Welcome to the Multicultural Lab at UT Austin
The Multicultural Psychology Lab is dedicated to research on multicultural processes in personality development and functioning and to the application of the APA Cultural Competency Guidelines to assessment and treatment. Our lab is committed to improving access to treatment for underserved populations, and to conducting and disseminating culturally competent treatment interventions for minority populations. Furthermore, it also seeks to encourage undergraduate students from underrepresented ethnic/racial groups to pursue careers in social science research and mental health service. Currently, our research interests are focused on developing culturally sensitive treatments for African-American and Latino populations. Another research interest is understanding the effects of intergenerational acculturation gaps in immigrant populations.
The Multicultural Lab is currently full to capacity, and thus, will not be accepting students. Questions about the lab may be sent to brittany.hall@mail.utexas.edu or fabian.aguirre@mail.utexas.edu or nanci.argueta@mail.utexas.edu.
