| Abstract | Awareness of our biases is essential to multicultural counseling competence, and recent advances in implicit social cognition reveal that therapists who are motivated to be egalitarian may be susceptible to the activation and application of stereotypes outside of awareness. Once therapist-trainees (TTs) are alerted to this possibility, anxieties about implicit stereotyping may render stereotypes acutely accessible during therapy, leading to ironic processes which create the very stereotype activation and application that TTs wish to avoid. This study piloted an intervention for stereotype automaticity in TTs based upon mindfulness meditation, a practice of awareness and acceptance of thoughts and feelings in the present moment. Changes in class scheduling cross-contaminated the treatment groups; problems with web-based software resulted in massive data loss and attrition, as well as delays that required a change from the proposed quasi-experimental, interrupted time-series, cohort design to a simple pretest-posttest design. Future changes to replicate the study are discussed. |
