Abstract

Twenty-five introductory marriage and family textbooks were reviewed for content about black families. Texts ranged in coverage from less than one page (5 texts) to entire chapters (2 texts). Perspectives of the authors were determined with 9 texts written from a black families as culturally deviant perspective, 13 from a cultural equivalent model, 3 from mixed perspectives, and none using the black family as variant approach. Recommendations to instructors selecting texts are provided.
