Eating disorders affect all ethnic and socioeconomic groups. However, evidence based treatments for eating disorders have been developed and tested exclusively on Caucasian populations. With the purpose to develop a culturally sensitive framework for the eating disorders treatment in Latinos/as, the objectives of this work were: 1) identify and describe some of the relevant cultural elements for eating disorders in the Latino population and, 2) to draft a culturally sensitive intervention model for eating disorders in Latino population in the United States. Providing culturally sensitive treatments for Latinos with psychiatric disorders is essential to reverse public health disparities.
饮食失调影响所有种族和社会经济群体。然而，针对饮食失调的循证治疗方法仅在白人群体中得到开发和测试。为了为拉丁裔人群的饮食失调治疗制定一个具有文化敏感性的框架，这项工作的目标是：1）识别和描述拉丁裔人群中与饮食失调相关的一些文化元素，以及2）为美国拉丁裔人群的饮食失调起草一个具有文化敏感性的干预模型。为患有精神疾病的拉丁裔人提供具有文化敏感性的治疗对于扭转公共卫生差距至关重要。
