基于强调多元文化取向以及与多元文化价值观相关的美德和性情的发展的最新理论,我们引入了文化谦逊的概念,其定义为具有以他人为导向而不是以自我为中心的人际立场,其特点是尊重个人的文化背景和经验,并且不具有优越感。在四项研究中,我们提供了证据,证明来访者对治疗师文化谦逊的评价指标的估计可靠性和结构有效性,并且我们证明,来访者对其治疗师文化谦逊的看法与建立强大的工作联盟呈正相关。此外,来访者对治疗师文化谦逊的看法与治疗的改善呈正相关,而这种关系是由强大的工作联盟来调节的。我们考虑对研究、实践和培训的影响。
Building on recent theory stressing multicultural orientation, as well as the development of virtues and dispositions associated with multicultural values, we introduce the construct of cultural humility, defined as having an interpersonal stance that is other-oriented rather than self-focused, characterized by respect and lack of superiority toward an individual's cultural background and experience. In 4 studies, we provide evidence for the estimated reliability and construct validity of a client-rated measure of a therapist's cultural humility, and we demonstrate that client perceptions of their therapist's cultural humility are positively associated with developing a strong working alliance. Furthermore, client perceptions of their therapist's cultural humility were positively associated with improvement in therapy, and this relationship was mediated by a strong working alliance. We consider implications for research, practice, and training.
