Indigenous people experience disproportionally higher rates of sexual violence, but we know little about how to prevent sexual violence among this population. The purpose of this study was to understand the perspectives (e.g., causes, prevention) of sexual violence among an Indigenous community residing on a large rural Indian Reservation in the Northern Great Plains. The study conducted seven focus groups with adults, high school students, and middle school students, and a thematic analysis approach was used to assess the gestalt of the data. Three primary themes emerged from the data: (a) causes of sexual violence, (b) characteristics and contexts of sexual violence, and (c) prevention of sexual violence. Specifically, Indigenous relatives desired sexual violence education; however, there was agreement that there is a lack of programming or education from schools and community organizations. Notably, adults focused on how colonization affected the attitudes and behaviors related to sexual violence and the importance of empowering youth. Adolescent boys believed that the general acceptance of physical violence and bullying in their community led to a culture of ambivalence and distrust of sexual assault disclosures. Adolescent girls referenced how gender and social norms that subjugate women/girls have led to rape myth acceptance and victim-blaming. Findings highlight the need for empowerment-based, culturally grounded, gender transformative prevention programs to address the social biases and gender norms that contribute to sexual violence while promoting cultural strengths and community among youth. This research has important implications for informing sexual violence prevention programming across Indian country.

“我们要开始治愈”:北部大平原印第安人农村保留地对性暴力的看法
原住民遭受的性暴力率高得不成比例,但我们对如何防止这一人群中的性暴力知之甚少。本研究的目的是了解居住在北部大平原大型农村印第安人保留地的土著社区性暴力的观点(例如,原因、预防)。该研究对成人、高中生和初中生进行了七个焦点小组,并使用主题分析方法来评估数据的格式塔。数据中出现了三个主要主题:(a) 性暴力的原因,(b) 性暴力的特征和背景,以及 (c) 预防性暴力。具体来说,原住民亲属希望接受性暴力教育;然而,人们一致认为学校和社区组织缺乏编程或教育。值得注意的是,成年人关注殖民化如何影响与性暴力有关的态度和行为,以及赋予青年权力的重要性。青春期男孩认为,他们社区普遍接受身体暴力和欺凌,导致了一种矛盾的文化,以及对性侵犯披露的不信任。青春期女孩提到了征服妇女/女孩的性别和社会规范如何导致接受强奸神话和指责受害者。研究结果强调需要基于赋权、以文化为基础的性别变革预防计划,以解决导致性暴力的社会偏见和性别规范,同时促进青年的文化优势和社区。这项研究对为印度全国的性暴力预防计划提供信息具有重要意义。
