Psychotherapist multicultural competence has been given increasing attention in the field of psychology since the 1970s. However, individuals and communities who are Black, Indigenous, or People of Color are still less likely to attend psychotherapy and often drop out earlier than White clients. These trends highlight the importance of the ongoing research on therapist multicultural competence. There are many multicultural competencies, however, the current study focuses on therapist cultural humility. Specifically, we systematically searched all the current research on the association between cultural humility and client experiences and outcomes in therapy. Our literature search yielded eight studies that met our search criteria. Next, we synthesized the data by conducting a meta-analysis using the metric of Pearson's r as the effect size. In addition, we aggregated average item-level therapist scores and the reliability coefficient of the Cultural Humility Scale (CHS; Hook et al., 2013). We found a moderate positive correlation between client perceptions of therapist cultural humility and client experiences and outcomes in therapy of r = .39 (p < .05). Furthermore, we found the average item-level score to be 3.86 out of a maximum score of 5 (SE =.086), which corresponds with the rating of "mildly agree," indicating that clients typically perceive therapists to demonstrate cultural humility. Finally, we found CHS to be reliable across studies, with an average alpha coefficient of .91. These finding suggest that cultural humility is an important aspect of the psychotherapeutic relationship. Furthermore, they suggest that the CHS is a reliable measure and should continue to be used in future studies. Finally, because our review yielded only eight studies, more research on this relationship is needed.

[pt] As práticas da humildade ampliam a excelência organizacional e a vantagem competitiva, sendo utilitária a criação de modelos para a sua internalização nas organizações. A cultura de humildade é pouco estudada no campo da gestão, em função de seus desafios conceituais e metodológicos. A fim de cobrir essa lacuna, este projeto tem por objetivo propor e validar um modelo de maturidade da cultura de humildade organizacional (MCH) que suporte a internalização desse valor nas organizações em regime progressivo. Abordagens metodológicas mistas são utilizadas ao longo de três fases: (i) qualitativa - criação do modelo preliminar da cultura de humildade organizacional (CHO), (ii) quantitativa - validação do CHO com seus construtos fundamentais e (iii) validação junto a lideranças corporativas do conteúdo do MCH. Os resultados indicam os construtos fundamentais do CHO: equilíbrio, elogio, confiança, colaboração, feedback, criatividade, e comunicação, a partir dos quais configura-se o MCH que propõe um continuum de 5 estágios de maturidade cultural: retórico, embrionário, estimulado, pleno e virtuoso, sendo que cada tipo reflete respectivamente comportamentos distintos em relação à humildade, progredindo de despreocupado, reativo, obrigatório, voluntário até inconsciente, no qual as práticas de humildade se internalizam em ações virtuosas. Ao apresentar um modelo estruturado, objetivo e progressivo dos comportamentos de humildade, o estudo evidencia os desafios para uma evolução cultural nas organizações: liderança, comunicação, e trabalho em equipe. Adicionalmente o estudo oferece potenciais endereçamentos às organizações e apresenta avenidas de oportunidade para pesquisas futuras, como ulteriores testes do modelo. / [en] The practices of humility expand organizational excellence and competitive advantage, being utilitarian the creation of models for its internalization in organizations. The culture of humility is little studied in the field of management due to its conceptual and methodological challenges. In order to cover this gap, this project aims to propose and validate a maturity model for the organizational humility culture (MCH) that supports the internalization of this value in organizations in progressive regime. Mixed methodological approaches are used over three phases: (i) qualitative - creation of the preliminary model of organizational humility culture (CHO), (ii) quantitative - validation of CHO with its fundamental constructs and (iii) validation with corporate leaders of MCH content. The results indicate the fundamental constructs of CHO: balance, praise, trust, collaboration, feedback, creativity, and communication, from which the MCH is configured that proposes a continuum of 5 stages of cultural maturity: rhetorical, embryonic, stimulated, full and virtuous, and each type reflects respectively distinct behaviors in relation to humility, progressing from carefree, reactive, obligatory, voluntary to unconscious, in which the practices of humility are internalized in virtuous actions. By presenting a structured, objective and progressive model of humility behaviors, the study highlights the challenges for a cultural evolution in organizations: leadership, communication, and teamwork. Additionally, the study offers potential addresses to organizations and presents avenues of opportunity for future research, as further tests of the model.

Throughout his Preparatory Meditations, Edward Taylor used many images to deprecate himself. These images reflected his Puritan religious beliefs rather than an extremely low self-image. The themes of his poetry were taken from the Bible, but they reflected the many duties which befell him in conjunction with his ministry at Westfield. By using images which were most familiar to him and the rhetorical devices of the seventeenth century, Taylor sought to seek God's forgiveness by doing His will--confessing personal guilt, asking for forgiveness, and praising God's mercy. Because the meditations were directed only to God, Taylor never sought to publish them. Like the child he so desperately wanted to be looked upon as, he sought only his father's favor.

Bakgrund. Forskning har visat att personlighetsdimensionerna Honesty-humility från HEXACO samt Agreeableness från Big Five är viktiga indikatorer på oönskat beteende på arbetsplatsen. Det finns mycket forskning kring Honesty-humility respektive Agreeableness, dock är sambandet mellan dessa två personlighetsdimensioner, så vitt vi vet, sparsamt utforskat. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur sambandet mellan Honesty-humility och Agreeableness ser ut. Material och metod. Enkäten Riks-SOM från 2018 användes för att studera sambandet mellan Honesty-humility och Agreeableness. 3500 personer i åldersspannet 16-85 blev slumpmässigt utvalda ur registret för totalbefolkningen. Multipel regressionsanalys med 5000 bootstrapiterationer användes för att studera sambandet under kontroll för bakgrundsvariabler, med ett underlag om 1635 personer. Resultat och slutsats. Studien visade på ett positivt samband mellan Honesty-humility och Agreeableness även efter att sambandet kontrollerats för ålder, kön och utbildning. / Background. Research has shown that the personality dimensions Honesty-humility from HEXACO and Agreeableness from the Big Five are important indicators of Counterproductive workplace behavior (CWB). There is a lot of research on Honesty-humility and Agreeableness, however, as far as we know the relationship between these two personality dimensions is sparsely explored. The purpose of this study was to research the relationship between Honesty-humility and Agreeableness. Material and method. The Riks-SOM survey from 2018 was used to study the relationship between Honesty-humility and Agreeableness. 3500 people between the ages of 16-85 were randomly selected from the register for the total population. Multiple regression analysis with 5000 bootstrap iterations was used to study the relationship while controlling for background variables, with a sample of 1635 subjects. Result and conclusions. The study showed a positive relationship between Honesty-humility and Agreeableness even after controlling for age, sex, and education.

Doctor of Philosophy / Department of Psychological Sciences / Satoris S. Culbertson / Developing effective strategic thinkers in an organization requires a dedication to early identification, selection, development, and practice, along with the conceptual understanding and measurement tools to make it happen. In support of this, the current research focused on three objectives: 1) establishing theoretical support across multiple disciplines for the concept of a strategic thinking mindset, 2) developing the Strategic Thinking Mindset Test (STMT) using situational judgment test methodology for the U.S. Army, and 3) evaluating the results of a pilot test of the STMT for reliability and construct validity. The STMT focuses on three characteristics of a strategic mindset: Flexibility, Humility, and Inclusiveness. These characteristics were derived from themes found common to strategic thinking literature across the disciplines of psychology, management, and military science. In all stages of this research, officers and non-commissioned officers of the U.S. Army served as participants. The first three stages involve the development and keying of content for the STMT. A sample of 125 participants provided scenarios in Stage 1. In Stage 2, 75 participants gave feedback on the scenarios and provided realistic response options. In Stage 3, 224 participants rated the response options according to expression of the characteristic and effectiveness. In Stage 4, the pilot version of the STMT was administered to 229 participants, along with several other measures used to establish construct validity evidence. The results of the pilot test revealed that, although there is some evidence supporting the construct validity of the STMT as a three-factor test of flexibility, humility, and inclusiveness, the overall profile of evidence suggests that the construct(s) being measured are unclear. Low inter-item correlations contribute to a low internal consistency in the measure, which further limits the STMT’s use as a predictor. The pilot test revealed interesting results related to cognitive ability, specifically a negative relationship between the mindset and cognitive ability under best/worst response instructions, rather than a positive relationship or no relationship, as was the case under most/least likely response instructions. Future research recommendations are discussed in the areas of SJT development, scoring, format, and the further refinement and measurement of the strategic thinking mindset.

Agostinho confere relevância especial às coisas simples. Na infância, cuja estatura é signo da humildade própria das coisas ínfimas, deleita-se com a verdade nos seus pequenos pensamentos sobre pequenas coisas. Este deleite, na alma da criança com mínimo de ser, remete à verdade de Deus, com máximo de ser. Com máximo de ser, Deus se humilha ao ponto de assumir a condição humana, nascer como criança e com humildade contrária à soberba anular o efeito da queda causada pela soberba. Fundamento da humildade que é, poderia ser pensado menor que o homem, pois sendo Deus se fez homem. Se assim fosse, o ser com máximo de ser seria, paradoxalmente, o ser com mínimo de ser. Mas não é, pois quando Deus desce à condição inferior é para elevar o homem à condição superior. Esta é a análise a que se propõe este trabalho. / Augustine confers special relevance to simple things. In infancy, whose stature is a sign of the humility characteristic of the lowest things, he delights in the truth in their small thoughts about small things. This delight, within the child with the least of being, remits to the truth of God, with the highest of being. Yet with highest of being, God humbles himself to the point of assuming the human condition, being born as a child and, with humility contrary to pride, nullifies the effect of the fall caused by pride. The foundation of humility that he is, he could be considered less than man, because being God he became man. If it were thus, the being with highest of being would, paradoxically, be the being with the least of being. But it is not like that, because when God descends to the inferior condition, hit is to elevate man to the superior condition. This is the analysis that this work proposes.
