Similarity of Activity Preferences among Friends: Those Who Play Together Stay Together.
Werner, Carol; Parmelee, Pat
Social Psychology Quarterly, v42 n1 p62-66 Mar 1979
Responses to attitude and activity preference surveys were compared for the degrees of real and perceived similarity within male and female undergraduate friendship pairs. Activity preference similarity was substantially greater than attitudinal similarity. Friends' attitudinal similarity was no greater than strangers'. Activity similarity was a better predictor of liking. (Author/RD)
