abstract="Age-dependent differences in the relationship between physical attractiveness and the social perceptions of acquainted classmates were investigated in children three through ten years of age. Children were shown photographs of attractive and unattractive, sameage, known peers and indicated which of their classmates they liked, disliked, and viewed as most likely to exhibit prosocial, antisocial, and competence behaviors. In general, attractive children were viewed more positively as age increased. However, contrary to the 'beauty-is-good' stereotype, attractive boys were selected more often than unattractive boys for negative categories as age increased.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
