Neuroscientific Framework of Cognitive–Behavioral Interventions for Mental Health Across Diverse Cultural Populations: A Systematic Review of Effectiveness, Delivery Methods, and Engagement
Overview
This systematic review synthesizes 94 studies on the effectiveness of culturally adapted cognitive-behavioral therapy for diverse populations. It highlights that such adaptations improve engagement and outcomes compared to standard protocols, particularly through group formats in collectivistic cultures and hybrid models. The resource notes limited direct neuroimaging evidence and emphasizes that cultural background is one factor among many in treatment planning.
