The present study examines whether subgroups of unpopular children differ in terms of competence in multiple domains. Specifically, subgroups of aggressive unpopular, withdrawn unpopular, and aggressive-withdrawn unpopular and average status children were identified on the basis of peer evaluations. The subgroups were then compared in terms of peer and self-perceptions of competence in various nonsocial and social domains. Results indicated that the 3 subgroups of unpopular children exhibited distinct profiles according to peer perceptions, with aggressive-withdrawn unpopular children being viewed as deficient in virtually every area assessed, and aggressive unpopular and withdrawn unpopular children viewed as exhibiting particular strengths and weaknesses across domains. In terms of self-perceptions, results indicated that withdrawn-unpopular children expressed more accurate, but negative self-evaluations, while children in the aggressive subgroups tended to overestimate their competencies.
本研究考察不受欢迎儿童的亚组在多个领域的能力方面是否存在差异。具体而言，根据同伴评价确定了攻击性不受欢迎、退缩型不受欢迎、攻击-退缩型不受欢迎以及一般地位儿童的亚组。然后比较了这些亚组在各种非社交和社交领域中同伴和自我对能力的认知。结果表明，不受欢迎儿童的这三个亚组根据同伴认知呈现出不同的特征，攻击-退缩型不受欢迎儿童在几乎每个评估领域都被视为存在缺陷，而攻击性不受欢迎和退缩型不受欢迎儿童在各领域表现出特定的优势和劣势。在自我认知方面，结果表明，退缩型不受欢迎儿童表达了更准确但负面的自我评价，而攻击性亚组中的儿童往往高估自己的能力。
