In the first study, 551 (301 boys and 250 girls) Canadian primary school children (ages 8-11) nominated friends and liked-most classmates. In the second study, 282 (127 boys and 155 girls) US primary school…

Patrícia Gamboa; Sofia Freire; Aurízia Anica; Maria João Mogarro; Maria Fátima Moreira; Francisco Vaz da Silva – International Journal of Inclusive Education, 2024
One argument for the inclusion of children with special education needs (SEN) is that they will benefit from the interactions and relationships with their typically developing peers. However, students with SEN tend to be more rejected than their non-SEN peers. Considering the negative consequences of peer rejection on socioemotional development…

Correia, Stephanie; Brendgen, Mara; Vitaro, Frank – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Socialization among aggressive friends is believed to play a critical role in the development of aggressive behavior. This study examined the moderating effect of norm salience in the classroom on the association between reciprocal friends' and children's own physical, relational, and general aggression. A total of 713 children (M = 10.32 years,…

Eggum, Natalie D.; Zhang, Linlin; An, Danming; Xu, Jingyi; Clifford, Brandon N.; Costa, Megan – Journal of Early Adolescence, 2022
We investigated how 5th-8th graders' self- and peer-identified withdrawal motivations predicted peer-reported peer relationships and aggression. Participants (N = 221; 47% male) provided self-reports and peer-nomination data (we analyzed 339 students' nominations). We hypothesized shyness, unsociability, and avoidance would predict low peer liking…

Although a number of social--cognitive and contextual correlates of defending against bullying have been identified, research on the personality traits associated with defending have yielded weak and inconsistent results. The current study provided a novel examination as to whether a tendency toward social withdrawal is associated with less…

Xu, Jianjie; Troop-Gordon, Wendy; Rudolph, Karen D. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Prior research links need for approval (NFA; the extent to which self-worth is contingent on peer approval or disapproval) to critical developmental outcomes, but little is known about how NFA develops over time or within social contexts. To address this gap, the present study used a sophisticated analytic approach (autoregressive latent…

Bass, Ellyn Charlotte; Saldarriaga, Lina Maria; Velasquez, Ana Maria; Santo, Jonathan B.; Bukowski, William M. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Social norms are vital for the functioning of adolescent peer groups; they can protect the well-being of groups and individual members, often by deterring harmful behaviors, such as aggression, through enforcement mechanisms like peer victimization; in adolescent peer groups, those who violate aggression norms are often subject to victimization.…
