RE: Hispanic Veteran Initiative
Hello,
I apologize if I have sent this message already. I am on an educational delay in active duty service, pursuing my doctorate in psychology to serve as an Army psychologist. I am currently conducting a study that is focused on Hispanic veterans and I thought you may be able to offer some help in spreading the word through your network. I sincerely appreciate any efforts to assist.
My intent to is add to the relatively small emphasis on multicultural competency that currently exists in military psychology as research suggests such knowledge may inform more effective treatment. I am collecting data through a completely anonymous online survey which takes roughly 25 minutes to complete and has been approved for use by the University of Tennessee Institutional Review Board.The study announcement pasted below contains further information. Gaining greater participation in the study will help ensure more credible results and a more solid contribution to existing knowledge. Thus, ultimately, it may help inform effective mental health care. Any and all assistance in dispersing the research announcement is incredibly helpful. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, concerns or suggestions. I understand many such requests may come your way and I greatly appreciate any form of help you can provide. Sincere thanks,
Catherine Herrera
