This study compared the perceptions of problematic behavior and the suggested management of those behaviors by six minority groups and mental health professionals. Minority respondents (N = 159) included Chinese-Americans, Mexican-Americans, Filipino-Americans, Native-Americans, Black-Americans, and Appalachians. Mental health professional respondents (N = 68) were from Pennsylvania, Louisiana, and California. All respondents were interviewed using a structured interview schedule. Groups were compared on responses to 10 vignettes. There were significant differences between minority and mental health professional groups, both in the labels placed on problematic behaviors and in the suggested management of the behaviors. The relationship of sample variables to response revealed that minority group status was the strongest descriptor of group response.
本研究比较了六个少数群体和心理健康专业人员对问题行为的认知以及对这些行为的建议管理方式。少数群体受访者（N = 159）包括华裔美国人、墨西哥裔美国人、菲律宾裔美国人、美国原住民、非裔美国人和阿巴拉契亚人。心理健康专业人员受访者（N = 68）来自宾夕法尼亚州、路易斯安那州和加利福尼亚州。所有受访者均通过结构化访谈日程进行访谈。对10个案例的回答进行了组间比较。少数群体和心理健康专业人员群体之间在对问题行为的标签以及对行为的建议管理方面均存在显著差异。样本变量与回答之间的关系表明，少数群体身份是群体回答的最强描述因素。
