"This manual is for a workshop entitled ʻFreeing Ourselves: Removing Internal Barriers to Equality. ̓ It is a developmental workshop for women that uses both didactic and experimental techniques to train participants to make freer educational and career choices. The subject of the workshop is the internal psychological barriers by which, because of the socialization process, women use sex role stereotypes to impede their own educational and career development. The objective of the workshop is to train women to develop their own behavior so as to be able to cope better with the working world.
