Abstract

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages can be seen as an integral aspect of cultural health. While colonisation has had devastating effects upon Indigenous languages, communities are increasingly reclaiming their languages, as a means to cultural preservation, community wellbeing and healing. Currently, there are no tools that specifically measure the potential positive impacts of language revival on the wellbeing of Indigenous peoples. This article brings together two broad constructs, social and emotional wellbeing and language reclamation, and describes an approach to developing a survey instrument to measure the relationship between Indigenous languages and wellbeing. With an emphasis on decolonising approaches to research, it steps out the key activities undertaken to develop the Indigenous Language and Wellbeing Survey. This article highlights the importance of addressing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander research priorities. It also shows how qualitative material can guide the development of a quantitative survey in mixed-methods research.

发展土著语言和福利调查:将定性调查结果纳入调查工具的方法
土著和托雷斯海峡岛民语言可被视为文化健康的一个组成部分。虽然殖民对土著语言造成了毁灭性的影响,但社区越来越多地收回他们的语言,作为文化保护、社区福祉和治疗的一种手段。目前,还没有专门衡量语言复兴对土著人民福祉潜在积极影响的工具。本文汇集了两个广泛的概念,社会和情感福祉和语言回收,并描述了开发一种测量土著语言与福祉之间关系的调查工具的方法。报告强调非殖民化的研究方法,列出了为发展土著语言和福利调查而开展的主要活动。本文强调了解决土著和托雷斯海峡岛民研究优先事项的重要性。它还显示了定性材料如何指导混合方法研究中定量调查的发展。
