AbstractTwo hundred children enrolled in Class 1, 2, 3, and 4 from Hisar city were assessed for sociometric status. The results revealed that the popular children scored significantly higher positive nominations and positive ratings than the rejected children. In contrast, the rejected children scored significantly higher negative nominations and negative ratings than the popular children. Test-retest reliability of rating scale measure was found to be very high than for nomination measure.Key Words: Socio-metric TechniquesInter-personal AttractionChildren
