Topic. Limited research has examined trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among Asian Indians in the U.S. Thus, we (1) synthesize literature on trauma, PTSD, disparities in treatment for PTSD, the burden of untreated PTSD, and culturally-adapted (CA) PTSD interventions; and (2) discuss recommendations for clinicians/researchers working with this population.Method. We searched two databases using keywords related to Asian Indians, PTSD, and interventions. Of 238 identified articles, we used content from 26 articles to inform our review.Findings. Asian Indians report traumatic experiences before, during, or after immigration to the U.S. and consequential PTSD symptoms. Further, Asian Indians in the U.S. are disproportionately impacted by socio-cultural and economic determinants of poor mental health (e.g., shame/stigma associated with seeking mental health services, few culturally-responsive services), which may contribute to the under-reporting of PTSD and (interpersonal) traumas and less willingness to seek treatment. Additionally, CA PTSD interventions tailored to Asian Indians in the U.S. have not been developed. Socio-cultural considerations that can inform CA PTSD interventions for Asian Indians include: causal conditions (e.g., culturally-rooted beliefs about trauma/PTSD), intervening conditions/barriers (e.g., emotional inhibition), and mitigating/coping strategies (e.g., religious/spiritual practices, cultural idioms of distress). These considerations influence clinician/treatment preferences (e.g., solution-oriented and structured therapy, less emotional exposure). Lastly, we outline recommendations for clinicians/researchers: (1) need for national studies on trauma, PTSD, treatment utilization, and the burden of untreated PTSD; (2) consideration of immigration-related experiences influencing PTSD; (3) consideration of socio-cultural elements for CA PTSD interventions; and (4) need for culturally-valid PTSD assessments.

美国的亚裔印第安人与创伤后应激障碍干预:叙事文献综述

主题。有限的研究检查了美国亚裔印度人的创伤和创伤后应激障碍 (PTSD) 因此,我们 (1) 综合了有关创伤、PTSD、PTSD 治疗差异、未治疗 PTSD 的负担和文化适应 (CA) 的文献创伤后应激障碍干预;(2) 讨论对与该人群一起工作的临床医生/研究人员的建议。方法。我们使用与亚裔印度人、创伤后应激障碍和干预措施相关的关键词搜索了两个数据库。在 238 篇确定的文章中,我们使用了 26 篇文章的内容来为我们的评论提供信息。发现。亚洲印度人报告在移民到美国之前、期间或之后的创伤经历以及随之而来的 PTSD 症状。此外,在美国的亚裔印度人受到心理健康状况不佳的社会文化和经济决定因素的不成比例的影响(例如,与寻求心理健康服务相关的羞耻/耻辱,很少有文化响应服务),这可能导致报告不足创伤后应激障碍和(人际)创伤以及寻求治疗的意愿降低。此外,尚未开发出针对美国亚裔印度人的 CA PTSD 干预措施。可以为亚洲印度人的 CA PTSD 干预提供信息的社会文化因素包括:因果条件(例如,关于创伤/PTSD 的文化根深蒂固的信念)、干预条件/障碍(例如,情绪抑制)和缓解/应对策略(例如,宗教/精神实践,痛苦的文化习语)。这些考虑因素会影响临床医生/治疗偏好(例如,以解决方案为导向的结构化治疗,较少的情绪暴露)。最后,我们概述了对临床医生/研究人员的建议:(1)需要对创伤、PTSD、治疗利用和未经治疗的 PTSD 的负担进行全国性研究;(2) 考虑影响 PTSD 的移民相关经历;(3) 考虑 CA PTSD 干预的社会文化因素;(4) 需要文化上有效的 PTSD 评估。治疗利用率,以及未经治疗的 PTSD 的负担;(2) 考虑影响 PTSD 的移民相关经历;(3) 考虑 CA PTSD 干预的社会文化因素;(4) 需要文化上有效的 PTSD 评估。治疗利用率,以及未经治疗的 PTSD 的负担;(2) 考虑影响 PTSD 的移民相关经历;(3) 考虑 CA PTSD 干预的社会文化因素;(4) 需要文化上有效的 PTSD 评估。
