Compares two accredited marriage and family therapy programs: one includes a separate course on gender, and the other integrates gender through the curriculum. Results indicate that students from the integrated program view their peers as incorporating gender ideas in therapy to a significantly greater extent. Students from the program that has a gender course leaned more toward feminist concepts. (Contains 18 references and 1 table.) (Author/GCP)
