本研究旨在探討國民小學兒童的友伴關係及其相關變項,以了解影響友伴關係之形成與發展的決定因素。研究對象為臺北市西門國小四、五、六年級學生228名。研究工具包括社交測量調查表、社經地位調查表、瑞文氏非文字推理測驗、小學人格測驗和父母管敎態度測驗。調查與測驗係在平常課室情境中實施之。所得資料經統計分析後,獲致下列四項主要發現:(一)國小學童的社會適應優於個人適應。(二)國小學童的父母在「期待」一項分數偏低,顯示其對子女的期望與要求不盡合理。(三)學業成績是影響國小學童友伴關係的最重要因素,尤以五、六年級學生為然。(四)國小四、五、六年級兒童的學業成績、智力、人格適應及父母管敎態度等變項與友伴關係的複相關係數分別爲0.74、0.70和0.66,均達顯著水準,可解釋及預測社交分數總變異量的百分之四十四至五十五。
