Comradeship

Peer Group Relations among Preadolescents in Kibbutz Versus City

Ruth Sharabany

University of Haifa

The present study focuses on the relations of preadolescents to their peers as a group. It was hypothesized that kibbutz children would display greater "comradeship" relations to their peer group. Over 900 fifth and sixth graders from 20 kibbutzim and 8 schools in the greater Tel-Aviv area responded to a questionnaire designed to assess dimensions of relations to peer group. In comparison to city children, kibbutz children reported more extensive social interactions with their peers but a weaker identification with their peer group. Kibbutz boys showed least concern about group sanctions. The failure to support the hypothesis of greater degree of comrade relations among kibbutz children is discussed in terms of kibbutz children's chance for conflict when living with peers, guarding against identification and conformity, and less recognition of the significance of peers while living with them.
