Social prominence and the heterogeneity of rejected status in late elementary school.

Abstract

The heterogeneity of peer rejection was examined as a function of social prominence in fifth grade classrooms. From an overall sample of 3,891 (1,931 girls) students, 721 youth (424 boys) were identified with rejected status. Social prominence was determined from the aggregation of peer nominations for leader, athletic, eool, and popular. Students with rejected sociometric status were classified into one of three prominence subtypes: high, medium, and low. Prominence subtypes were differentially linked to social behavior and peer affiliations. Although relatively few rejected students had high prominence, those who did tended to have higher levels of peer-assessed aggression, were more likely to be identified as bullies, had lower levels of internalizing behavior, and were less likely to be socially isolated and more likely to associate with socially prominent peers as compared to youth in other rejected status social prominence subtypes.

Razones de desagrado en las chicas de cuarto, sexto y octavo curso, en Portugal

“…Por otra parte, la mayoría de los estudios sobre las experiencias sociales entre iguales se han centrado exclusivamente en los chicos o no han considerado las diferencias entre géneros (e.g., Farmer, Hall, Leung, Estell, & Brooks, 2011). Sin embargo, las investigaciones resaltan que hay diferencias entre ellos.…”

Beziehungen zu Gleichaltrigen

“…Allerdings werden, wie wir gesehen haben, nicht alle aggressiven Kinder von ihren Peers abgelehnt, und manchmal werden sie sogar als beliebt wahrgenommen (Farmer et al 2011;Robertson et al 2010). Manche aggressiven Jugendliche bilden ein Netzwerk von aggressiven Freunden und werden von ihrer Peer-Gruppe akzeptiert (Xue und Meisels 2004), und manche vorpubertäre Jungen, die Schlägereien anfangen und in Schwierigkeiten geraten, gelten als "cool" und stehen im Zentrum ihrer Peer-Gruppe (Hoff et al 2009;Rodkin et al 2000Rodkin et al , 2006.…”

Socijalni Status I Nasilno Ponašanje Učenika Osnovne Škole – Efekti Na Akademsko Postignuće

“…Podaci o socijalnom, tj. sociometrijskom statusu prikupljeni su primenom standardnog sociometrijskog upitnika (Farmer, Hall, Leung, Estell, & Brooks, 2011;Spasenović, 2008). Upitnikom su posebno ispitane sociometrijska prihvaćenost i opažena popularnost.…”

“…S obzirom na to da ova precedura podrazumeva da se kontinuirane varijable transformišu u kategoričke, kako bi se dobile predložene kategorije, ovo je i učinjeno pre svega zato što je ista često korišćena u istraživanjima kod nas, što omogućava potencijalnu komparaciju podataka sa drugim istraživanjima te je potencijalno najinformativnija psiholozima u praksi. Međutim, kako bi se mogle uključiti u potonju multivarijantnu analizu, varijable sociometrijske i opažene popularnosti su pretvorene u dummy varijable, sa fiksiranim kategorijama Ostali i Prosečni (Farmer et al, 2011).…”
