其他摘要:Sex pre-grade courses in Colombia are not common yet. Although generally it is thought that professionals have large information in the area, it is observed that the first sex course given in a Medical School of a Colombian University was dictacted in the Universidad de Caldas (Manizales) only in 1968. Five years Iater a similar course was introduced in the Medical School of the Universidad del Rosario in Bogota. The phenomenon ís not surprising since a similar sítuation occurs in other Latín American countries. The paper presents the main characteristics of a formal sex course which has been included in the psychology currículum at the Universidad Metropalitana in Barranquilla, Colombia. It ia consídered very useful for those persons interested on improving the training of the Latin American psychologist.
