This book brings clarity to the current evidence base, so the conversation becomes more reliant on data than opinion. Using meta-analytic methods to summarize what we know, the authors establish core principles for multicultural scholarship and provide some answers to the fundamental questions. For instance, how large are racial discrepancies in mental health service utilization and what factors predict them? How are perceptions of racism and ethnic identity related to psychological well-being? And to what extent can therapists multicultural competence benefit diverse clients? The answers to these questions are relevant to every therapist who works in our multicultural world.
