A growing body of empirical literature has substantiated that cultural humility (CH) contributes meaningfully to a variety of therapeutic processes and outcomes. However, no study has concretely described how CH is linguistically and discursively enacted within therapeutic exchanges. Using interactional sociolinguistic discourse analysis, we explored the sociolinguistic strategies along with three dimensions of CH: (a) cultural teachability, (b) lack of cultural arrogance, and (c) relational orientation. Participants included six pairs of cross-racial counseling dyads. Our analyses of the session and follow-up interview transcripts yielded a range of sociolinguistic strategies (i.e., positioning, use of reinforcement, repetition, and use of pronouns) corresponding to the CH dimensions. We discuss clinical, research, and training implications.

咨询二人组中文化谦逊的话语分析

越来越多的实证文献证实，文化谦逊 (CH) 对各种治疗过程和结果都有有意义的贡献。然而，没有研究具体描述 CH 在治疗交流中是如何在语言和话语上进行的。使用互动社会语言话语分析，我们探索了社会语言策略以及 CH 的三个维度：(a) 文化可教性，(b) 缺乏文化傲慢，和 (c) 关系取向。参与者包括六对跨种族咨询二人组。我们对会话和后续访谈记录的分析产生了一系列与 CH 维度相对应的社会语言学策略（即定位、强化的使用、重复和代词的使用）。我们讨论临床、研究和培训的意义。
