The first living condition-survey among people with intellectual disability in Sami areas in Norway was conducted in 2017. The purpose of this article is to present and discuss results from the living-condition study, with a focus on the results related to mental health and bullying as a risk factor for poor mental health among people with intellectual disability and a Sami background. We have conducted a questionnaire survey among people with intellectual disability in Sami areas, with and without a Sami background (N = 93). People with intellectual disability have poorer mental health compared to the population in general and those with Sami background have the poorest mental health. Bullying is one of several factors that increase the risk of poor mental health among people with intellectual disability and Sami background. Having a Sami background makes people with intellectual disability more disposed to poor mental health.
2017年，挪威首次对萨米地区智障人士的生活状况进行了调查。本文旨在展示和讨论生活状况研究的结果，重点关注与心理健康以及欺凌行为相关的结果，欺凌行为是导致具有萨米背景的智障人士心理健康不佳的一个风险因素。我们对萨米地区有和没有萨米背景的智障人士进行了问卷调查（N = 93）。与普通人群相比，智障人士的心理健康状况较差，而具有萨米背景的人心理健康状况最差。欺凌行为是增加具有萨米背景的智障人士心理健康不佳风险的几个因素之一。具有萨米背景使智障人士更容易出现心理健康问题。
