However, there has been no commensurate growth in research on the mental health needs of this population. Previous conceptual studies have suggested that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is compatible with traditional Asian cultural values as well as in line with the preferences and expectations for psychotherapy among Asian American individuals. Unfortunately, there is a dearth of empirical research that examines the effectiveness of CBT for Asian American patients who are receiving psychological treatment. Therefore, this study examines the influence of CBT on psychological symptom severity levels of depression, anxiety, psychological well-being, and quality of life, for Asian American patients who have received treatment at an acute psychiatric partial hospital.
