The Relationships Between Western Educational Institutions and the Psychological Organization of an Alaska Native Cultural Group
Arthur E. Hippler and Judith Kleinfield
The major conclusion of this research are that difficulties in Alaska Native educational achievement are rooted in two heuristically distinct but related problems: First: A substantial number of Eskimo children, especially those more traditionally socialized, have difficulty expressing emotional and affectual impulses. They tend to withdraw under stress, such as that of boarding schools, and in fact may have difficulty integrating their emotional and cognitive needs. In many cases, intrusions of early developmental problems and poor ego integration may make sublimation of drives in the service of learning very difficult. Second: This problem is compounded by the fact that high school . programs away from home exacerbate previously existing conditions and precipitate severe social and emotional problems for such students. Some exceptions to this rule exist, as we shall note, but overall, and for most students, schooling in the community of origin and attention to the special emotional needs of such students by providing warm and supportive, positive goal and value oriented educational environments are the generally most desirable educational alternatives.

The Alaska Eskimos A Selected Annotated Bibliography
Arthur E. Hippler and John R. Wood
This Report is one in a series of selected, annotated bibliographies on Alaska Native groups that is being published by the Institute of Social and Economic Research. It comprises annotated references on Eskimos in Alaska. A forthcoming bibliography in this series will collect and evaluate the existing literature on Southeast Alaska Tlingit and Haida groups. ISER bibliographies are compiled and written by institute members who specialize in ethnographic and social research. They are designed both to support current work at the institute and to provide research tools for others interested in Alaska ethnography. Although not exhaustive, these bibliographies indicate the best references on Alaska Native groups and describe the general nature of the works.
