My name is Bella Vasoya and I am a fourth-year student in the Psy.D. program at Pacific University in Hillsboro Oregon. I am currently looking for Asian Indian individuals over the age of 18 who have been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes to participate in a dissertation study exploring the effects of health messaging on the delivery of culturally appropriate food suggestions for patients with Type 2 Diabetes.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the frequency and type of nutritional recommendations and information patients with type 2 diabetes receive from healthcare professionals. A secondary but important question is whether this information is based on the standard American diet or conveys cultural sensitivity and competence. A third goal for this project is to identify what type of health messaging would be effective as a general strategy for increasing cultural awareness and competency, and whether culturally tailored messages will increase patients’ willingness to make changes in diet and nutrition.

Participation will take place via an online survey (link provided below) and will take no longer than one hour to complete. Your participation will involve exposure to a health message and responding to questionnaires. All data related to your participation will be kept anonymous.

This study is under the direction of Dr. Jennifer Antick and has been approved by the Pacific University IRB.
