Abstract

Abstract Sexological worldview is the lens through which someone sees and makes meaning of the sexual world around them. The Developmental Model of Intercultural Sensitivity (DMIS) may be a useful tool in operationalizing cultural humility and responsiveness to sexological differences. This research explored whether the DMIS explains the stages of someone’s sexological worldview development across a continuum of dualist to relativist perspectives and ways of interacting with others who are similar or different. The lead author interviewed 30 sexuality professionals and students in the US and found that the participants’ sexological worldview development could be explained using the DMIS framework. We discuss the use of the DMIS for the future design of Sexuality Attitudes Reassessment (SAR) programs, a type of training required in the credentialing of sexologists, and the measurement of SAR training outcomes as they pertain to cultural humility and responsiveness. Future research should focus on the development of an empirical instrument to measure sexological worldview development and SAR educators should create new, or align existing, training activities to match their SAR participants’ worldview development.

跨文化敏感性发展模型对性别世界观发展的解释

性学世界观是人们观察和理解周围性世界的视角。跨文化敏感性的发展模型(DMIS)可能是一个有用的工具，在操作文化谦卑和性学差异的反应。这项研究探讨了DMIS是否解释了一个人的性学世界观发展的各个阶段，从二元主义到相对主义的观点，以及与相似或不同的人互动的方式。主要作者在美国采访了30名性学专业人士和学生，发现参与者的性学世界观发展可以用DMIS框架来解释。我们讨论了DMIS在性态度再评估(SAR)项目的未来设计中的使用，这是性学家资格认证所需的一种培训，以及SAR培训结果的测量，因为它们与文化谦逊和反应性有关。未来的研究应侧重于开发一种测量性学世界观发展的实证工具，特别行政区教育工作者应创造新的或调整现有的培训活动，以适应其特别行政区参与者的世界观发展。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
