Children and Peer Relationships
Description
Book Introduction
In this book, developmental psychologist Melanie Killen and social psychologist and developmental psychologist Adam Rutland offer a unique perspective on social exclusion and bullying.
This book addresses when and where social exclusion occurs, and in particular approaches it from a group rather than an individual level.
The two authors address social exclusion from the perspective of social sphere theory, which holds that the spheres of morality and social conventions develop separately.
From this perspective, it is explained that even in infancy, it is possible to distinguish whether a particular transgression belongs to the moral realm or the social customary realm, and that social inclusion and exclusion can occur or be justified depending on which realm is given priority.
The authors attempt an integrated approach to social and developmental psychology, drawing on multiple theories to provide a deeper understanding and insight into the nuanced interactions between infants, children, and adolescents.
In particular, the way in which the theory of social identity development and the developmental model of subjective group dynamics are presented and combined with the theory of the social domain is interesting.

This book consists of a total of 9 chapters.
Beginning with the emergence of morality in early childhood, the book connects three concepts that permeate the book: morality, group identity, and prejudice, to social exclusion.
