Abstract:

Culturally diverse students are disproportionately referred to special education programs. Research suggests that referrals may be based on inappropriate assessments, socioeconomic status, low expectations, and negative teacher biases. The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a relationship between teachers' perceived level of cultural difference and their expectations of culturally diverse students. A Likert-type survey was utilized to gather information from teachers across the United States. The findings concentrated on reporting data that indicated the level of similarities

Only about 1/3 of our country has an advance directive (Off White Papers, 2014). This underutilization of advance directives is reflected in our health care spending. It is estimated that 30% of all Medicare spending occurs during the last six months of a patient’s life. The numbers are even lower when broken down into sub-categories. Only 24% of older Black Americans possess an advance directive versus 44% of their older White counterparts (Huang, Neuhaus, & Chiong, 201

Abstract:

Kim, Atkinson, and Umemoto (2001) proposed that the therapy process is enhanced when the client’s cultural values are consistent with values embedded in counseling. Thus far, empirical studies have yielded inconsistent results in terms of the effect of client adherence to Asian cultural values on perceived counselor effectiveness. The present study used an audiovisual analogue design to evaluate whether participants’ adherence to Asian cultural values predicts their perceived counselor effectiveness of an Asian American counselor, based on counseling styles (Asian vs. Western style).

However, this rationale holds under the assumption that the same organizational culture dimensions have the same weighted associations with strategy or perceived strategic alig
