APDU Member and Penn Doctoral Student Gwynne Evans-Lomayesva Recognized in Penn Today

When Penn doctoral student Gwynne Evans-Lomayesva was a researcher for the National Congress of American Indians in Washington, D.C., between 2018 and 2022, she continuously encountered datasets and analyses that either asterisked the American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) population or based conclusions on questionably small sample sizes. In fact, some of the most-cited findings used information from fewer than 200 AI/AN respondents in total, with some questions receiving fewer than five responses.

“There are 574 Federally Recognized Tribal Nations in the United States, and each of these sovereign nations holds a unique relationship with the federal government,” Evans-Lomayesva says. “Such small survey responses don’t even capture one individual per tribal nation.”
