人群的幸福和健康中所起的作用。
