Article Abstract
The aim of this study is to examine the components of multicultural competence among pre-service teacher students in Thailand and to develop and assess the reliability of a model of multicultural competence for pre-service teacher students in Thailand. Multistage stratified random sampling was utilized to recruit 600 pre-service teacher students from undergraduate education programs at the Faculty of Education in Thailand. Data were collected through self-report questionnaires. The data analysis employed descriptive statistics and second-order confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The findings indicate that multicultural competence among pre-service teacher students comprises three components: cultural awareness, cultural knowledge, and personal skills. Furthermore, this study identified that the model of multicultural competence among pre-service teacher students demonstrated good fit indices for the modified model (χ = 30.902, df = 21, -value = 0.0753, χ/df = 1.472; root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) = 0.028; standardized root means square residual (SRMR) = 0.013; Tucker-Lewis index (TLI) = 0.996; comparative fit index (CFI) = 0.999). Based on these findings, effective teaching in diverse environments necessitates a thorough understanding of multicultural competence.

Purpose: This paper aims to introduce an adapted, culturally competent leadership conceptual framework for indigenous health care, aiming to improve health access and address gaps in Western-centric leadership models.
Design/methodology/approach: A systematic literature review and thematic analysis of 32 peer-reviewed articles were conducted, guided by transformational and cultural sensitivity frameworks to adapt a conceptual framework to support health access in indigenous communities.
Findings: The adapted indigenous leadership conceptual framework (AILCF) includes 11 interrelated leadership themes - visionary leadership, supportive and empathetic leadership, adaptive leadership, integrity and ethical leadership, communicative leadership, courageous leadership, cultural competence, community engagement and relationship-building, historical trauma and healing, structural change and leadership in crisis - synthesized through transformational and culturally sensitive leadership lenses to support equitable health access and culturally grounded leadership in indigenous health-care settings.
