Children's Judgments of Socially Skilled Versus Socially Deficient Female Peers.

Horstman, Ann M.; Bornstein, Philip H.

Child and Family Behavior Therapy, v7 n1 p51-64 Spr 1985

Furthermore, gender apparently influenced children's sociometric and attractiveness ratings of female peers, but not social skill ratings. (KH)
