A report from Mid-Sweden University explores the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an individually tailored and culturally adapted internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy for Arabic-speaking refugee and immigrant youths in Sweden. The study found that this particular group of youths is at a higher risk for developing mental disorders, but there is low use of mental health services among them. The intervention had a high dropout rate and low feasibility, suggesting that recruitment strategies, treatment content, and cultural adaptation need refinement. The study emphasizes the importance of culturally adapted psychological interventions for this population. [Extracted from the article] |
