In this work, we show how the ideas in [3, pp. 6-12] can be used to give conditions under which Jordan ideals in the set of symmetric elements in an associative ring R with involution extend to associative ideals of R in a natural way. We also give conditions under which a Jordan homomorphism of the set of symmetric elements will extend to an associative homomorphism of R. Such work has been done on matrix rings with involution in [5; 6]. An abstract definition of a Jordan ring may be found in [3] as well as other background information.
