Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Children who are nominated by some peers as liked and by some peers as disliked are categorized as controversial. This is different from rejected (nominated by many peers as disliked) and neglected (nominated by few peers as either liked or disliked). Average refers to children who receive a moderate number of both liked and disliked nominations, but not enough to be categorized as either popular or rejected.
