New Directions for Child Development, n80 p25-53 Sum 1998
Maintains that the study of peer relations has focused heavily on children's dyadic experiences. Argues that an analysis of children's experiences at the network or group level provides an equally compelling perspective on their relations within their peer system. Shows how the dynamics of peer networks determine social experiences and influence phenomena such as delinquency. (Author)
