INVESTIGATING ATTITUDES TOWARDS SEXUALITY - 2 METHODOLOGIES

The present study compares two methods for assessing sexuality attitud es, a limited choice questionnaire and participant generated responses to problem situations. In a pre and post study, both methods showed c hanges in the expected direction, although closer examination indicate s that each method may be tapping different aspects of a person's beli ef system. Further work needs to develop a closer link between varying methodologies in order to gather more comprehensive data on the relat ionship between knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors.
