Mental Health Values Differences between Native American and Caucasian American College Students.
Tyler, John D.; Suan, Lance V.
Journal of Rural Community Psychology, v11 n2 p17-29 Win 1990
Used the Mental Health Values Questionnaire to compare concepts of mental health in 66 Native American and 93 Caucasian American college students. Caucasian Americans tend more strongly to associated unconventional experiences of reality, such as visions, with poor mental health, whereas Native Americans were more likely to view such experiences as emotionally healthy.
