Changes in attitudes toward homosexuality in college students: implementation of a gay men and lesbian peer panel.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the implementation of a gay men and lesbian peer panel as an educational strategy in changing homophobic attitudes among 190 college students. The students were administered a modified version of the Attitudes Toward Homosexuality Scale before and after the intervention. Results indicated a significant difference between pre- and posttest scores. Men had more negative attitudes toward homosexuals than did women both before and after intervention. Suggestions for counselors, student development professionals, and other human service professionals pertaining to the delivery and format of the intervention are discussed.
