Friendship Choices and Self-Image: An Investigation of Group Cohesiveness and Perceptions of Remedial Children in a Comprehensive School.
Pomeroy, Richard; Johnson, Trevor
Educational Review, v35 n1 p51-58 Feb 1983
A choice of friends questionnaire and interviews were used to examine how pupils of similar ability perceived themselves in relation to their peers and to the school system. While the formation of group cohesiveness among remedial children was identified, this did not correlate with antischool values and negative self-images. (Author/SK)
