Muni, Anita Kumari; Rath, Arundhati; Choudhury, Aparajita
Early Child Development and Care, v132 p105-14 May 1997
Explored relationship between family resources and social competence of 300 adolescents. Found that parental education, occupation, and family income were related to positive peer and teacher-related social competence among advantaged adolescents. Negative responses and outside family support were positively related to disadvantaged adolescents' higher self-related competence. (Author/KB)
