Concomitants of social acceptance: exploratory research and implications for treatment.
A population of 98 fourth and fifth grade students responded to instruments that yielded data on social acceptance, liking for others, need for approval, and interpersonal relationship orientation. Results suggest that social acceptance is related to interpersonal relationship orientation, but unrelated to liking for others and need for approval. Implications for treatment are discussed.
