Adolescents' self-reports of peer social activity were examined with regard to short-term stability and in relation to social adjustment. Two separate periods of data collection are reported; year 1 with 74 grade nine students and year 2 with 76 grade nine students.
On both occasions, four administrations of a self-report questionnaire were undertaken. As well, in year 2, social adjustment ratings, indices of perceived competence and self-efficacy, and IQ were collected.
The analyses of the measure's consistency indicated acceptable stability of the self reports across two weeks and high internal consistency.
