Abstract

The present study sought to replicate and extend existing research (Hutman & Ellis, 2020; McNamara et al., 2023) on the relations among perceived clinical supervisor multicultural competency, and physical and psychological quality of life outcomes for supervisees. Utilizing a serial mediation analysis with a sample of 285 mental health supervisees, this study tested the predictive role of multicultural competency (MC) on supervisee quality of life (QoL), as mediated by the supervisor working alliance (SWA) and burnout/vigor (B/V) of the supervisee as a multivariate set, respectively. Multivariate multiple regression analysis was conducted to test the serial mediation hypotheses. Results indicated that supervisory multicultural competency predicted supervisee psychological and physical quality of life which was mediated by the supervisory working alliance and burnout/vigor, thus supporting the hypothesized serial mediation model. Theoretical and practical implications and suggestions for future research are explored.
