Peer Group Formation in Young Children: Perception. Final Report.
Edelman, Murray S.
This study is an attempt to integrate two theoretical approaches in child development: ethology and cognitive theory. An ethological approach suggests that children structure their social world hierarchically and are emotionally involved in perceiving and participating in interactions involving dominance. It is through this involvement that children may be getting important experience for the development of the cognitive operation of transitivity. (Author/MS)
