Abstract:
Cross-cultural research systematically identifies variations in practices, meanings, and responses across different cultural groups. Psychiatric symptoms vary in their salience and degree to which they are reported across cultures, and a person's perception of psychiatric symptoms may influence their help-seeking intention. The present study examined the cultural mechanism of U.S. and Taiwanese mothers’ perceptions of internalizing symptoms (depressed mood and anhedonia) in youth. Using multilevel structural equation modeling, the mediation pathways demonstrated the mediating effect of adherence to East Asian cultural values (conformity, emotional self-control, and face culture) on the relationship between country of residence and mothers’ ratings of youth’s internalizing symptoms. Results from the present study informed the importance of a culturally sensitive approach to the practice of clinical psychology with youth.
