This review demarcates major periods of empirical activity and accomplishment (i.e. "generations") in research on children's peer relations and social competence during recent decades and identifies the investigative agendas that were dominant or ascendant during these periods. A sampling of studies that were conducted during the most recent generation of peer relations research is organized and reviewed in relation to two types of research objectives: (a) enduring agendas--aims from past research generations that have continued to serve as an impetus for empirical investigation during the 1990s--and (b) innovative agendas--newly emergent objectives that are predicated on novel conceptual issues or ongoing research controversies and deficiencies. This profile of continuity and change in investigators' research agendas provides a platform for delineating and analyzing recent empirical accomplishments in the field of peer relations research.
本综述划定了近几十年来儿童同伴关系与社会能力研究中的主要实证活动和成就阶段（即“代”），并确定了这些时期占主导或呈上升趋势的调查议程。针对最近一代同伴关系研究期间开展的一系列研究，根据两种研究目标进行了组织和综述：（a）持久议程——过去几代研究的目标，在20世纪90年代继续作为实证研究的推动力；（b）创新议程——基于新的概念问题或正在进行的研究争议及不足而新出现的目标。研究人员研究议程的这种连续性和变化概况为描绘和分析同伴关系研究领域最近的实证成就提供了一个平台。
