Historical trauma and oppression: Associations with internalizing outcomes among American Indian adults with type 2 diabetes

Stefanie L. Gillson et al.

Summary: American Indian (AI) people are disproportionately exposed to stressors and health inequities, and this study explores the relationships between historical trauma, discrimination, and health problems among AI adults living with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The findings suggest that experiences in foster care and ancestral experiences in boarding schools and/or relocation are associated with increased reports of historical loss, and these factors indirectly contribute to internalizing symptoms through racial microaggressions and historical losses.

Parent-Child Separations and Mental Health among First Nations and Metis Peoples in Canada: Links to Intergenerational Residential School Attendance

Robyn J. McQuaid et al.

Summary: First Nations children in Canada are much more likely to be removed from their families and placed in the child welfare system compared to non-Indigenous children. The Indian Residential School system and discriminatory public services are key factors contributing to these high rates of parent-child separation. Limited empirical evidence exists on the link between the Indian Residential School system, the child welfare system, and mental health outcomes among Indigenous populations in Canada. This study examines these relationships using representative samples of First Nations youth and adults, revealing the detrimental effects of parent-child separations and the need for Indigenous-led interventions to address these inequities.
