    Area of Science:

    • Developmental Psychology
    • Social Psychology
    • Child Psychology

    Background:

    • Understanding children's perceptions of deviant behavior is crucial for developmental and social psychology.
    • Peer group dynamics and social norms significantly influence how children define deviance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate age-related differences in children's understanding and judgment of deviant peer behavior.
    • To explore how children attribute psychological disorder based on behavioral exemplars.

    Main Methods:

    • Interviews with first, fourth, seventh, and eleventh graders on peer deviance.
    • Deviance judgments on story characters exhibiting aggression or paranoia.

    Main Results:

    • Children's understanding of deviance shifts with age, moving from egocentric to norm-based and consensus-based perspectives.
    • Younger children (first graders) struggled with group norms, while adolescents emphasized social consensus.

    Conclusions:

    • Age significantly impacts the criteria children use to define deviant behavior and attribute psychological disorder.
    • Adolescents demonstrate a more sophisticated understanding of social consensus in evaluating behavior.
