Exploring the feasibility and acceptability of BRiTA's individual and online delivery

2021 
Building Resilience in Transcultural Australians (BRiTA) is a strength-based preventative program that facilitates the acculturation and resilience of migrants. This study explored the feasibility and acceptability of delivering the BRiTA program to culturally and linguistically diverse adults in an individual setting via an online platform, Zoom. Four adults participated in four weekly sessions of BRiTA in either English or Persian. Participants completed pre-and post-questionnaires assessing acculturation, resilience, and psychological well-being. They also provided feedback after every session and at the end of the program. Thematic analysis was used to interpret the qualitative data. A reliable change index was used to investigate pre-to-post change quantitatively. Findings supported the feasibility and acceptability of delivering BRiTA in an individual setting via Zoom and highlighted the strength and utility of the program. Participants demonstrated varying levels of change in acculturation, resilience, and psychological well-being. BRiTA’s individual delivery via Zoom, implications and future research directions are discussed.
