Faith and Behavior: Religion in Introductory Psychology Texts of the 1950s and 1970s.
Spilka, Bernard; And Others
Teaching of Psychology, v8 n3 p158-60 Oct 1981
Forty introductory psychology texts from the 1950s and 160 texts from the 1970s were compared for their inclusion of information on religion, and then evaluated for the objectivity of their treatment of the subject. Results showed no systematic presentation of the subject and increasingly neutral references to religion. (AM)
