Abstract

Etuaptmumk/Two-Eyed Seeing (E/TES) is a Mi'kmaw guiding principle that emphasises the importance of bringing together the strengths of Indigenous knowledges and Western knowledges to improve the world for future generations. Since its introduction to the academic community, E/TES has been taken up more frequently in Indigenous health research. However, as it is increasingly used, Elders and scholars have affirmed that it is at risk of being watered down or tokenised. This article reports on how E/TES was used in a community-engaged research study that examined hospital-based Indigenous wellness services in the Northwest Territories, Canada. As a living, relational, and spiritual principle, E/TES was used in the study in three interrelated ways. E/TES: (1) guided the study ontologically, shaping the research team's conceptualisation of knowledge and knowledge generation; (2) informed the research team's approach to relationship-building; and (3) guided reflexivity amongst team members. By reporting on how E/TES was used in the study, and critically reflecting on the strengths and challenges of the approach, this article seeks to contribute to growing scholarship about how E/TES is characterised and taken up in Indigenous health research.

在对加拿大西北地区以医院为基础的土著人健康服务进行的一项研究中,反思 Etuaptmumk/Two-Eyed seeing 的使用。
Etuaptmumk/双眼观察(E/TES)是米克马克人的一项指导原则,强调将土著知识和西方知识的优势结合起来,为子孙后代改善世界的重要性。自 E/TES 被引入学术界以来,它在土著健康研究中的应用越来越频繁。然而,随着它的使用越来越多,长老和学者们都认为它有被淡化或象征化的危险。本文报告了 E/TES 在一项社区参与研究中的应用情况,该研究考察了加拿大西北地区以医院为基础的原住民健康服务。作为一项活生生的、相互关联的精神原则,E/TES 在研究中以三种相互关联的方式得到了应用。E/TES:(1) 在本体论上指导研究,塑造研究团队的知识概念和知识生成;(2) 为研究团队建立关系的方法提供信息;(3) 指导团队成员之间的反思。通过报告 E/TES 在研究中的应用情况,并对该方法的优势和挑战进行批判性反思,本文试图为有关 E/TES 在土著健康研究中的特点和应用情况的学术研究做出贡献。
