Studies of wellness among American Indian peoples§have historically been heavily deficit-based and§problem-saturated. In an effort to change this§paradigm, Cutler explored the roles played by§self-efficacy (an individual s capacity to execute§and organize the actions required to manage difficult§life situations) and resilience (the achievement of§competence or positive development outcomes under§conditions that are adverse or that challenge§adaptation) in the lives of American Indian adults§identified by their communities as trauma survivors§who had subsequently become leaders in their Native§community. Using narrative data obtained through a§phenomenological qualitative study, the author§discovered that what was "wrong" with these people,§wasn''t as important as what was "right", and how§these unique and powerful experiences could be used§to inform and direct counseling and other helping§efforts with American Indian people.
