The Nature of Children's Social Interactions at School.

Moore, Kathleen A.; Mellor, David J.

School Psychology International, v24 n3 p329-39 Aug 2003

This study aims to ascertain the underlying factor structure of students' social interactions on scores on the Social Interaction Questionnaire (SIQ). Two independent factors emerged from the data: social/popular and confident/studious. There were no gender differences on these factors in the current data. Confirmation of the current factor structure is necessary and a matched comparison with gifted children is recommended. (Contains 3 tables and 1 appendix.) (GCP)
