abstract: 'Treatments of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) often evidence high
|
|
|
|
rates of dropout, ranging from 25\% to 40\%, among English-speaking
|
|
|
|
samples. Written Exposure Therapy (WET), a novel manualized treatment
|
|
|
|
for PTSD, evidences lower dropout rates and noninferiority to CPT, one
|
|
|
|
of the most efficacious interventions for PTSD. Spanish-speaking Latinxs
|
|
|
|
often experience greater dropout and barriers to care. WET appears
|
|
|
|
promising for this population, but acceptability and perceived barriers
|
|
|
|
to WET have not been examined among Spanish-speaking Latinxs. The
|
|
|
|
present study assessed perceptions and acceptability of a
|
|
|
|
Spanish-language version of WET among Spanish-speaking Latinxs who
|
|
|
|
scored greater than 45 on the Spanish-language version of the PCL-IV,
|
|
|
|
indicating likely PTSD (n = 20) and providers (n = 12). Participants
|
|
|
|
completed a mixed-methods interview regarding reasons they/clients would
|
|
|
|
not want to receive the treatment, why they/clients would want to
|
|
|
|
receive the treatment, potential solutions for any identified barriers,
|
|
|
|
and reasons for not seeking mental health services generally. Providers,
|
|
|
|
but not potential recipients, identified low literacy as a barrier for
|
|
|
|
WET. Providers and potential recipients identified time as a barrier to
|
|
|
|
WET and other mental health services, but the time reduction was
|
|
|
|
perceived as a potential facilitator of WET. Results also suggest no
|
|
|
|
specific cultural barriers were identified for WET (e.g., provider
|
|
|
|
cultural competency) and that Spanish WET may reduce time-related
|
|
|
|
barriers and is perceived as effective and acceptable among
|
|
|
|
Spanish-speaking Latinxs. Additional work is needed to expand the reach
|
|
|
|
of the intervention, given that mental health services were often
|
|
|
|
perceived as untrustworthy.
|
|
|
|
Impact Statement This study suggests that a Spanish-language adaptation
|
|
|
|
of Written Exposure Therapy, a novel manualized treatment for PTSD
|
|
|
|
symptoms, may be effective in reducing some structural barriers that
|
|
|
|
Spanish-speaking Latinx populations encounter when using mental health
|
|
|
|
services.'
