“…What is most concerning, however, is the dearth of research concerning Latino families and families of color in general. Domenech-Rodriguez and Wieling (2005) contend that the ''neglect of families of color -whether overt or not-has contributed to the perpetuation of misunderstandings, oppressive attitudes, and ultimately, poorly designed programs of intervention and psychotherapy'' (p. 313). Adding to the complexity of the problem is that issues of race and culture have not been taken seriously in scientific and clinical studies.…”

Latinos comprise a diverse ethnic group in the United States, yet central concepts describing Latinos persist. The purpose of this study was to assess the degree to which Latinos agree with the statements found in the marriage and family therapy (MFT) literature used to describe Latinos and Latino families, as well as their help-seeking attitudes and experiences. Research questions were derived from five constructs used to describe Latinos: familism, personalism, sense of hierarchy, spiritualism, and fatalism (Ho in Family therapy with ethnic minorities. Sage, Newbury, CA, 1987; Ho et al. in Family therapy with ethnic minorities, (2nd ed.). Sage, Thousand Oaks, CA, 2004). Overall, participants agreed with most of the statements pertaining to familism and personalism. However, mixed results were found for the constructs related to sense of hierarchy, spiritualism, and fatalism, as well as for participants' help-seeking attitudes and behaviors. Latinos in this sample sought mental health professionals. However, MFTs were not sought as frequently as psychiatrists, psychologists, and clergy.

“…CAP's Phase I involves the creation of collaborative relationships. Relationship building occurs between program stakeholders including among the scientists who will adapt the intervention and program developers, as well as between scientists and community members in various positions including practitioners, local policy makers, and likely participants Domenech-Rodríguez and Wieling 2004). Additional actions in Phase I can include a needs assessment as well as an evaluation of intervention to be adapted in light of the extant research literature pertinent to the new cultural group.…”

“…Another literature on ethnicity and minorities also called attention to the problems of treating ethnic and language minorities with conventional psychological approaches, suggesting the need to adapt treatments (Aponte, Younng Rivers, & Wohl, 1995;Bernal, Bonilla, & Bellido, 1995;Bernal & Sáez-Santiago, 2005Betancourt & López, 1993;Casas, 1995;Comas-Díaz & Griffith, 1988;Domenech-Rodríguez & Wieling, 2004;López et al, 1989;Mays & Albee, 1992;Nagayama Hall, 2001;Pendersen, 2003;Ponterotto, Casas, Suzuki, & Alexander, 1995;Sue & Zane, 1987). Recently, practice guidelines have been published for working with multicultural (American Psychological Association, 2002) and ethnic minority populations (Council of National Psychological Associations for the Advancement of Ethnic Minority Interests, 2003), and a new literature has emerged around the issue of multiculturalism and cultural competence (Sue, Arendondo, & McDavis, 1992;Sue & Torino, 2005).…”

This article provides an introduction to the special issue on intervention development and cultural adaptation research with diverse families. The need for research on intervention development and on cultural adaptation of interventions is presented, followed by a discussion of frameworks on treatment development. Seven articles included in this special issue serve as examples of the stages of treatment and intervention development, and of the procedures employed in the cultural adaptation with diverse families. An overview of the seven articles is provided to illustrate the treatment development process and the use of pluralistic research methods. We conclude with a call to the field for creative and innovative intervention development research with diverse families to contribute to the body of evidence-based practice with these populations.
