Examined subtypes
of "popular" among 452 fourth- through sixth-grade boys.
Found that peers perceived popular-prosocial boys as cool, athletic,
leaders, cooperative, studious, not shy, and nonaggressive. They
perceived popular-antisocial boys as cool, athletic, and antisocial.
Findings suggested that highly aggressive boys can be among the
most popular and socially connected in elementary classrooms. (Author/KB)
