A teacher has two children in his classroom who he believes could be described as having "neglected sociometric status." Raoul is somewhat anxious; he hovers near other children but does not join in. Liese likes to do quiet activities like reading and drawing and doesn't seem to notice or care that she spends a lot of time alone. Given this scenario, which of the following statements is most likely to be accurate? A) The children will have equally poor outcomes because of their neglected status. B) Liese is at greater risk for negative developmental outcomes because, unlike Raoul, she isn't even aware of the problem. C) Raoul is at greater risk for negative developmental outcomes because he shows an inability, rather than a disinterest, in connecting with peers. D) Neither of these children are especially at risk for poor developmental outcomes. If they were actively rejected by peers rather than neglected, they would be more at risk.

    D) Neither of these children are especially at risk for poor developmental outcomes. If they were actively rejected by peers rather than neglected, they would be more at risk.

    Explanation:

    Children who are in a neglected sociometric status according to psychologists which means they are neither highly rejected or accepted by their peers have developed particularly positive academic and behavioral profiles.

    Whereas children who are in a rejected sociometric status which means they are highly disliked by their peers tend to have poor academic records and behave in ways which are considered inappropriate by society.

    Based on this, none of the children are at any risk for poor development because of their neglected sociometric status, rather they would be more at risk if they were actively rejected by their peers.
