collectives that generate unique values and standards for behavior and a social structure of leaders and followers
-basis of proximity, sex, ethnicity, academic achievement, popularity, and aggression
peer acceptance
-likability
-one sided perspective on how others view you
- assess it by: social preferences (identify who they like very much) or social prominence (kids judgements of the peers most of their classmates admire)
popular children
kids that would get a lot of votes, who everyone wants to hang out/ sit with
>have good social skills: good empathy, react appropriately, well liked by peers and adults
rejected children
many negative votes (very disliked)
>no social skills

1. rejected aggressive: high rates of conflict, physical relational aggression, hyperactive, inattentive, impulsive behavior --> become the bullies

2. rejected withdrawn: passive and socially awkward. timid children overwhelmed by social anxiety, hold neg expectations for treatment by peers, and worry about being scorned and attacked --> get bullied, learned helplessness
controversial children
both positive and negative votes
neglected children
seldom mentioned neither positively or negativity
>social skills are there, just not as strong as popular kids
> proves that outgoing, gregarious personality style isn't the only path to emotional well being
