N2  - Individual Psychology has served as the foundation for numerous parent training programs (Lindquist & Watkins, 2014; Nelsen, 2006; Popkin, 2014). The teachings and effectiveness of this theory are well documented throughout the literature. However, with the recent growth of cultural psychology, the American Psychological Association's urge for emphasizing cultural sensitivity in training and education (American Psychological Association, 2003), and with the rise of immigration, questions have arisen as to whether or not Adlerian parent training programs are prepared to meet these cultural demands. Therefore, in this paper the authors provide tentative answers to this inquiry and also address questions that emerge in any discussion of cultural sensitivity. In particular, we review empirical studies on the effects of authoritative parenting on ethnic minorities. This is followed by a critical thinking discussion on cultural diversity, related issues that may typically appear, and implications for future parenting programs.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
