Hi everyone,
My name is Allison Pow and I'm an assistant professor at The University of Texas at San Antonio. My co-investigator and I are working on a study looking at the construct of cultural humility and how it may impact the effectiveness of trauma treatment. Specifically, we want to know if mental health professionals whose clients rate them as more culturally humble actually see greater success in reducing traumatic symptoms and greater client satisfaction with treatment. We believe that culture plays a central role in how we make meaning of significant events in our lives and is therefore central to good trauma treatment. We would like to learn more about how these relationships work. We think this is a very important and timely study, especially in light of recent racial and religious tensions within the U.S., but we still need assistance finding participants.
We have about 1/3 of the response that we need right now and I am hoping that some of you may be able to help spread word about the study and perhaps connect those who may be interested/eligible with us so that we an tell them more about it.
The study involves an online anonymous survey that takes about 30 mins to complete. Anyone who is at least 18 years old and currently in mental health treatment for issues related to trauma is eligible to participate. Trauma does not have to be the focus of treatment and may be something that is addressed from time to time or in some way related to the current focus of treatment (e.g., relationship issues that were influenced by past trauma).
If you or someone you know may be eligible for the study, please contact me at allison.pow@utsa.edu or (704) 995-2585 (cell) for more information or follow the study link below!
