Researchers study the effects on children’s popularity and the features of children’s popularity within individuals, within interactions, within relationships, and within groups. Investigators have turned to preferring children’s perceptions regarding popularity to sociometric results, avoiding negative nominations and imposing social cognitive mapping. The studies of popular children can provide, to a great degree, references on how to improve other children’s social status.

Key words: children, popularity, methods, effects, features
