Evaluation of Assertive Training and Homosexual Guidance Service Groups Designed to Improve Homosexual Functioning

Russell, A.; Winkler, R.

Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 45, 1, 1-12, Feb 77

It is proposed that clinicians should develop research-based assertiveness training procedures for homosexuals that are designed to facilitate homosexual functioning. Subjects (N=27) were assigned to a behaviorally oriented assertive training group or a non-directive group run by a homosexual guidance service. Self-report measures indicated improvement over both groups. (Author)
