Culturally informed research design issues in a study for MDMA-assisted psychotherapy for posttraumatic stress disorder
Overview
This paper examines challenges in designing culturally informed research for MDMA-assisted psychotherapy targeting posttraumatic stress disorder among people of color. The authors describe their experience at a study site that implemented specific strategies, such as diverse treatment teams and culturally congruent settings, to address the historical exclusion of ethnic minorities from psychedelic trials. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in improving inclusivity and cultural competence in clinical trial design and implementation.
