“…Two articles relating to diabetes management were considered as one intervention because they reported on different outcomes for the same participants in the same intervention study (Kim et al 2009; Song et al 2010). Similarly, two articles reporting on different aspects of the same chronic mental illness intervention were regarded as one (Shin and Lukens 2002; Shin 2004). Although two articles (Kim and Menon 2009; Kim et al 2010) tested the same intervention program (‘Go Early’), the articles were considered as separate intervention tests because they reported on studies that had different participants, study periods, and designs.…”

“…The Learned Resourcefulness Model guided two interventions in the area of chronic disease management (Han et al 2010; Kim et al 2006, 2008, 2011). Stress Theory in combination with SCT and Family Systems Theory directed the intervention related to chronic mental illness (Shin 2004; Shin and Lukens 2002). The Cognitive-Social Health Information Processing Model guided a study related to tobacco cessation (Fang et al 2006).…”

Objective Because little is known about promising interventions to prevent and control chronic disease in Korean Americans, we conducted a systematic literature review to investigate: (1) theoretical frameworks and strategies employed by interventions targeting Korean Americans; (2) cultural factors considered by these interventions; and (3) the extent of their success in engaging Korean participants and improving their health. Design Following the PRISMA guidelines, PubMed, PsycInfo, and Web of Science were searched to identify primary research articles evaluating interventions to prevent or control chronic disease, tailored to Korean Americans, and published from 1980 through 2011. Of 238 articles identified, 21 articles describing16 unique intervention tests met inclusion criteria. These interventions targeted cancer (10), hypertension (2), diabetes (1), mental health (1), tobacco cessation (1), and general health (1). Results All included studies were published since 2000, reflecting the relatively recent establishment of intervention research with Korean Americans. All 16 programs delivered linguistically appropriate messages and education. The 11 programs that realized significant intervention effects also provided or coordinated social support from culturally relevant and well-trained lay health workers, nurses, or family members during an intervention and/or follow-up period. Conclusions Culturally matched and linguistically appropriate messages and education may not be enough to prevent or control chronic disease among immigrant Korean Americans. Culturally sensitive and committed social support should be provided to catalyze behavioral changes and sustain the effect of the interventions.

“…Most mental health specialists define the reintegration of PMI into their communities (Shin, 2004) as successful rehabilitation. In this regard, most mental rehabilitation programs are designed to improve PMI's social and vocational skills (Bae, 2006;Biegel, Pernice-Duca, Chang, & D'Angelo, 2012;Dixon et al, 2002).…”

Calls for cultural sensitivity in the design and implementation of human services programs have become a standard response to the increasing diversity among the families and communities being served. In this article, we take a critical look at the construct, using data from a multiyear evaluation of a statewide family support program. We examine how selected, locally implemented programs operationalize the state program's cultural sensitivity standard, using both etic and emic approaches; that is, we apply extant cultural competence definitions to assess program cultural sensitivity and document how the program staff articulated their approach to the cultural sensitivity. Findings suggest that programs focus more directly on the immediate cultural relevance of their services, rather than on developing more generalized competencies among their staff. Further, findings indicate that program-to-community alignment may well be a more useful representation of how programs address cultural issues. C 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Calls for cultural sensitivity in the design and implementation of human services programs have become a standard response to the increasing diversity among the families and communities being served. This program disposition, described interchangeably as cultural competence, cultural awareness, cultural sensitivity, cultural responsiveness, and the achievement of cultural ''match,'' has significant cachet in the practice literature, although there are few precise definitions of what it is and little research on its effectiveness. In this article, we take a critical look at the construct, using data from a multi-year evaluation of a statewide family support program. We examine how selected, locally implemented programs operationalize the state program's cultural sensitivity standard and discuss the implications of our findings for the development of a more contextualized construct.The program under discussion provides support and information to first-time parents-age 20 and under-toward the goal of optimizing children's development, reducing child maltreatment and repeat pregnancies, and encouraging parental educational and economic achievement. The program model has a set of specific standards to which locally implemented programs are expected to adhere, including the requirement that services be offered within a culturally sensitive framework, i.e., relevant for the particular communities being served. Embedded in a large-scale evaluation that included both implementation-focused and outcome-focused components, 1 the present study was designed to apply extant cultural competence definitions to assess the extent to which locally implemented programs were addressing the cultural sensitivity standard and to understand how the program staff articulated their approach to cultural sensitivity.
