Question 1 t
Question Type: True/False t t
Question: The journey to becoming a competent culturally sensitive counselor in working with
t t t t t t t t t t t t
diverse populations is not complex as humans have innate characteristics that are relatively
t t t t t t t t t t t t t
consistent across cultures with similar hopes and dreams that mark their humanness.
t t t t t t t t t t t t
Answer: False t
Solution: According to the authors, becoming culturally competent in working with diverse
t t t t t t t t t t t
populations is a complex interaction of many dimensions that involves broad theoretical,
t t t t t t t t t t t t
conceptual, research, and practice issues. Moreover, the journey will be filled with obstacles to
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
self-exploration, to understanding yourself as a racial/cultural being, and to understanding the
t t t t t t t t t t t t
worldview of those who differ from you in race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and other
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
sociodemographic characteristics. The subject matter in this book and course requires the reader to
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
explore biases and prejudices, a task that often evokes defensiveness and resistance.

, Question 5 t
Question Type: True/False t t
Question. The burden to become multiculturally competent rests on the trainees from dominant
t t t t t t t t t t t t
culture as in most cases they have been the ones to marginalize, stereotype, and oppress minority
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
cultures. Thus, it is the responsibility of the dominant culture to help rectify this in raising
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
awareness and also in becoming competent in working with diverse populations.
t t t t t t t t t t t
Answer: False t
Solution: Understanding multicultural counseling competence applies equally to trainees from
t t t t t t t t t
dominant and marginalized groups and to helping professionals.

Question 6 t
Question Type: Multiple Selection
t t t
Question: According to Kiselica (1999, as cited in Sue 8th edition), White psychologists avoid
t t t t t t t t t t t t t
topics of race because
t t t t
a. It may reveal their own prejudices and biases
t t t t t t t
b. They are racked with guilt over the way people of color have been treated
t t t t t t t t t t t t t
c. They are fearful of being labeled a racist or blamed for the oppression
t t t t t t t t t t t t
d. a and c only t t t
Answer: a, b, c
t t t t
Solution: Kiselica, a White psychologist who addresses his own ethnocentrism and racism,
t t t t t t t t t t t
contends that these topics (ethnocentrism and racism) are subjects that most Whites tend to avoid.
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
He adds that most shy away from discussing these issues for many reasons. He posits that Whites
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
are racked with guilt over the way people of color have been treated in our nation. Whites fear that
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
they will be accused of mistreating others, and particularly fear being called the ―R‖ word—racist.
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
Many grow uneasy whenever issues of race emerge. Whites tend to back away, change the subject,
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t
respond defensively, assert their innocence and ―color blindness,‖ and deny that they could
t t t t t t t t t t t t t
possibly be ethnocentric or racist. (Kiselica, 1999, as cited in Sue 8th edition).
