dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to seek researched responses to parental questions about the influence of Family Life education courses on family value systems. A comparison study was made between three classes of high school students. A treatment group (Human Relationships) received specific training in communication skills, intrapersonal and interpersonal skills. Two control groups (Gourmet Foods and Chemistry) followed subject course outlines. The results of independent one-way analysis of variance tests indicated significant differences on the pretest of value rankings between groups. When t tests were used to compare Human Relationships and one control group (Chemistry) they suggested that students who chose to participate in a Human Relationship course of study brought with them a set of values different than those who did not select such a course. Although this was only a formative study it would seem to support the current theory that high school students are responsive to and reflective of their family value system.en
