Abstract | The papers in this collection explore the implications of Title IX in terms of educational equity, analyze sex-related differences between males and females, and outline some strategies for equality in physical education and athletics. Marjorie Blaufarb discusses the physical and psychological inequities that exist in the traditional approach to physical education which provides for separate programs for boys and girls. Dorothy Harris reviews the state of research on physiological sex differences and emphasizes the fact that observed differences are mediated by physical fitness levels rather than by sex. A. Mae Timer examines the requirements of Title IX regulations for physical education and athletics and suggests ways for developing supportive measures necessary to make compliance meaningful. Her paper holds that an understanding of the legal aspects of Title IX and well designed strategies for its implementation may help us to reevaluate current practices and to ascertain whether they contribute to the perpetuation of sex discrimination.
