Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Cultural CBSM

The Culturally Adapted Cognitive Behavioral Stress Management (C-CBSM) Intervention is a 10 weekly in-person group program. Each session will last about 90 minutes. The meetings will give facts on stress, coping with difficult events, managing anger, social support and stress reactions. Participants will also receive information on how to practice relaxation on their own. The delivery of C-CBSM places a greater emphasis on salient sociocultural determinants of symptom burden and Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in Hispanics (e.g., fatalistic attitudes, family interdependence, perceived discrimination, machismo).

BEHAVIORAL

Standard CBSM

The meetings will give facts on stress, coping with difficult events, managing anger, social support and stress reactions.
