Low-income Latinas/os are exposed to widespread mental health disparities in the United States. Most recently, a resurgence of anti-immigration narratives has led vulnerable Latina/o immigrants to experience considerable contextual stressors with multiple deleterious consequences for their overall well-being, including significant disruptions to their parenting practices. Within this context of adversity and despite the multiple benefits associated with parent training (PT) prevention interventions, the availability of contextually and culturally relevant PT interventions remains limited in underserved Latina/o communities. This paper constitutes a contribution to this gap in knowledge by presenting a model of intervention delivery utilized in the dissemination of culturally adapted versions of the evidence-based intervention known as GenerationPMTO. The proposed model also describes a process of change that we have documented in empirical research with low-income Latina/o immigrant parents who have been exposed to the adapted interventions. The manuscript is organized in four sections. First, an overview of the model is discussed, along with a brief summary of major theories. Next, the core components of the model are described, complemented by the presentation of a case study. Finally, implications for prevention and clinical intervention are discussed.
美国的低收入拉丁裔面临着广泛的心理健康差距。最近,反移民言论的死灰复燃导致脆弱的拉丁裔移民经历了相当多的情境压力源,对他们的整体幸福感产生了多种有害影响,包括对其育儿实践的重大干扰。在这种逆境背景下,尽管与父母培训 (PT) 预防干预相关的好处很多,但在服务不足的拉丁裔社区中,仍然缺乏与情境和文化相关的 PT 干预措施。本文通过介绍一种干预传递模型,为这一知识空白做出了贡献,该模型用于传播称为 GenerationPMTO 的循证干预措施的文化适应版本。所提出的模型还描述了我们在接触适应干预的低收入拉丁裔移民父母的实证研究中记录的一个变化过程。本文档分为四个部分。首先,讨论了模型概述,并简要总结了主要理论。接下来,描述了模型的核心组成部分,并展示了一个案例研究。最后,讨论了预防和临床干预的意义。
