This study evaluated the effects of a teacher training program in family life and human sexuality. An attempt was made to determine the extent to which age, sex, race, marital status and years of teaching experience can be used to predict sex-related attitudes of teachers. Teachers who volunteered for a Title IV-C Teacher Training Program in Family Living and Human Sexuality were tested before and after the training program using a knowledge test and an attitude inventory. The pretest and posttest scores of the experimental teachers were compared with a control group to assess the degree of change. Results indicated the teachers who participated in the teacher training program made significant gains in sex-related knowledge. While no changes were evident in overall attitudes, the experimental teachers became more accepting of the practice of masturbation. A major finding in the study was the relationship between age and permissiveness of attitudes toward controversial issues.
本研究评估了一项关于家庭生活与人类性行为的教师培训项目的效果。研究试图确定年龄、性别、种族、婚姻状况和教学年限在多大程度上可用于预测教师与性相关的态度。自愿参加第四章C节家庭生活与人类性行为教师培训项目的教师，在培训项目前后分别接受了知识测试和态度量表测试。将实验教师的前测和后测分数与一个对照组进行比较，以评估变化程度。结果表明，参加教师培训项目的教师在与性相关的知识方面有显著提高。虽然总体态度没有明显变化，但实验教师对自慰行为的接受度更高。该研究的一个主要发现是年龄与对争议性问题态度的宽容度之间的关系。
