Abstract This explanatory study examined Hmong college students’ experience, awareness, and appropriate response to domestic violence in the Hmong community, using a survey (n = 231) at one of the largest Hmong-serving institutions in the United States. Findings indicated that 32.8% of Hmong college women had some violence from their romantic partners and two thirds of Hmong college men and women were aware of violence in the Hmong community. Those young generation Hmong reported that the most appropriate method to solve conflicts within the Hmong community is through the traditional clan system. These results can be used to begin formulating research-based cultural competence education for providers in the criminal justice system and facilitate discussions on youth perceptions.

转型中的文化：苗族美国大学生对家庭暴力的认识和适当应对

摘要这项解释性研究在美国最大的苗族服务机构之一中进行了一项调查（n = 231），调查了苗族大学生对苗族社区家庭暴力的经历，认识和适当反应。调查结果显示，有32.8％的苗族大学生因恋爱伴侣遭受了一些暴力行为，三分之二的苗族大学生男女都意识到苗族社区的暴力行为。苗族年轻一代报告说，解决苗族社区内部冲突的最合适方法是通过传统的宗族制度。这些结果可用于开始为刑事司法系统中的提供者制定基于研究的文化能力教育，并促进关于青年观念的讨论。
