Women and psychology. An international perspective.

This article examines the status of women in psychology internationally. Earlier research is reviewed and compared with recent findings, including a survey responded to by 40 individuals from countries around the world. Although improvements for women have been noted in many areas, problems of sexism and antifeminism still exist. The importance of comparative analyses across countries because of increasing worldwide interaction among psychologists is noted.

Engendering psychology.

Engendering psychology refers to cultivating a psychology that is sensitive to issues of gender and diversity. The increase in the number of female psychologists does not guarantee that the discipline will be responsive to those issues. This article reviews the progress made in engendering psychology by examining undergraduate textbooks and classroom instruction and looking at gender bias in both research and practice. By engendering psychology, it becomes a stronger science and profession and better serves the public interest.
