Abstract
Research in Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) has recently turned to adaptation studies in diverse populations. Minoritized college students represent multiple groups within individualized contexts, therefore effective treatments for this population should reflect its diversity. An ongoing project at IMPACT lab is validating a short-form adaptation of group IPT for college students (IPC-CS) to serve this population. This poster will present the state of the literature of culturally adapted IPT, with a special focus on populations relevant to universities. It will then provide recommendations based on the literature and data collected at IMPACT for further accommodating diversity in university mental health interventions.
