This study examines the proposition that friend characteristics forecast changes in perceptions of relationship negativity. The participants (ages 9 to 11) were 240 pre- and young adolescents (114 boys, 126 girls) involved in 120 same-sex best friendships that were stable across a period of 4 to 12 weeks. Each friend described perceptions of negativity in their relationship. Prosocial behavior and relational aggression were assessed via peer nominations. Dyadic analyses indicated that one friend's prosocial behavior and relational aggression uniquely forecast changes in the other friend's perception of negativity in the relationship. Greater initial levels of prosocial behavior anticipated decreases in perceived negativity, whereas greater initial levels of relational aggression forecast increases in perceived negativity.
朋友的特征能够预测关系负面认知的变化。参与者(年龄在9至11岁之间)为240名儿童中期和青少年早期的孩子(114名男孩,126名女孩),他们参与了120对同性的最亲密友谊关系,这些关系在4至12周的时间内保持稳定。每位朋友都描述了他们对关系中负面情况的认知。通过同伴提名评估亲社会行为和关系攻击行为。二元分析表明,一个朋友的亲社会行为和关系攻击行为能够独特地预测另一个朋友对关系中负面情况认知的变化。亲社会行为的初始水平越高,预计感知到的负面情况会减少,而关系攻击行为的初始水平越高,则预测感知到的负面情况会增加。
