Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to investigate the developmental process of peer relationships in infancy by comparing two basic theories. First is the Attachment Theory which shows the importance of parent-child intimate relationship and second is the Social Network Theory which represents the importance of personal networks around children in infancy for their peer relationships later. Participants were approximately 300 children who were followed-up from 0 to 3 years old. The results showed that the number of peer and the frequency of play with mates at age 3 were not predicted by the attachment-related variances, but by the size of a personal network at age 0, whether or not a child attends a childcare center at age 2 and the frequency of mother's peer management at age 2.
