Self-Reported Symptomatology of Socially Rejected and Neglected Italian Elementary-School Children.

Tani, Franca; Schneider, Barry H.

Child Study Journal, v27 n4 p301-17 1997

Self-reports of depression, anxiety, conduct problems, and somatization were collected from 449 elementary-school children in central Italy. Peers completed sociometric nominations for play partners. Socially rejected children rated themselves as having significantly more conduct problems than other social-status groups. Sociometrically neglected subjects indicated higher levels of somatization than other groups. (EV)
