From the Inside Flap

Peer Relationships In Child Development Friendships that are supportive Friendships that are not Early popularity at school Rejection by peers Each has a profound impact on children s social, educational, and personality development. The past decade has seen tremendous growth in general research on the characteristics of childhood and adolescent peer relationships. But, what do we know about the contributions of peer relationships, and how can we learn more about the role of peers in children s development? Peer Relationships in Child Development presents the stimulating answers of today s leading researchers and developmental psychologists in the field. Each chapter is written by professionals involved in an active research program on peer relationships. These experts directly assess the influence that peer relationships exert on personality social behavior, and cognition. In this important work, they focus on:

  • Foundations, basic processes and the implications of friendships for psychological development, for example, the consequences of conflict between peers.
  • Interplay of family (or parent–child) relationships and peer relationships.
  • The significance of peer relationships and peer influence in the school context.
  • The use of peer interactions as a therapeutic technique in working with emotionally disturbed or socially maladjusted children.
Throughout the book, there is a balance between examining the positive effects of friendship on such processes as the learning of social skills, and potential negative effects as in peer pressure toward undesirable behavior. Peer Relationships in Child Development will be of great interest to professionals in several fields. For educational and school psychologists, the section oh peer relationships at school will link questions about peer influences on school achievement and academic adjustment to theories and research on psychological development. For those concerned with family clinical, and counsel psychology the variety and the depth of research offered here will be a tremendous help in their own efforts to understand and work with complex child and adolescent peer relationships.
