The illusion of inclusion: contextual behavioral science and the Black community
Overview
This paper critiques the application of contextual behavioral science, specifically ACT and FAP, within Black communities, arguing that current practices fail to adequately address racial stress and trauma. The authors highlight gaps in efficacy data for people of color and identify systemic inequities maintained by covert racist policies in research and organizational settings. The resource is intended for researchers and professional organization leaders seeking to understand and eradicate racism within the psychological field.
