abstract="Sociometric status is a widely used indicator to assess what is called popularity of a person within a group. The purpose of this paper is to show that status as defined by known indices may be biased whenever there are subgroups unequal in size within the total group and within-group choices are more probable than between-group choices. The problem of subgroup membership bias may be solved, however, by a simple linear transformation.<p />",
