Identity Claims and Projections: Descriptions of Self and Crowds in Secondary School.
Stone, Margaret R.; Brown, B. Bradford
New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, n84 p7-20 Sum 1999
Examined whether adolescents identify with the crowd to which they are assigned by their peers or with higher status crowds, and whether they are more likely to select the normal crowd or their peer-assigned crowd as their social-reference group. Found that specific crowds' status changes over time, and that there are age differences in adolescents' social-reference groups. (KB)
