这项研究考察了整个学年中青少年早期最佳友谊的稳定性。七年级学生（N = 174）在学年秋季和春季参加了小组测试。参与者完成了同伴提名测量，描述了他们最好的友谊的质量、他们对最好朋友的了解，以及他们针对同伴冲突的典型冲突解决策略。大约 50% 的最佳友谊在整个学年中保持稳定。友谊质量和知识与友谊稳定性无关。然而，男孩友谊的稳定性与最小化策略呈正相关，而女孩最好的友谊的稳定性与最小化策略呈负相关，但与更多地使用消极（即对抗）策略来应对同伴冲突呈正相关。讨论结果时参考了友谊规则以及亲密关系中服从和自主的相互冲突的要求。
This study examined the stability of early adolescent best friendships across a school year Grade 7 students (N = 174) participated in group-testing sessions in the fall and spring of their school year Participants completed peer-nomination measures, described the quality of their best friendships, their knowledge of their best friend, and their typical conflict-resolution strategies in response to peer conflicts. Approximately 50% of the reciprocated best friendships remained stable across the school year Friendship quality and knowledge were unrelated to friendship stability. However, stability of boys friendships was positively correlated with minimization strategies, whereas stability of girls' best friendships was negatively correlated with minimization strategies but positively related to greater use of negative (i.e., confrontational) strategies in response to peer conflict. Results are discussed with reference to the rules of friendship and to the conflicting demands for compliance and autonomy within a close relationship.
