Description
Peer nominations provide a key method for assessing relationships, social status, and interpersonal behavior. Taking an in-depth look at current practices and recent advances in peer nomination methodology, this volume presents:
a history of peer nomination methods, with a focus on the early origins of peer informant measures and the nature of Moreno?s (1934) sociometric methodology (highlighting fundamental differences from the modern sociometric procedure).
an overview of the major changes that have occurred in peer nomination research over the course of the past 2 decades, including the recent focus on popularity and relational aggression, statistical advances, logistical challenges and innovations, and the changing conventions of the nomination procedure itself.
This is the 157th volume in this Jossey-Bass series New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development. Its mission is to provide scientific and scholarly presentations on cutting edge issues and concepts in this subject area. Each volume focuses on a specific new direction or research topic and is edited by experts from that field.
