Deskripsi

This study explores gender differences in two dimensions of socialstatus in the group, social preference and perceived popularity in a sample of 274 adolescents from 11 classes of 3 and 4 of the ESO (119 boys, 155 girls) from two schools in the province of Seville. First, put on the two dimensions of status with various personal attributes, and secondly, we analyze gender differences associated with the relational structure. The results show correlation patterns that differentiate the social preference and popularity, as well as different correlational patterns by gender for each of the dimensions analyzed.
