Psychotherapy clients often hold multiple and varied cultural identities, and it is important for therapists to attend to the intersectionality of clients' cultural identities, as well as the saliency of these identities. However, to date, few studies have considered the saliency of clients' multiple identities and how this may impact clients' perceptions of cultural processes in therapy. Therefore, this study utilized polynomial regression and response surface analysis to operationalize and examine congruent and discrepant effects between the saliency of clients' multiple identities and their perceptions of their therapists' cultural humility and cultural missed opportunities. Data for this study consisted of 87 clients who received individual counseling services at either a university counseling center or training clinic at two large universities in the United States. As hypothesized, results indicated significant discrepant effects between the saliency of clients' first and second most important cultural identities and perceptions of their therapists' cultural humility and cultural missed opportunities. Specifically, clients' ratings of their therapist's cultural missed opportunities were lowest when they reported either a) high saliency of cultural identity one and low saliency of cultural identity two, or b) low saliency of cultural identity one and high saliency of cultural identity two. Similarly, clients' ratings of their therapist's cultural humility were highest when they reported either a) high saliency of cultural identity one and low saliency of cultural identity two, or b) low saliency of cultural identity one and high saliency of cultural identity two.

心理治疗客户通常拥有多种不同的文化身份，治疗师关注客户文化身份的交叉性以及这些身份的显著程度非常重要。然而，迄今为止，很少有研究考虑客户多种身份的显著程度以及这可能如何影响客户对治疗中文化过程的看法。因此，本研究利用多项式回归和响应面分析来操作和检验客户多种身份的显著程度与他们对治疗师文化谦逊和文化错失机会的看法之间的一致和不一致效应。本研究的数据来自在美国两所大型大学的大学咨询中心或培训诊所接受个体咨询服务的 87 名客户。正如假设的那样，结果表明，客户对治疗师文化谦逊和文化错失机会的看法与他们的第一和第二重要文化身份的显著程度之间存在显著的不一致效应。具体而言，当客户报告 a）文化身份一的显著程度高而文化身份二的显著程度低，或 b）文化身份一的显著程度低而文化身份二的显著程度高时，他们对治疗师文化错失机会的评价最低。同样，当客户报告 a）文化身份一的显著程度高而文化身份二的显著程度低，或 b）文化身份一的显著程度低而文化身份二的显著程度高时，他们对治疗师文化谦逊的评价最高。（PsycInfo 数据库记录（c）2021 APA，保留所有权利）。
