- Abstract
In this study we investigated the mental health treatment preferences held by Alaska Native (AN) college students regarding treatment type, treatment provider, and therapy roles. Preferences were compared between AN and Caucasian participants and also between ANs with high and low identification with their Indigenous culture. While there were many similarities between groups, some important differences were found. The results of this study have significant implications for making mental health treatments more available and culturally appropriate for ANs.
