This reaction addresses the Major Contribution related to multicultural research in counseling psychology. Although the three articles composing the Major Contribution have different foci and may be viewed independently, an implicit proposal inherent within each is the call to move beyond complacency to commitment, a phrase devised by Carter, Akinsulure-Smith, Smailes, and Clauss (1998) in their literature review of multicultural research in several counseling psychology journals. Carter et al. suggested that investigators address whether multiculturally focused research adds new knowledge about racial and ethnic minorities to the counseling psychology literature, thus moving the field forward (i.e., showing commitment), or simply reiterates the status quo (i.e., remains complacent). We highlight aspects of this theme that are common throughout the Major Contribution in addition to providing our critique and comments specific to each.
