5203 |a“This report reviews the literature on the mental health research related to Canadian Aboriginal peoples to identify emerging trends. The topics covered include: 1. an overview of epidemiological data on Aboriginal mental health in Canada; 2. a critical review of literature on prevention and treatment among Aboriginal peoples in Canada; 3. a discussion of emerging trends in research themes and methods; and 4. guidelines for future research. There are limited epidemiological data available on the mental health of Canadian Aboriginal peoples. Rates of psychiatric disorders vary across communities but in several cases appear to be substantially higher than in the general population. Most of these reports do not include standardized diagnostic assessments and do not meet the scientific standards of current research. Few intervention programs or forms of indigenous healing have been systematically studied"--Executive summary, p. 4.
