Marcotte, D. B.; And Others

Medical Education, 10, 2, 117-21, Mar 76

A testing of 159 first-year medical students who took a spaced sex education course (requiring student participation in a weekly lecture, film, and group discussion) showed significant changes in cognitive knowledge as well as attitudinal tolerance of others but no changes in styles of thinking. Results are related to earlier studies. (JT)
