EXCEED THE SPACE PROVIDED. DESCRIPTION Academic psychology has historically been monocultural. Moreover, academia itself is a culture and those who receive academic training become acculturated to it. Acculturation involves the changes that groups and individuals undergo when they come into contact with another culture. Mental health research training in psychology has acculturated trainees toward a monocultural, European American worldview. The purpose of this proposal is to compare the benefits of multicultural training in clinical psychology with monocultural training. The proposed project will focus on ethnic minority undergraduates who are interested in graduate training in clinical psychology. The program will help trainees to recognize differences in the behavior of multiple ethnic groups, as well as differences within these groups. One long-term objective is to identify mental health research training components that will effectively meet the needs of trainees to understand culturally diverse populations. A second long-term objective is to increase the availability of multicultural research training that will be more relevant to the mental health needs of culturally diverse populations. It is hypothesized that: (1) Students who have completed the proposed Multicultural training program will be more likely than students in the Monocultural training program to apply to graduate programs based on multicultural considerations; (2) Ethnic minority participants in the proposed Multicultural training program will exhibit a greater commitment to the profession of clinical psychology because the multicultural emphasis will make clinical psychology a more viable career than in the other condition; and (3) Participants in the proposed Multicultural training program will exhibit greater multicultural awareness and knowledge than the participants in the other conditions, as a function of the training content.

超出所提供的空间。学术心理学在历史上一直是单一文化的。此外，学术本身就是一种文化，那些接受学术训练的人会适应它。文化适应涉及群体和个人在接触另一种文化时所经历的变化。心理健康研究训练使受训者适应了单一文化的欧美世界观。本建议的目的是比较临床心理学多元文化培训与单一文化培训的好处。本项目主要面向对临床心理学研究生培养有兴趣的少数民族本科生。该项目将帮助学员认识到不同种族群体的行为差异，以及这些群体内部的差异。一个长期目标是确定心理健康研究培训的组成部分，以有效满足受训者了解文化多样化人口的需要。第二个长期目标是增加多文化研究培训的可得性，这种培训将与文化多样化人口的心理健康需求更加相关。假设：(1)完成多元文化培训计划的学生比完成单一文化培训计划的学生更有可能申请基于多元文化考虑的研究生课程；(2)少数民族被试在多元文化培训计划中表现出对临床心理学职业更大的承诺，因为多元文化的强调使临床心理学成为一个比其他条件下更可行的职业；(3)由于培训内容的作用，参与拟议的多元文化培训计划的参与者将比其他条件下的参与者表现出更强的多元文化意识和知识。网站性能 ======================================== 节结束 ===========================================
