Zelfmoordinterventie voor inheemse jongeren in Alaska (BeWeL)

22 oktober 2026 bijgewerkt door: Elizabeth D'Amico, RAND

Vergelijkende effectiviteit van twee cultureel gerichte zelfmoordinterventies voor inheemse jongeren in Alaska

Two interventions will be delivered virtually to American Indian/Alaska Native youth who have been hospitalized with suicidal attempt, suicidal ideation, or associated risk behaviors, including alcohol-related injury.

Studie Overzicht

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial whereby Alaska Native (AN) youth who are hospitalized for suicide risk will be randomly assigned to either Qungasvik/Tools for Life or Tools for Life + Motivational Interviewing Social Network (MISN) intervention after their baseline survey, and followed up at 3-, 6-, and 12 months. All youth will receive Tools for Life and two 30-minute virtual follow-up visits (at 2- and 6-weeks post intervention) focused on connectivity to culture and obtaining support from intergenerational social networks in their home communities. Half of the youth will also receive MISN in addition to Tools for Life. Both interventions will be delivered virtually by a wellness team comprised of Alaska Native community behavioral health aides, prevention specialists and/or Elders who function in their communities as natural healers.

Actieve vergelijker: Tools for Life

All youth will receive the Tools for Life (Qungasvik) intervention. Tools for Life is an evidence-based, community-developed intervention focused on providing protective cultural experiences for Alaska Native youth to address suicide risk and alcohol use.

Tools for Life focuses on empowering youth to learn more about their culture and their identity.

Actieve vergelijker: Tools for Life + Motivational Interviewing Social Network intervention (MISN)

Half of the youth will will also receive MISN in addition to the Tools for Life intervention. MISN is an evidence-based treatment that augments motivational interviewing with personal social network composition and structure visualization as a means to cultivating healthy social networks and cultural worlds.

Tools for Life focuses on empowering youth to learn more about their culture and their identity. MISN focuses on helping youth get support from their community and social networks.

Social network composition
Tijdsspanne: Change from baseline to 3 months

Participants will be asked to name 15 contacts ("alters") who are at least 18 years of age. Participants will rate each of the 15 people on the same set of questions with categorical response options (about demographics, relationship quality, likelihood to use drugs, etc.). For each participant, the selected responses will be summed across all of the network alters and divided by 15 to produce network composition percentages of the whole set of alters named by the participant (% of AI/ANs, % who engage in heavy drinking).

Social network structure
Tijdsspanne: Change from baseline to 3 months

Participants will rate the relationship strength between each of the 15 named alters. For each alter pair participants will rate if the two people know each other and, if yes, have individuals connected recently. Measures of network structure (i.e., network "connectedness") will be constructed from the set of evaluations for each participant. For example, network "density" will be constructed for the network overall, which is calculated by summing the number of alter pairs who know each other and dividing by the total number of possible ties among 15 alters (105). Individual alter "centrality" will be calculated by summing the number of connections each individual alter has with other alters in the network.
