Abstract
137 female and 53 male heterosexual college students enrolled in a required freshman level course were surveyed to determine their attitudes toward homosexual behavior. Generally negative attitudes were expressed. Less negative attitudes were expressed by females and those expressing liberal attitudes toward other sexual behaviors. Participation in selected sexual activities and class in school were also significant correlates of attitudes toward homosexual behavior but the direction of the relationship is not clear.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
