Contemporary Feminism for Gender Researchers: Not Just “Our Bodies, Our Cells”
IV. Commentary on ‘The Third Voice: Writing Case-notes’
Institutional Affiliation and Satisfaction Among Feminist Professors; Is There an Advantage to Women's Colleges
Do feminist professors of psychology who teach at women's colleges derive more satisfaction from their academic lives than feminist professors who teach at coed colleges or at (coed) universities? If one assumes that gynocentric environments are more pleasing to feminists, the answer should be “yes.” Using questionnaire and interview data from 76 self-identified feminist psychology professors, we tested the expectation that feminist women teachin…
Feminist Interventions: Accountability Beyond Symptom Reduction
Feminist interventions to facilitate women's psychological well-being are forging new pathways to achieving the goals of the Decade of Behavior. In emphasizing the complex interplay between internal and external factors in women's lives, feminist interventions are designed to promote women's safety health, positive life styles, personal strength, competence, and resilience. In contrast, prevailing medical models locate the problem within the woma…
Resilience in Low-Income, Employed, African American Women
This study focuses on resilience in poor women and asks the question: In the face of a lifetime of adversity, stress, and poverty, what are the factors that enable some poor women to lead positive and productive lives? Fifty low-income, urban, African American women were interviewed, and factors that contribute to their resilience were explored. Specifically, we examined the influence of supportive and problematic social ties, downward social com…
Feminism in Psychology: Revolution or Evolution
This article discusses the major contributions of feminism to the discipline of psychology in the areas of theory, research, and practice. Among the most important of these innovations are the introduction of the psychology of girls and women as legitimate topics of study; naming and exploring important issues in the lives of women; reconstructing research methods and priorities to study women in the context of their lived experiences; integratin…
Educating About Women and Gender: Cognitive, Personal, and Professional Outcomes
This study assesses the multiple effects of planned exposure to gender and women's issues on graduate student development. Students in a gender-aware Counseling Psychology program ( n = 63) were compared to those in two other graduate psychology programs (total n = 38) on five scales that measured exposure to gender issues, social constructivist views, feminist identity development, performance self-esteem, and endorsement of feminist therapy goa…
Feminism as Life Raft
We looked at relationships between academic women's feminist identity and their perceptions of discrimination. From a sample of self-labeled feminist professors of psychology who had participated in the Feminist Teaching Project, we examined previously transcribed interviews and also collected new, auxiliary information. We expected to find that our respondents would view feminism as both provoking discrimination and helping them cope with discri…
Opening Doors to Feminist Research
Currently, both controversy and consensus exist concerning the conceptualization and implementation of feminist research. In this article I trace the rise of feminist research in the context of the multiple meanings of a gendered and feminist psychology. I then summarize examples of recent research studies that demonstrate some of the many ways in which feminist psychology is contributing to our understandings of human behavior. The challenge to …
Reinventing Analogue Methods For Research With Women
This article was prompted by the current popularity and acceptance of analogue methods in gender-related research. The use of analogues in research with women is examined here for both its strengths and limitations. We acknowledge the distinctive advantages of analogue methods in revealing the nature, extent, and potential outcomes of gender bias and stereotyping of all minority status groups. While recognizing that any method can be feminist, we…
Transforming Theory And Research With Women: Themes and Variations
We look at some of the ways in which feminist theorists and researchers apply new insights to established topics in psychology, as they explore the landscape of the unknown and unspoken in the lives of girls and women. The articles in this special issue present research and reflections by a group of feminist scholars, some of us from the editorial board of the Psychology of Women Quarterly and others from the larger academic community. Each contr…
From Practice to Proficiency: The Graduate Student Advisory Board
Gender in Close Relationships: Public Policy vs. Personal Prerogative
The interface of research on gender in close relationships with applications to social issues is considered within the context of the dialectic between public policy and private transactions. The distinctions between public and private are discussed in terms of three dimensions proposed by Benn and Gaus (1983): access, agents, and interest. Each of these dimensions may play a role in determining how interpretations of public and private translate…
Feminist Counseling/Therapy for the 21st Century
Progress and Prospect
At the start of the second year with a new Editorial Board, it seems timely to review and examine the progress of the journal in meeting its goals and in serving the needs of constituents. We define constituency within a broad context, including Division 35 members, general readership, aspiring authors and researchers, and the discipline at large, which may influence, and be influenced by, what appears between the covers of the Psychology of Wome…

Generalization of Conflict and Conflict Tolerance
The construct of ‘conflict tolerance’ is interpreted as a special case of the generalization of conflict, such that previous conflict experiences are viewed as exerting an effect on response to present conflicts. The principal concern here was to determine the roles of previous weak, strong and varied conflict training on performance in subsequent similar strong and weak conflict situations. In two experiments, the major findings were as follows.…
