Historical trauma has been established as a determinant of health among all Hawaiians, but limited research exists on how Wāhine (Native Hawaiian women) uniquely experience historical trauma. A phenomenological qualitative study was conducted to primarily understand how historical trauma, trauma response, and the transmission and modes of intergenerational trauma intersect with sexism and patriarchy among contemporary Wāhine, as described in the Historical Trauma Conceptual Model. With partnership and approval of the Waimānalo Pono Research Hui, interviews were conducted with 13 Wāhine from various generations in Hawai'i. The structural, institutional, interpersonal, and internal levels of 'Eha (loosely translated as hurt/suffering/to inflict pain/cause hurt or suffering) were generated as prominent themes from the data. Findings from this project communicate the urgency for change to heal Wāhine with radical aloha and to support them in reimagining a world that is inclusive of their needs.
历史创伤已被确认为所有夏威夷人健康状况的一个决定因素，但关于夏威夷原住民女性（瓦希内）如何独特地经历历史创伤的研究却很有限。本研究采用现象学质性研究方法，主要目的是了解历史创伤、创伤反应以及代际创伤的传递和模式，如何与当代瓦希内中的性别歧视和父权制相互交织，这一过程参照了历史创伤概念模型。在怀马纳洛·波诺研究协会的合作与批准下，对夏威夷不同年龄段的13名瓦希内进行了访谈。从数据中得出的突出主题包括“埃哈”（大致翻译为伤害/痛苦/造成疼痛/导致伤害或痛苦）在结构、制度、人际和内在层面的体现。该项目的研究结果表明，迫切需要做出改变，以激进的阿罗哈精神治愈瓦希内，并支持她们重新构想一个能满足其需求的包容世界。
