Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 1993.

This dissertation addresses three issues about social development and social relationships: self-perceptions and how they may be interpreted, cross-national generality of methods and findings on social groups, and differences yielded by different sociometric methods that purportedly measure the same construct(s).Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation addresses three issues about social development and social relationships: self-perceptions and how they may be interpreted, cross-national generality of methods and findings on social groups, and differences yielded by different sociometric methods that purportedly measure the same construct(s).
520 $a Subjects were 305 fourth and seventh grade Chinese children in Hong Kong. They were asked to rate their own social and academic competence by filling out a 22-item questionnaire, report the social group they belonged to, and report other social groups in their grade. The sociometric status of each subject was determined by peer preference nominations.
520 $a Subjects' self-ratings of competence were compared with the same ratings made by their teachers. Male subjects tended to rate themselves more favorably than did their teachers. A comparison was also made between a subject's self-report of his or her social group and the same group as reported by peers. In self reports subjects tended to omit group mates who were less competent, and include competent people who were not actually group members. These results show a self-enhancing bias in the self-perceptions of children.
520 $a Some results of studies of social groups in the United States were replicated in this sample of Chinese children. Children in the same group were usually in the same classroom, of the same gender, and had the same level of competence.
520 $a The sociometric status of each subject was compared with his or her centrality in the social network determined by the Social Cognitive Map (Cairns, Gariepy and Kindermann, 1991). In general, a high correspondence was found. "Popular" children tended to play central roles in the social network, while "rejected" and "neglected" children tended to be more peripheral.
520 $a Variations were found in the social relationships of "rejected" children. A significant number of sociometrically-defined "rejected" children maintained membership in a group, and a pattern analysis demonstrated that the type of social relationships they formed with other children in the classroom was related to their behavioral characteristics. Relationships between these results and relevant past studies are discussed.
