Description
Barry Schneider, a specialist in the theory and applications of research into childhood peer relationships, provides this introductory overview of this area of developmental psychology. He looks at childhood friendships, enemies and peer social interaction in the context of their effect on children in school, at home, and with relation to culture and gender differences. Finally, the author examines the applications of much of modern-day research through community and treatment centres designed to improve peer relationships both for groups and for the individual.
