Consider the video of young boys playing football on a playground. Notice that one of the boys remains on the side and is not invited to participate
In relation to how he is treated by the other boys, what peer nomination category do you think he is likely to receive? Explain how it might be measured.
What will be an ideal response?
It is likely the boy not invited to play would be assigned to the "neglected" category. This might be determined by asking all of the boys in the group to nominate the person who they would most (or least) like to play with or have for a friend (e.g., "Of these boys, who do you consider your best friend?"). If he were neglected, the boy not invited to play would receive few or no nominations (neither positive nor negative).
