As part of the National Action Alliance for Suicide Prevention's American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) Task Force, a multidisciplinary group of AI/AN suicide research experts convened to outline pressing issues related to this subfield of suicidology. Suicide disproportionately affects Indigenous peoples, and remote Indigenous communities can offer vital and unique insights with relevance to other rural and marginalized groups. Outcomes from this meeting include identifying the central challenges impeding progress in this subfield and a description of promising research directions to yield practical results. These proposed directions expand the alliance's prioritized research agenda and offer pathways to advance the field of suicide research in Indigenous communities and beyond.
作为美国国家预防自杀行动联盟的美国印第安人和阿拉斯加原住民(AI/AN)特别工作组的一部分,一个由AI/AN自杀研究专家组成的多学科小组召开会议,概述了与自杀学这一细分领域相关的紧迫问题。自杀对原住民的影响尤为严重,偏远的原住民社区可以为其他农村和边缘化群体提供至关重要且独特的见解。本次会议的成果包括确定阻碍该细分领域进展的核心挑战,以及描述有望产生实际成果的研究方向。这些提议的方向扩展了联盟的优先研究议程,并为推进原住民社区及其他地区的自杀研究领域提供了途径。
