Zusammenfassung: | The standards of the National Association of Social Workers (2001) for culturally
competent practice and the Council on Social Work Education's (2001) accreditation
standards require monitoring and evaluation of the multicultural competencies of
students and professional social workers. The absence of assessment instruments
impedes feedback about compliance and the effectiveness of multicultural
practice. Results of the present study support the use of 2 self-report subscales
of the Multicultural Competence Inventory (MCI) for evaluating worker self-perceptions
of competency. The MCI will also help provide empirical feed-back
about students' views of their own progress, particularly within programs
emphasizing social justice and diversity. |
