modeling procedures ...
The Structure of Ethnic Identity of Young Adolescents from Diverse Ethnocultural Groups
Tập 19 Số 3 - Trang 301-322 - 1999
The purpose for this study was to examine the structure and construct validity
of a measure of ethnic identity among young adolescents from diverse ethnic
groups. Students in sixth, seventh, and eighth grades (N = 5,423) from diverse
ethnic groups completed the Multigroup Ethnic Identity Measure (MEIM), measures
of psychological well-being and a measure of salience of ethnicity. Factor

Sociometric Popularity and Peer-Perceived Popularity
Tập 18 Số 2 - Trang 125-144 - 1998
Sociometric popularity is computed based on peer liking and dislike. The
relation between sociometric popularity and perceived popularity, based on peer
identification of school associates considered popular, was investigated in a
sample of 727 middle school students (7th and 8th grades). Most sociometrically
popular students were not high on perceived popularity. Most students high on
perceived p...
Differences between Elementary and Middle School Teachers and Students: A Goal Theory Approach
Tập 15 Số 1 - Trang 90-113 - 1995
The early adolescent years are characterized by a negative shift in motivational
orientation for a number of children. It has been suggested that this change is
related to differences between the learning environments in elementary and
middle level schools. In particular, some goal theorists have suggested that
middle level schools stress performance goals more and task goals less than do
elementa...
Relational and Physical Aggression, Prosocial Behavior, and Peer Relations

In this 3-year prospective study (N = 458) spanning a transition to middle
school, bidirectional associations between children’s relations with schoolmates
(social preference andimpact)and behaviors (physical and relational aggression,
prosocial behavior) were examined using structural equation modeling. Gender
moderation of all estimated paths was examined. There was no gender difference
in relat...
Stability and Change in Peer Relationships During the Transition to Middle-Level School
Tập 22 Số 2 - Trang 117-142 - 2002
In this short-term longitudinal study, Canadian young adolescents’ peer
relationships were assessed as students moved from Grade 6 in small elementary
schools to Grade 7 in a middle-level school offering Grades 7 through 12.
Sociometric nominations were conducted in May of Grade 6, monthly during the
fall term, and in May of Grade 7. Peer rejection was stable; peer acceptance was
less stable durin...
Uplifts, Hassles, and Adaptational Outcomes in Early Adolescents
Tập 7 Số 4 - Trang 371-394 - 1987
The relationship of daily uplifts and hassles to adaptational outcomes has
gained increasing attention in recent years. However, investigators have focused
considerably more on hassles than uplifts. In an attempt to rectify this trend,
the present study examines the relationship of uplifts and hassles to anxiety,
depression, distress, self-restraint, perceived sup-port from friends, perceived
soci...
Interpersonal Relationships, Emotional Distress, and Prosocial Behavior in Middle School
Tập 19 Số 1 - Trang 114-125 - 1999
Investigated in this study was the contribution of peer acceptance, perceived
support from peers, and family cohesion to prosocial behavior in young
adolescents. Based on theories of peer socialization, it was hypothesized that
being accepted by peers would have a direct relation to prosocial behavior. In
addition, emotional distress was examined as a possible mediator between
adolescents’ percept...
Adolescents' Perceptions of Privacy Invasion in Reaction to Parental Solicitation and Control
Tập 28 Số 4 - Trang 583-608 - 2008
Following suggestions from prior research, this 2-wave longitudinal study
examined whether parental solicitation and control influenced adolescents' later
perceptions of privacy invasion. Data from 307 Dutch adolescents were tested
with structural equation modeling (SEM). Differences in adolescents' invasion
perceptions were examined in terms of gender and the quality of interactions
with parents....
Early Adolescent Risk Behavior Outcomes of Childhood Externalizing Behavioral Trajectories
Tập 31 Số 2 - Trang 234-257 - 2011
Little is known about the early childhood indicators of adolescent risk. The
link between trajectories of externalizing behavioral problems and early
adolescent risk behavior was examined in a longitudinal sample of 875 child
participants in the LONGSCAN studies. Five trajectory groups of children defined
by externalizing behavior problems were identified: Low, Low-Medium, Moderate,
Increasing-Hig...
