Publisher Description
Empirical research has consistently shown that persons of color are routinely diagnosed with more severe mental disorders than European Americans. One possible reason for this phenomenon is racial diagnostic bias. This article summarizes research on diagnosis and race, provides an overview of clinician bias during the diagnostic process, and describes implications for psychotherapy practice. Key Words: racial bias, diagnosis, objectivity, interventions
