Bi-Directional Social Status of Behaviorally Disordered and Nonhandicapped Elementary School Pupils.

Sabornie, Edward J. – Behavioral Disorders, 1987
Sociometric ratings assigned by and to partially mainstreamed behavior disordered and regular class elementary students were compared. Among results were that behavior disordered subjects, in comparison to matched nonhandicapped peers, assigned higher social rejection to their peers and received far less acceptance and more rejection from them.…

The assigned and received social status of mildly learning-disabled, mildly behaviorally disordered, and nonhandicapped high school students (n=66) was examined. The samples' social status differed significantly from a larger nonhandicapped population. Cross-categorical comparisons of assigned social status showed no significant differences,…
