註釋This thesis is an empirical study that analyzes how spirituality acts as a protective process that promotes resilience among American Indian youth. The study focused on 54 high-risk American Indian adolescents and their school-based competence. Relationships between spirituality, enculturation, well-being and adversity are examined. The results of the study found that spirituality was strongly related to enculturation and that girls had higher academic competence and higher enculturation scores. In general, the study shows that students who have spiritual beliefs are more likely to be successful in school.
