Conversations between Latina mothers and their child's mental health provider: An observational study of shared decision-making regarding pediatric patient mental health needs.
The authors evaluated shared decision-making (SDM) and delineated SDM processes in audio-recorded conversations between language-congruent Spanish-/English-speaking clinicians and parents of pediatric mental health patients. They found that their present sample performed on par with other populations studied to date, and that it expanded the evaluation of observed SDM to include Latino patients and new clinician populations. The practical implications of their findings is that use of the Observer OPTION(5) instrument highlights that eliciting and integrating parent/patient preferences is a skill that requires attention when delivering culturally competent interventions.
