Summary of “psychotherapy research in the deaf community
Psychotherapy research in the deaf community
At the time of publication, there are no evidence-based psychotherapies to treat any behavioral health condition with Deaf clients. This article describes unique study design considerations for psychotherapy clinical trials conducted in the U.S. Deaf community. We synthesized emergent themes from participant exit interviews with feasibility data and real-life challenges that our team encountered when implementing the Signs of Safety pilot clinica…
Acculturative Stress, Mental Health, and Well-Being among Deaf Adults
Acculturative stress is associated with negative mental health among culturally diverse individuals. Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing (DHH) individuals experience acculturative stress as they navigate within and between the Hearing and Deaf communities, yet, research has not examined the relationship between deaf acculturative stress and psychological functioning. This study examined the relationships between deaf acculturative stress, well-being, and sy…
Heterogeneity in Alcohol-Related Severity and Interests in Going to Treatment in Community Adults with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)
RATIONALE: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is highly prevalent among adults in the US and is associated with substantial personal and societal costs. Yet only a small percentage of adults with AUD initiate treatment, including those with severe AUD symptoms who are most in need of treatment. In this paper we use latent profile analysis (LPA) to describe differences in symptoms of AUD severity and alcohol-related consequences among untreated adults wit…
No Taxation Without Representation
Minority faculty and trainees experience unique factors that can hinder their success in academic medicine—collectively referred to as “minority tax.” The authors argue that a similar “deaf tax” of unique barriers, experiences, and responsibilities disproportionately burdens deaf trainees and faculty. The cumulative effects of these deaf tax experiences represent a significant disadvantage for deaf professionals in academic medicine. Through a co…
Development of the Multidimensional Inventory of Deaf Acculturative Stress
Deaf adults may experience acculturative stress as they navigate within and between the Hearing and Deaf communities. However, no measure has been developed to assess levels of deaf acculturative stress. This study aimed to develop the Multidimensional Inventory of Deaf Acculturative Stress (MIDAS). The MIDAS was developed through a sequential and iterative scale development procedure and then tested on a sample of 104 deaf adults across the Unit…
Navigating Deaf and Hearing Cultures
While there are many benefits of bilingualism and biculturalism, it is increasingly recognized that individuals may also experience acculturative stress as they navigate between different cultural environments. Acculturative stress results from struggles to acculturate, including pressures from the dominant culture and one’s heritage culture to maintain specific languages, values, and customs. This study sought to explore experiences of accultura…
Culture and Deaf Women’s Body Image
The sociocultural model of eating disorders highlights the role of internalization of the thin ideal in the development of negative body image and disordered eating. Considering the limited diversity of models in mainstream media, individuals belonging to minoritized cultural groups may resist identifying with and internalizing mainstream beauty messages. The extent of internalization may also depend on an individual's acculturation status and ex…
