EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! The choices should be
real choices that are
natural parts of
classroom activities.
! The basis for choice and
the restrictions on the
choosing should bemade clear.

EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! All pupils should be
equally free to
participate in the activity

EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! Give pupils a good reason
for listing their preferences
! Present your plans for
utilizing the choices
! Plan and word the
directions carefully so that
pupils will understandclearly what is wanted

EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! Sociometric questions shouldbe formulated in terms of the
actual situation and the
purposes of the teacher
! The choices should be actually
used to organize groups. More
spontaneous and truthful
responses will be forthcoming
when pupils know that their
choices will be used for.

EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! Utilize realistic and meaningful choice situations which
bear a definite relationship to the activities of the group
! Word the question in such a way that the pupils
understand its purposes and significance
! Have a few pupils prepare a list of the first and last
names of the members of the group. The lettering
should be large enough so that all the pupils can readthe names

EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! Allow sufficient time for pupils to record their choices
! Have pupils list their choices on a small sheet of
paper or a 3- by 5-inch card. Each pupil should sign
his paper or card so that he may be identified.
! Indicate precisely the number of choices which each
pupil is to make
! Explain the range of choice

determining the social acceptance of individual
pupils

EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! Essential data are indicated at the top of the sheet
! The tabulation sheet is blocked off in cells, one rowand one column for each pupil in the group. First
names and initials of last names are listed across
the top and down the side of the tabulation sheet

EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! Girls and boys are listed separately in alphabetical
order according to initial of last name. A vacantrow and column separate the two lists. This type of
listing helps in the analysis and interpretation of
the results

! The columns represent preferences indicated on the
question blanks. Choices are entered in the cell where
the column under the name of the pupil chosen isintersected by row opposite the name of the chooser
! To facilitate tabulation of choices, the choices blanks
can be arranged in the order in which choosers’names appear on the tabulation sheet

! Use a large sheet of paper for a trial form
! Draw the concentric circles and bisecting line
! Fill in the necessary identifying data
! Within the innermost circle, indicate the boys and
girls who, according to score, rank in the upper 25%of the group. Disperse these symbols within the circle.

! Draw lines representing the direction of the first choices of
pupils in the group, using arrow tips to indicate direction of
choice
! Indicate second choices similarly by using a dotted or colored
line
! Study the trial sociogram for ways to relocate symbols in order
to improve the clarity of the diagram and estimate the number

30/38
EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! Do the choices center upon a few pupils, or arethey relatively well dispersed?
! Are there pupils who receive no choices?
! Do choices cross sex lines, or is there a rather
definite cleavage between girls and boys?
! Is there a satisfactory degree of mutuality in thechoice patterns?

EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! If possible, give the unchosen pupil his first choice
! When choices are mutual, give the pupil his
highest reciprocated choice
! If the pupil has chosen only individuals who have
not chosen him in return, give him his first choice
as an associate if there is a possibility that he will
be accepted by this individual
UTILIZING RESULTS

33/38
EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! Do not place any pupil with a pupil who may activelyreject him
! In forming groups on the basis of the results of
sociometric tests, provide each pupil with an associate ofhis choice. If possible, organize groups in such a way that
their members are linked together by the choice patterns.
! Provide for leadership which will be recognized andaccepted by group members

"
Arguments in favor: rejected pupils can beidentified and helped, and that interpersonal
friction can be avoided
" Counterarguments: Pupils become more consciousof their feelings of rejection
UTILIZING RESULTS

want as a companion.

! It helps pinpoint the
cliques, cleavages and
mutual relations present in
a group
! It provides the basic data
for rearranging the group in
a manner that would result
in a more cohesive social
pattern
ADVANTAGES
8/18/2019 -Lesson 14 Sociometric Techniques
37/38
EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! Only choices, not the
reason for the choices, are
indicated.
! Mutual choices and cliques
do not necessarily indicate
social acceptance or
integration.
DISADVANTAGES
8/18/2019 -Lesson 14 Sociometric Techniques
38/38
EDRE 146 • GROUP 5
! It is tempting to assume
that isolates are actually
rejected by the other pupils.
They may simply be new,
shy, or not chosen for some
other relatively minor
reason
! Popularity or isolation often
depends on the situation
DISADVANTAGES
