NOMINATION CHARTNOMINATION CHART• LOFCQ: Several stars had high locus

of control (21,20,11,26)• Child 7 considered most popular, child

1 least popular. Both female. Observed greater complexity in female groups.

• Anomalies– 4 and 26 are children I would

consider to be “controversial” children. Both are male and connect the two male groups in the graph…scored high in the negative question but are stars for the lunch question. 26 low PSD—not reality. 4 high PSD, however chosen by 3 children for lunch
