Abstract
An education program was developed and evaluated to improve college students 'understanding on gender differences in dating relationships. This program was designed based on literature review and a survey of students' preference on subjects concerned with dating and premarital education. The program consisted of three sessions which were ‘Are men & women different\ulcorner’, ‘How are they different\ulcorner’, and ‘How can we cope with the differences\ulcorner’. Questionnaires and pre/post interviews were adopted for evaluation of the program. Participants reported that they were satisfied with the structure of the program as well as the teaching methods and materials. The program was effective in recognizing the existence of gender differences, understanding gender differences, and improving skills to maintain intimacy in dating relationships.
