同伴关系与社会行为：社会测量学分类方法在中国儿童中的适用性研究

PEER RELATIONSHIPS: AN EXAMINATION OF SOCIOMETRIC STATUS AND SOCIO-EMOTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS

本研究应用科威和道吉（１９８３）的社会测量学分类方法，对具有不同同伴关系的儿童的行为特征进行了考察、结果表明，与西方心理学文献一致，受欢迎儿童具有较强的社会能力和积极的行为品质，被拒绝儿童倾向于具有攻击性、破坏性和学习困难。此外，被忽略儿童容易表现羞怯与焦虑行为，缺乏同伴之间的亲密感，而有争议儿童则具有积极和消极行为品质“两重性”。这一研究提供了社会测量学分类方法在中国文化中的有效性的初步证据。

A large sample of children in Shanghai, aged10 and 12,participated in this study. Information onsocial and school functioning, including sociometricstatus, sociability and school-related competence,leadership ,aggression-disruption, and shynesssocial anxiety, was collected from peers, teachers andschool administrative files, In addition, self-reportdata on loneliness and social dissatisfaction,depression, peer integration and peer intimacy were obtained. It was found that the behavioral profiles ofthe popular, rejected, neglected and controversialchildren in China were similar to those described inWestern literature.The findings provide initial evidence on the validity of the sociometric classificationof Chinese children.
