流行目标的影响,使用3流行相关的行为和后来的流行状态进行了检查,在不同的样本314个六年级学生(176名女孩和138名男孩)在秋季(时间1)和春季(时间2)学期。受欢迎度目标和受欢迎度驱动行为的使用(例如,“我改变我的穿着方式是为了更受欢迎”)通过自我报告调查项目(时间1)进行评估。身体侵略,社会侵略(时间1),和感知的受欢迎程度(时间1和2)进行了评估同行提名。受欢迎目标与受欢迎驱动行为、社会攻击和身体攻击呈正相关。有一个显着的流行目标和流行状态之间的相互作用效应,同时使用的社会攻击在时间1,一个更高的流行目标与更大的使用社会攻击高流行的青少年。受欢迎程度目标本身并不能预测受欢迎程度状态在时间2的变化;相反,在时间1更多地使用社会攻击与最初高受欢迎程度的青少年有高受欢迎程度目标和最初低受欢迎程度的青少年有低受欢迎程度目标的较高时间2受欢迎程度状态相关。一个类似的3向交互作用的影响被发现的身体侵略。结果表明,青少年的受欢迎目标可能有助于我们更好地理解同伴社交网络中攻击性和受欢迎驱动行为的功能。
The effect of popularity goal on the use of 3 popularity-related behaviors and later popularity status was examined in a diverse sample of 314 6th-grade students (176 girls and 138 boys) in both fall (Time 1) and spring (Time 2) semesters. Popularity goal and the use of popularity-driven behaviors (e.g., "I change the way I dress in order to be more popular") were assessed by self-report survey items (Time 1). Physical aggression, social aggression (Time 1), and perceived popularity (Times 1 and 2) were assessed by peer nominations. Popularity goal was positively associated with popularity-driven behaviors, social aggression, and physical aggression. There was a significant interaction effect between popularity goal and popularity status on the use of concurrent social aggression at Time 1; a higher popularity goal was associated with greater usage of social aggression for high-popular adolescents. Popularity goal alone did not predict popularity status change at Time 2; rather, greater use of social aggression at Time 1 was associated with higher Time 2 popularity status for initially high-popular adolescents who had a high-popularity goal and for initially low-popular adolescents who had a low-popularity goal. A similar 3-way interaction effect was found for physical aggression. Results suggest that the adolescents' goal for popularity may help us better understand the functions of aggressive and popularity-driven behaviors in peer social networks.
