Bailey, John A.; Pierce, Keith A.

Elementary School Guidance and Counseling, 9, 3, 218-223, Mar 75

This study concerns the use of the Friendship Rating Scale, a noncompetitive instrument in which the raters establish hierarchical preferences but without forcing subjects into subordinate positions following higher rating. The FRS is an assessment device for determining the correlation between peer status and academic achievement. (Author/HMV)
