DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): An interactive multimedia CD-ROM and Internet/intranet program providing cultural diversity training will be produced for use in worksites. The Phase II project will develop and evaluate a theoretically-grounded intervention designed to increase: (a) awareness of personal biases and personal reactions to difference; (b) knowledge about bias related to several dimensions of diversity (e.g., race/ethnicity, gender, disability, and age); and (c) skills in communicating in a culturally diverse workplace (e.g., attending, reflecting, taking in difficult-to-hear information, clarifying, and recovering from communication errors). The program will employ demographic targeting on race/ethnicity and gender, tailoring on motivation for training, and self-efficacy. In addition, the program will embed evaluation and remediation to assess and to correct user performance. The construction of the material presented will be determined using formative research procedures with focus groups and in-depth interviews with men and women from several different groups: (a) four race/ethnic groups (African American, Asian/Pacific Islander, European American, and Hispanic); and (b) three groups with workers from populations with high rates of workplace discrimination claims (gender, disability and age bias). Program efficacy will be evaluated with a randomized controlled clinical trial.

描述（由申请人提供）：将制作一个提供文化多样性培训的互动多媒体光盘和互联网/内联网程序，供工作场所使用。第二阶段项目将制定和评估一项有理论依据的干预措施，旨在提高：（a）对个人偏见和个人对差异的反应的认识;（B）对与多样性若干方面有关的偏见的了解（例如，种族/民族、性别、残疾和年龄）;以及（c）在文化多样的工作场所中的沟通技能（例如，注意、反思、接受难以听到的信息、澄清和从沟通错误中恢复）。该计划将采用针对种族/民族和性别的人口统计学，根据培训动机和自我效能进行调整。此外，该计划将嵌入评估和补救措施，以评估和纠正用户的表现。 将通过与重点小组的形成性研究程序和对来自几个不同群体的男女的深入访谈来确定所介绍材料的结构：（a）四个种族/族裔群体（非洲裔美国人、亚洲/太平洋岛民、欧洲裔美国人和西班牙裔）;（B）三个群体，工人来自工作场所歧视索赔率高的人群（性别、残疾和年龄偏见）。将通过随机对照临床试验评价项目疗效。
