“Indigenist” Collaborative Research Efforts in Native American Communities
Abstract
This chapter addresses the issues and difficulties in doing research on ethnic minorities in a sensitive and respectful manner that will ultimately benefit the ethnic community. It defines indigenist community-based participatory research and decolonizing partnership strategies. It uses examples from Indian Country in how to form such research. The principles of such research include recognizing the community as a unit, building on the strengths of the community, facilitating community capacity building, striking a balance between research and action, emphasizing local relevance and contexts, and generating systems growth.

ICBPR has emerged as a potent research approach that incorporates principles of co-learning, co-commitment to community well-being, and integration of community theories, protocols, and stakeholders throughout the research enterprise.
“In response, Indigenist community-based participatory research (ICBPR) has emerged as a potent research approach that incorporates principles of co-learning, co-commitment to the well-being of the community, and integration of community theories, protocols, and stakeholders throughout the research enterprise (Walters & Stately et al., 2009).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
