We discuss a study entitled: Asian Americans’ Mental Health Help-Seeking Attitudes: The Relative and Unique Roles of Cultural Values and Ethnic Identity by Shahid, Weiss, Stoner, and Dewsbury published in 2021.
So few Asian Americans seek out mental health help. The authors of this paper thought that Asian American cultural values may be influencing the desire to seek out help from a mental health professional. Is it really possible that cultural values can have a part in whether or not we get help?
