Self-Reflection 1: Hays ADDRESSING Model

Self-Reflection: Hays ADDRESSING Model

Introduction

All of us have multifaceted cultural identities, so you are likely to have experienced situations where you were in the cultural majority as well as others where you were in the cultural minority. This assignment will help you consider the influence of your cultural memberships on your ability to work professionally with people of similar cultural backgrounds, as well as with people from different cultural backgrounds. All clinicians have biases. Failure to recognize these biases creates harm. It takes more strength to acknowledge your biases than to argue that you have none.

Dr. Pamela Hays developed the ADDRESSING model to help psychologists recognize 10 major factors of cultural difference that are common in the United States: Age (and generational influences), Developmental and acquired Disabilities, Religion and spiritual identity, Ethnicity and racial identity, Socioeconomic status, Sexual orientation, Indigenous heritage, National origin, and Gender. Note that this list is not comprehensive; there are thousands of different cultural identities in our country. The ADDRESSING model just sums up the 10 most common points of cultural difference.

Partially Completed Example
Cultural Group (according to the ADDRESSING model)How You IdentifyImplications for your work. Consider where you have privilege, and what groups might be easy or difficult to work with.
A. Age (and generational influences).Middle age (40s).I would have difficulty working with children and young adults (15–20). I realize I’m too verbal in my therapy approach, and appreciate clients who can have discussions involving complex concepts.
D. Disability (developmental).
D. Disability (acquired).
R. Religion and spiritual identity.
E. Ethnicity and racial identity.
S. Socioeconomic status.
S. Sexual orientation.GayI know I have biases against people who follow a strict and literal interpretation of the scriptures.
I. Indigenous heritage.
N. National origin.
G. Gender.MaleI would have problems working with those who follow strict social sex roles. (Only men can do men things and only women can do women things). I find gender and social sex roles much more fluid.
