The Relation between Behavior Problems and Peer Preference in Different Classroom Contexts.
Stormshak, Elizabeth A.; And Others
Child Development, v70 n1 p169-82 Jan-Feb 1999
Examined relationship between child behavior and peer preference from the person-group similarity and the social-skill models with 2,895 first graders. Found support for both predictive models, with the acceptability aggression and withdrawal varying across classrooms and the effects of inattentive/hyperactive behavior and prosocial behavior remaining constant in associations with peer preference across classrooms. Found gender differences. (Author/KB)
