We have studied the one-loop effects in the Weinberg-Salam theory in the natural renormalization scheme which we have generalized to the case of an arbitrary unitary mixing of the fermion fields. We have discussed in detail the problems which are connected with carrying out the renormalization program in the Weinberg-Salam theory. We have calculated the masses of the W and Z bosons. We present a description of the finite renormalizations which relate to each other the three definitions of the Weinberg parameter sin/sup 2/theta/sub W/.
