Book excerpt: Research (Thomas & Sillen, 1972) indicates that slavery has impacted and shaped the identity of African Americans and their adaptation to life in the United States. Psychological, social, economic and political issues, as well as racism and the breakdown of family structure have acted as contributing factors to a mentality of social disparity and an accompanying reactive anger. The result is a cultural milieu in which African American male youths have engaged and or participated in or are at risk to engage and or participate in antisocial and maladaptive patterns of behavior. Additionally, fixed or static environmental risk factors and complex urban environmental stressors also support barriers to the development of socially acceptable ways to cope and to mediate violence. Consequently, urban youth are challenged in their ability to develop or maintain healthy social interaction skills which can possibly hinder or prevent a youth from achieving particular goals. Hence, there is a critical need to provide at risk youth with anger management, effective coping skills and related social services. The program, Resources for Inner-city youth through Support and Education (R.I.S.E.) program provides a sound method designed to reduce and extinguish delinquent behaviors and patterns, anti-social acts m1d criminal thinking errors. In addition, to allowing for increased options for socially adaptive behaviors and responses to daily life situations and challenges they may often face. Eitle and Turner (2003) argues that an individual can manage their confronted "strains" if given the opportunity to have the effective coping methods, in addition to an extensive social support system, enhancement of their self-efficacy, the ability and skills to problem and a positive self-concept.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to determine if a group anger management curriculum with cultural components, decreases state and trait anger among Native American adolescents. Participants were 18 high school male and female students who attended school in a small Northwestern community in Minnesota. All participants stated that they were Native Americans. Adolescents in the experimental group participated in eight sessions of a group anger curriculum with cultural components. The curriculum utilized elements from the American Indian Life Skills Development Curriculum (LaFromboise, 1996), and the Anger Management for Substance Abuse and Mental Health Clients (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2012). In addition Native American elders were invited to participate in the curriculum and share personal experiences. These students took a pre-assessment of the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory-2, Child and Adolescent (STAXI-2 C?A) version, participated in the eight sessions, and then post-assessed with STAXI-2 C/A. Adolescents in the control group pre-assessed in their homeroom class, did not receive the group anger management curriculum with cultural components, and then were post-assessed utilizing the same assessment tool. Pre-post assessment scores were analyzed for control versus experimental groups. It was predicted that the students who received the group anger management curriculum with cultural components, would show decreased levels of state and trait anger. The results of this study were inconclusive. Qualitative data was not collected but students and school faculty indicated that the curriculum was impactful.

Download or read book Cultural Trauma written by Ron Eyerman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-12-13 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Ron Eyerman explores the formation of the African-American identity through the theory of cultural trauma. The trauma in question is slavery, not as an institution or as personal experience, but as collective memory: a pervasive remembrance that grounded a people's sense of itself. Combining a broad narrative sweep with more detailed studies of important events and individuals, Eyerman reaches from Emancipation through the Harlem Renaissance, the Depression, the New Deal and the Second World War to the Civil Rights movement and beyond. He offers insights into the intellectual and generational conflicts of identity-formation which have a truly universal significance, as well as providing a compelling account of the birth of African-American identity. Anyone interested in questions of assimilation, multiculturalism and postcolonialism will find this book indispensable.
