cultural sensitivity
definition: Cultural sensitivity refers to the process by which health research and intervention respond to the cultural belief systems, behaviors, experiences, and social context of populations. Culturally sensitive approaches acknowledge that conceptualizing determinants of health behaviors and outcomes, conducting research, and creating interventions to reduce disease risks may not rely on universally applied predictors, methods, or settings.
