Description
This article aims to describe the development of foundational competencies relevant to cultural responsiveness (CR), within the context of the International Competences for Undergraduate Psychology (ICUP) model (Nolan et al., 2025). The underlying premise of the ICUP model is that the acquisition of undergraduate-level foundational psychology competences can and should have high value in personal, work, and community contextsregardless of graduate career destination. A targeted background on CR is given, followed by brief descriptions of the International Collaboration on Undergraduate Psychology Outcomes (ICUPO) project (which created the ICUP model; International Collaboration on Undergraduate Psychology Outcomes, n.d.) and of the CR competences themselves. Then, procedural aspects of the ICUPO project relevant to CR are described, followed by quantitative and qualitative approaches to exploring the CR of the diverse ICUPO Committee members. The findings are discussed in terms of implications for (a) psychology educatorsin particular, they need to possess the capacity to be culturally responsive in order to be able to support students in acquiring or improving their own CR; (b) psychology education leaders undertaking undergraduate curricular renewal; and (c) the sustainable future of the discipline of psychology. 2025 American Psychological Association
