Key Performance Indicator Assignment: Ethnographic Interview Paper PYCL 632 Required KPI Assignment: Ethnographic Interview Paper (20 points) For the ethnographic interview students are asked to interview a person who is culturally different from you (e.g., age, race/ethnic background, socioeconomic and/or occupational status, ability, etc.). The interview will be conducted in a specific format. Students are to prepare a set of questions that would fall under the broad content areas stated below prior to meeting with the interviewee. During the interview, keep notes that will be useful in writing the final 7 to 10-page paper about the interviewing experience. The paper must be written in APA style and format (i.e., title page, abstract, etc.) and have at least 5 scholarly sources (no older than 10 years) to support your writing. Scholarly sources are journals and books, no websites or brochures. The following broad content areas must be addressed during the interview. In writing your paper, please organize it using these broad content areas as major headings and using the topics of your interview questions as sub-headings under these areas. Do not include the actual interview questions. The broad content areas to cover are: 1. Demographic information of the interviewee (e.g., age, gender, SES, ethnicity, etc.) 2. Background (e.g., place of birth, childhood and experiences growing up, education, work, marriage, children, religion, etc.) 3. Cultural identity [e.g., with which culture interviewee identifies, what are the characteristics of his/her culture, norms, worldview (from the perspective of your interviewee); when and why cultural identity became important - or not] 4. Positive and damaging lived experiences from belonging to this group (from the interviewee’s point of view, including stereotypes, cultural pride, etc.) 5. Benefits and barriers of belonging to this group in relation to the dominant culture. 6. Other (areas and questions that student interviewer may deem important to cover). In writing the final paper, in addition to summarizing the information gathered during the interview by addressing the broad content areas above, reflect on the following 4 areas and create headings in the paper to address them. Also don’t forget to add a formal introduction and conclusion to the final paper. 1. Reflect on what you learned as a result of interviewing this individual. Specifically, what are the differences in acculturation and values between you (the counselor) and the interviewee (the client)? 2. Reflect on your own biases, prejudices, and racist attitudes existing before the interview and how they might have or have not changed as a result of interviewing this individual. What challenges would you face in counseling this individual? In answering this prompt, use the two assigned readings (Lee et al. (2020) article titled “Toward a culturally humble practice: Critical Consciousness as an antecedent” and Ratts et al; (2015) MSJCCs document) to frame your answer by reflecting and questioning the systemic dynamics (i.e., institutional racism) and ecologies (i.e., humans interacting with their environment/community) that have an influence in the life of the interviewed person and your own. 3. Discuss your plan to advocate for and support this individual/group of individuals given what you learned about the interviewee’s challenges, damaging experiences, and limitations within our society. 4. Discuss specific culturally-adaptive interventions that are recommended when working with this group of individuals (support this with scholarly findings in the literature). A rubric for this assignment can be found at the end of the syllabus. Students must receive at least a 70% to receive a passing grade.
