In this article it is argued that interventions in pupil-pupil interactions have to be grounded in a through understanding of pupil meanings and the social processes which generate them. The argument is elaborated via a critique of some existing studies of such interventions, like those of peer tutoring, and in discussion of the findings of an interview study. In general, studies of peer tutoring have been psychology-based and have failed to consider the significance of pupils' understanding of deviance derived from pupils' social location. An alternative approach is explored utilizing the findings of ethnographic studies, and the findings of an interview study with fourth year pupils in a secondary school. The data is organised using the constructs of consensual and non-consensual deviance. Pupils formally designated 'examination' pupils revealed different views from those designated 'non-examination' and 'less able' although they also held views in common. The implications of these findings for peer tutoring interventions are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article reviews the book "These well-adjusted children," by Grace Langdon and Irving W. Stout.

A primary purpose of this study is to describe a theoretical approach which will aid in identifying and classifying role stresses within an occupational position. In order to accomplish this purpose, the findings of an occupational study will be used to furnish concrete examples of each category of role stresses. This study is based on data derived from a review of the appropriate literature and from twenty-seven four-hour interviews with teachers in three selected parishes in Louisiana. The sociologist is primarily concerned with patterns of social behavior. In order to understand these patterns he is concerned also with the components or causative factors that structure behavior, the manner of their coalescence, the patterns and processes that evolve in social action, and finally, the consequences or functions of specific patterns of interaction in specified situations. Research findings are reported which indicate reasons why these stresses have occurred, the mechanisms by which they are usually ameliorated, and the consequences of these stresses.
