Protective Factors as a Unifying Framework for Strength-Based Intervention and Culturally Responsive American Indian and Alaska Native Suicide Prevention

Abstract: The ongoing challenge of American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) youth suicide is a public health crisis of relatively recent historical origin inadequately addressed by contemporary prevention science. A promising development in AIAN suicide prevention highlights the role of protective factors. A protective factor framework adopts a social ecological perspective and community-level intervention paradigm. Emphasis on protection highlights strength-based AIAN cultural strategies in prevention of youth suicide.… Show more

“…In a recent review, Allen and colleagues (2021) discuss the distinctions between protective factors, protective mechanisms, and resilience, highlighting how a lack of clarity in past research has hampered progress in the field of AIAN suicide prevention science. They further introduce concepts of self-continuity and cultural-continuity to put forth their “unifying framework” of protective factors in strengths-based, culturally responsive AIAN suicide intervention and prevention.…”

“…They further introduce concepts of self-continuity and cultural-continuity to put forth their “unifying framework” of protective factors in strengths-based, culturally responsive AIAN suicide intervention and prevention. Finally, they put forth recommendations for application of a protective factors framework that aim to address barriers, many of which we identified in our corpus (e.g., clarifying theory underlying protective factors, moving beyond the individual; see Allen et al, 2021, for full recommendations).…”

“…In recent theory guiding intervention (Allen et al, 2021), resilience is multilevel systems process at the interface of risk with protective factors; protective mechanisms buffer risk or, alternatively, are promotive of adaptation. This process can lead to positive or resilient multilevel outcomes that include the community, family, and individual levels (Tedeschi & Calhoun, 2004).…”
