Lewis, Pamela H.

Readiness to change toward cultural awareness and sensitivity in a state mental health organization. - 275 p.

Advisers: Michael Pratt; Blue Wooldridge.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Virginia Commonwealth University, 2008.

Utilizing Robertson, Roberts, and Porras (1993) model of change as a framework, this research sought to further our understanding of organizational change through evaluating the impact of a cultural awareness and sensitivity education intervention on five categories of social factors within a mental healthcare organization and; in turn, the social factors effect on mental health care providers' individual behavior: Employing a repeated measures design, baseline surveys were administered and participants were randomized to control and xv intervention conditions and participants were tested again at Time 2 (post-test) and Time 3 (follow-up). Data was analyzed using mediation analysis, linear and multiple regression analysis, and repeated measures MANOVA.

520 $a Utilizing Robertson, Roberts, and Porras (1993) model of change as a framework, this research sought to further our understanding of organizational change through evaluating the impact of a cultural awareness and sensitivity education intervention on five categories of social factors within a mental healthcare organization and; in turn, the social factors effect on mental health care providers' individual behavior: Employing a repeated measures design, baseline surveys were administered and participants were randomized to control and xv intervention conditions and participants were tested again at Time 2 (post-test) and Time 3 (follow-up). Data was analyzed using mediation analysis, linear and multiple regression analysis, and repeated measures MANOVA.
520 $a Social exchange theory provided some insight into the nature of the relationship among the social factors (i.e., organizational commitment, psychological contract, perceived organizational support, organizational climate, and exchange ideology) and mental health care providers' individual behavior (i.e., change self-efficacy and readiness to change). The results suggest: (1) the cultural awareness and sensitivity education intervention had a significant positive effect on the dependent variables and a portion of the social factors; (2) the size of the beta coefficients suggest that exchange ideology is an important variable when measuring change since it was significant throughout the study; (3) perceived organization support as a mediator was not supported; (4) time seemed to be an important factor. The social factors that were significant mediators had larger beta coefficients in Time 3, and (5) results indicated that all of the social factors (with the exception of perceived organization support) were significant mediators between cultural awareness and sensitivity and readiness to change. Only exchange ideology was a significant mediator between cultural awareness and sensitivity and change self-efficacy. In summary, this study shows some support for the usefulness of the Robertson et al. framework and there exists an opportunity for planned change interventions surrounding the implementation of enhanced cultural awareness and sensitivity education in mental health care providers' journey toward cultural competence.
