| Abstract | This study surveys secondary teachers and students in the state of Mississippi about the status of, and their attitudes toward, psychology courses. The results are compared with those of a similar survey conducted in Florida. In 1975, a four-page questionnaire was mailed to 375 schools in Mississippi. Of these, 198, or 52.8 percent, were filled out and returned. Data were collected on school, course, and class characteristics; popularity of psychology courses; course objectives, content, and methods; textbooks used; need for audiovisual instructional aids; and teacher and student characteristics. The study revealed that 17.7 percent of the Mississippi secondary schools surveyed offer psychology as a separate course of study for credit. In the Florida survey, approximately 53 percent of schools surveyed taught psychology. Ninety-one percent of the Mississippi teachers reported that they needed more audiovisual instructional resources to help them with their courses. One unexpected finding of the study is the similarity that exists between the types of psychology courses taught in the secondary schools of these two southern states. (Author/RM) |
