Roysircar, Gargi; Pignatiello, Vincent
Journal of Multicultural Counseling and Development, v39 n3 p167-179 Jul 2011
A multicultural-ecological (M-Eco) method assesses multiple levels of a client's presentation, such as individual, micro-, meso-, exo-, macro-, and chronosystems. An M-Eco method is a culturally sensitive practice of Bronfenbrenner's (1995) ecological perspective that focuses on behavior's contextual and interactional nature and an individual's interactions within his or her cultural group as well as meaning making of contexts. (Contains 2 figures.)
