Robin Banerjee's Sociogram Tools


What is a sociogram?

 

Note: The Sociogram Tools on this website are based on over three decades of work on sociometric procedures, and provide a simple implementation of very widely-used nomination procedures for capturing levels of acceptance and rejection within the peer group. For further reading on sociometric approaches to children's peer relations, see the following examples:
