Abstract

Preschool, first grade and second grade firstborn children generated strategies for two types of hypothetical interpersonal problems that might arise within the context of a friendship relationship. Children's reasoning about types of initial and follow-up strategies and predicted success of interpersonal strategies varied with age and the type of interpersonal problem. Increases in social modes that have previously been related to behavior adjustment and social competence were discussed in terms of development of cognitive processes and socialization factors.
