RESUMO
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to transcreate a manualized cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) intervention to address depression and anxiety among Hispanic cancer survivors. DESIGN/RESEARCH APPROACH: Stakeholders reviewed the CBT workbook for language, content, and cultural relevance. We designed semi-structured interview guides to elicit intervention feedback. SAMPLE/PARTICIPANTS: Stakeholder participants were Hispanic cancer survivors (n = 4), bilingual mental health providers (n = 2), and oncology professionals (n = 4). METHODS: Transcreation was conducted by initial translation of the workbook followed by incorporation of stakeholder feedback. A bilingual (Spanish and English) interviewer conducted stakeholder interviews. The study team discussed themes/suggestions before refining the workbook. FINDINGS: Stakeholders reported enthusiasm for the intervention. We gathered significant feedback regarding wording, images, and resources for the workbook. CONCLUSION: Development of culturally appropriate mental health resources for Hispanic cancer survivors is critical. IMPLICATIONS FOR PSYCHOSOCIAL PROVIDERS OR POLICY: By broadening research on psychosocial care to the Hispanic population, we increase the reach of evidence-based psychological care. Future research should fully evaluate the adapted CBT intervention among Hispanic survivors.
