Cultural Adaptations to the Assessment and Treatment of Trauma Experiences Among Racial and Ethnic Minority Groups: A Mixed-Methods Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Overview
This mixed-methods systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness and participant experiences of culturally adapted trauma assessments and interventions for adults from racial and ethnic minority groups. The authors identify eight common adaptation themes, such as language adjustments and cultural matching, and report that these adaptations significantly reduced PTSD and anxiety symptoms compared to non-adapted interventions in the short term. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in evidence-based cultural modifications for trauma care.
