Attachment and Representations of Peer Relationships.
Cassidy, Jude; And Others
Developmental Psychology, v32 n5 p892-904 Sep 1996
Three studies explored the connection between attachment and peer-related representations among children from preschool age through grade five. Found that children secure in their attachment to their parents had more positive peer feelings than did insecure children, and greater perceived rejection by both mothers and fathers was associated with greater perceived hostile peer intent.
