Indigenous communities across Canada have established principles to guide ethical research within their respective communities. Thorough cataloging and description of these would inform university research ethics boards, researchers, and scholars and facilitate meaningful research that respects Indigenous-defined ethical values. A scoping study was conducted of all relevant peer-reviewed literature and public-facing Indigenous research ethical guidelines from First Nations, Metis, and Inuit communities and organizations in Canada. A total of 20 different Indigenous research ethics boards, frameworks, and protocols were identified. Analysis resulted in three key themes: (1) balancing individual and collective rights; (2) upholding culturally-grounded ethical principles; and (3) ensuring community-driven/self-determined research. Findings demonstrate how employment of Indigenous ethical principles in research positively contributes to research outcomes.

In this research, we outline some of the ways Plains Cree and Métis youth in a Canadian urban context experience time, are oriented toward constructs of the future, and how they construct meaning amidst life's challenges. We also examine how orientations toward time can affect developmental outcomes, attitudes toward daily routines, resilience strategies, and motivations for health and well-ness-seeking behaviors. A notion of time orientation as a theoretical perspective guides this research, particularly how these orientations relate to processes of resilience among youth, such as belonging, self-mastery, or cultural identity and continuity. Given the relative lack of literature examining time orientations in the contexts of Indigenous youth resilience and well-being, it is argued that health-related interventions with Indigenous youth in similar urban contexts could benefit from deeper under-standings of the concepts of time and future orientations and their associations with ...
