Much of the earlier work linked characteristics of students' personalities with their relative social standing (Blyth, 1958(Blyth, , 1960Bonney, 1943;Boyd, 1965;Cook, 1945;Evans, 1962;French & Mensh, 1948;Gerber, 1977;Gronlund, 1950Gronlund, ,1959Jennings, l943;Northway, 1954;Olson, 1949;Powell, 1948;Zeleny, 1941), and then researchers turned to analyses of small group processes within the classroom (Flecker, 1967;King, 1960;Newcomb, 1961;Pratt, 1960;Schmuck & Schmuck, 1975).
