Friendship Quality as a Predictor of Young Children's Early School Adjustment.
Ladd, Gary W.; And Others
Child Development, v67 n3 p1103-18 Jun 1996

Findings were consistent with the hypothesis that the relational features of children's classroom friendships yield psychological benefits or costs that, in turn, affect children's development and adjustment.
