The authors sought to identify the problems non-Native American nurse researchers might have in gaining access to Native American cultures. The authors' method was nursing ethnography; several different tribes were observed. Findings revealed five significant categories of barriers to health care: understanding of cultural differences, language barriers, differences in interpersonal communication, historical antipathy/fear of exploitation by Native Americans, and distrust of researcher motivation. The authors make several recommendations for researchers to prepare extensively if they plan to work with Native Americans.
作者试图找出非美国原住民护士研究人员在接触美国原住民文化时可能遇到的问题。作者采用的方法是护理人种志;观察了几个不同的部落。研究结果揭示了医疗保健方面的五个重大障碍类别:对文化差异的理解、语言障碍、人际沟通差异、美国原住民历史上的反感/对剥削的恐惧以及对研究人员动机的不信任。作者为计划与美国原住民合作的研究人员提出了几项建议,即他们应做好充分准备。
