dc.description.abstract | A questionnaire study among 124 students at Haskell Indian Nations University investigated the
hypothesis that engagement with Indigenous identity—assessed along 3 dimensions including
degree (identification scale), content (pan-ethnic or tribal nation), and context (reservation or
non-reservation)—can serve as a psychological resource for well-being and liberation from
oppression. Consistent with this hypothesis, degree of identification was positively correlated
with community efficacy and perception of racism. Apparently inconsistent with this hypothesis,
degree of identification among students who had resided on a reservation was negatively
correlated with the social self-esteem subscale of the Current Thoughts Scale (Heatherton &
Polivy, 1991). Rather than evidence against the identity-as-resource hypothesis, this pattern may
reflect the cultural grounding of self-esteem and tools designed to measure it. | |
