Culturally Adapted Interventions (CAIs)Culturally Adapted Interventions (CAIs)
• CAIs involve changes in approaches to service delivery, nature of the therapeutic relationship, or in components of the treatment to accommodate the cultural beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors of the target population.7
• A recent meta-analysis of CAIs found CAIs were four times more effective than interventions provided to mixed groups of patients.8
• Literature review No CAI developed specifically for African American adults with depression.

MethodsData collection time points– Screening– Baseline– Wee 6 (mid intervention)– Week 12 (immediate end of intervention)– Week 13 qualitative interview– Week 24 (3 months post-intervention
Data Analysis– Descriptive statistics (mean scores) and T test for
comparison
– Qualitative analysis used dimensional analysis to identify thems relevant to satisfaction and acceptability

Results - AcceptabilityStaff willing to help
“And if something didn’t go well, they were willing to help and try to solve the problem or come to a solution that we talked about. I think it was great for me, it was. I don’t know about nobody else, but it was beautiful to me because, I’m not a real talker with people.”
Talked and was comfortable
Oh, we talked about everything. We could soul with each other, you know. We didn’t have to make up stuff, you know. It made me feel comfortable. I felt at home. We become normal people, you know. I wish that others could have that same feeling that we had.
Trust
And we talked and we trusted one another. We didn’t go around throwing stones or talking about each other. We talked about what positive things are. We talked about that a lot. You know, and it was just a nice group. I don’t think I could get a better group.

Was the OHDDI efficacious in reducing symptoms of depression?
Measure• Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale (CES-D)
– 20-items and self-administered
– Items scored 0-3, with a possible range of scores from 0-60. – Standard cutoff score of 16 has been defined as indicating
clinical depression (Nguyen, Kitner-Triolo, Evans, & Zonderman, 2004).
– 16 to 24: borderline elevation of depressive symptoms.– 24 and above: significant elevation of depressive symptoms.

Application to Caribbean Populations
• Research– Due to similar culture and health disparities it is feasible to
replicate current study in the Caribbean
• Possible Challenges– Funding to conduct study – Perceived stigma associated with mental illness – Recruitment and retention
• Anticipated outcomes– Reduction in symptoms of depression
Despite challenges, can it be done? Yes we can!!

• Secure funding (R01) to test the intervention in a larger sample using RCT design
• Explore collaborations to replicate research in the Caribbean
