A Psychometric Study of Positive and Negative Nominations and the Pupil Evaluation Inventory.

Two peer evaluation measures, the Pupil Evaluation Inventory (PEI) and positive and negative nominations, were compared in 260 elementary students (grades one-five). PEI factors and negative nominations were more stable over a four-month period than positive nominations, and PEI Aggression and Withdrawal scores were more stable than negative nominations. (JW)
