These figures were not weighted by marital status. Tabulations by Gebhard (McWhirter 1990) on Kinsey's basic sample of noninstitutionalized males and females indicated that '13.95% of males and 4.25% of females, or a combined average of 9.13%' had had either 'extensive' or 'more than incidental' homosexual experience. 3.7% of females had extensive homosexual experience. They found 9.9% of the males in the College Sample had extensive homosexual experience. In The Kinsey Data, Gebhard and Johnson (1979) reexamined the amount of homosexual experience in Kinsey's basic sample of noninstitutionalized males and females. His refined figures showed that between one-quarter and one-third of adult white males with college education had had an 'overt homosexual experience since puberty' (mostly in the adolescent years) weighting by marital status, he estimated that 4% of the white college-educated males and between 1-2% (and closer to 1%) of white females were predominantly or exclusively homosexual. In the Final Report and Background Papers of the National Institute of Mental Health's Task Force on Homosexuality (Gebhard 1972), Gebhard reanalyzed Kinsey's data to eliminate sample bias. Kinsey devised a classification scheme to measure sexual orientation.4% of males and 1-3% of females had been exclusively homosexual after the onset of adolescence up to the time of the interview.For females, Kinsey reported a range of 2-6% for more or less exclusively homosexual experience/response. 10% of males were more or less exclusively homosexual and 8% of males were exclusively homosexual for at least three years between the ages of 16 and 55.37% of males and 13% of females had at least some overt homosexual experience to orgasm.Sexual Behavior in the Human Male (1948) and Sexual Behavior in the Human Female (1953) reported that: Kinsey's data came from in-depth, face-to-face interviews (with 5300 white males and 5940 white females providing almost all of the data). Paul Gebhard (Gebhard 1979), a Kinsey research associate and later director of the Institute, described Kinsey's sampling method as 'quota sampling accompanied by opportunistic collection' (p. The original male sample included institutionalized men. Kinsey's samples are best for younger adults, particularly the college-educated they are poorest for minorities and those from lower socioeconomic and educational levels.
