The Current Status of Culturally Adapted Mental Health Interventions : A Practice-Focused Review of Meta-analyses
2018
In recent years, there has been a steadily increasing recognition of the need to improve the cultural competence of services and cultural adaptation of interventions so that every individual can benefit from evidence based care. There have been attempts at culturally adapting evidence-based interventions for mental health problems, and a few meta-analyses have been published in this area. This is, however, a much debated subject. Furthermore, there is a lack of a comprehensive review of meta-analyses and literature reviews that provide guidance to policy makers and clinicians. This review summarises the current meta-analysis literature on culturally adapted interventions for mental health disorders to provide a succinct account of the current state of knowledge in this area, limitations and guidance for the future research. Keywords: Cultural adaptation, interventions, mental illness, meta-analysis, minority ethnic, psychotherapies Conflict of Interests: No funding was received for preparation of this manuscript. Some of the authors have received grants to conduct research in cultural adaptations of interventions.
