“…There he interacts with his teacher and his peers, and they acquire knowledge about him which may be useful in assessing his general adjustment. Previous studies have shown that both teacher ratings of the general adjustment of the child and peer evaluations of the child's position in the classroom social structure are useful in the mental health screening of school children (Bower, 1960;Neubauer and Beller, 1958;FitzSimons, 1958;Rogers, 1942;Bowman, 1956;Ullmann, 1952;Bonney, 1955;Cannon, 1955;Fine, et al, 1955;Phillips and DeValt, 1955;Saterlee, 1955;and Kuhler and Collister, 1952). In this study, the aim was to examine the relationships of these adjustment measures to mothers' reports of behavior symptoms in their children and to mothers' attitudes toward their children's behavior.…”

This study tests the general hypothesis that academic performance is related to extremes in peer choice (high acceptance, high rejection, and neglect) of junior and senior high school students. The 3,917 students of 7 junior and senior high schools were tested sociometrically to measure peer choice. Academic performance of individuals who were highly accepted, highly rejected, neglected, and within a control group was studied. The findings support the hypothesis that academic performance is related to extremes in peer choice.

The investigator previously reported (Muma, 1965) that academic achievement was related to extremes in peer evaluation (high acceptance, high rejection, and neglect). The present study supplements the previous one in that it deals with the same hypothesis and the same student population (3,917 students from 7 junior and senior high schools) but differs in that the previous study was based on achievement in academic classes, whereas the present study deals with achievement in performance classes. The present findings support the hypothesis that achievement in performance classes is related to extremes in peer choice but not in the same manner as was previously reported for achievement in academic classes.
