Conflict and Friendship Relations in Middle Childhood: Behavior in a Closed-Field Situation.
Hartup, Willard W.; And Others
Child Development, v64 n2 p445-54 Apr 1993
Examined disagreements between 9 and 10 year olds as a function of friendship status. While children played a board game, conflicts occurred more frequently among friends than among nonfriends. During conflicts with friends, girls tended to use assertions accompanied by rationales, whereas boys tended to use assertions without rationales. (MDM)
