Analysis of Risk to Children Participating in a Sociometric Task.

Iverson, Annette M.; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v33 n1 p104-12 Jan 1997

Examined fourth and fifth graders' reactions to completing group-administered, positive and negative peer nomination techniques. Found that no child reported having hurt feelings or knowing of anyone else having hurt feelings. Determined that the condition of minimal risk of harm, harm not greater than children might encounter in daily life, was not breached. (MOK)
