“…Internet and mobile-based interventions appear to be promising for potential scalability and may therefore contribute to narrow the worldwide treatment gap, particularly among “hard-to-reach populations” such as culturally diverse populations (e.g., Abi Ramia et al, 2018 ; Atallah et al, 2018 ; Burchert et al, 2019 ; Carswell et al, 2018 ; Cuijpers et al, 2008 ; Garabiles et al, 2019 ; Hedman et al, 2012 ; Kayrouz et al, 2018 ; Muñoz, 2010 ; Sijbrandij et al, 2017 ; Wang et al, 2013 ). Through large randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and pilot studies, several research groups seek to examine the effectiveness of culturally adapted online-interventions for treating common mental disorders such as depression, anxiety or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and culturally shaped concepts of distress in different indigenes cultures and their diaspora ( Harper Shehadeh et al, 2020 ; Kayrouz et al, 2015a , Kayrouz et al, 2016b ; Reich et al, 2019 ; Salamanca-Sanabria et al, 2018 , Salamanca-Sanabria et al, 2020 ; Sidani et al, 2018 ; Slobodin et al, 2018 ; Ünlü Ince et al, 2013 ; van't Hof et al, 2020 ).…”
