Research on adult personal-social networks has contributed greatly
to an understanding of mental health, illness, and responses to
stress. Fueled by this successful research and a growing concern
for today's youth, the contributors to this volume have conducted
investigations into the functioning and structures of the social
networks of toddlers, school-age children, adolescents, and college
students. The editors of this volume move beyond vague
generalizations about characteristic and behavior acquisition
through socialization in childhood by applying a longitudinal
perspective to the sampling of child, adolescent, and young-adult
network research. Social Networks of Children, Adolescents, and
College Students unites several major empirical studies of
children's social networks, investigating the acquisition of
specific behaviors from particular groups of individuals under
certain conditions. Topics covered include: * the effects of social
networks on child development and disorder * the relationship
between social networks and coping with stress the role of friends
or groups in positive socialization * Of special interest to
practitioners, researchers, and advanced students are: *
comparative data on children from other cultural groups and
non-mainstream American youths descriptions and evaluations of
methodologies * introductory materials by the editors commenting on
the field and the research extensive bibliographies
