TL;DR: Investigation of peer relationships and participation in social and recreational activities among 235 adolescents and adults with autism who live at home found that having peer relationships was predicted by individual characteristics, but not by characteristics of the environment.
Abstract: In this study, we investigate peer relationships and participation in social and recreational activities among 235 adolescents and adults with autism who live at home. The prevalence of having friendships, peer relationships, and participating in social and recreational activities were all low and comparable to previous research. Both individual and environmental factors were investigated as predictors of having peer relationships and participation in social and recreational activities. Having peer relationships was predicted by individual characteristics (younger age, and less impairment in social interaction skills), but not by characteristics of the environment. Greater participation in social and recreational activities was predicted by characteristics of the individual with autism (greater functional independence, less impairment in social interaction skills, higher levels of internalizing behaviors) and characteristics of the environment (greater maternal participation in social and recreational activities, greater number of services received, and inclusion in integrated settings while in school).

TL;DR: The authors argue that early human development is founded upon a normal infant's capacity for distinct forms of "I- Thou" and "I - It" relatedness, and that autism may represent the psycho-pathological sequelae to biologically-based incapacities for social perception and interpersonal engagement.
Abstract: The purpose of this essay is to illustrate how the phenomenon of early childhood autism may cast light on issues that are central to our Understanding Of Normal Child Development - Issues Such As The Emotional origins of social experience and social understanding, the contribution of interpersonal relations to the genesis of symbolism and creative thought, and the role of intersubjectivity in the development of self. Drawing upon philosophical writings as well as empirical research on autism, the author challenges the individualistic and cognitive bias of much developmental psychology, and argues that early human development is founded upon a normal infant's capacity for distinct forms of "I - Thou" and "I - It" relatedness. To a large degree, autism may represent the psycho-pathological sequelae to biologically-based incapacities for social perception and interpersonal engagement.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the role that attachment styles play in the way adults disclose themselves to others and found that both secure and ambivalent people showed more self-disclosure than avoidant people.
Abstract: In 3 studies, 352 undergraduate Israeli students were classified into secure, avoidant, and ambivalent attachment groups, and their differences in traitlike measures of self-disclosure willingness and flexibility and in disclosure reciprocity and liking of hypothetical or real partners were assessed. Findings indicated that both secure and ambivalent people showed more self-disclosure than avoidant people. Findings also yielded that secure and ambivalent people disclosed more information to, felt better interacting with, and were more attracted to a high discloser partner than a low discloser partner. In contrast, avoidant people's self-disclosure and liking were not affected by the partner's disclosure. Secure people showed more disclosure flexibility and topical reciprocity than ambivalent and avoidant people. Findings are discussed in terms of the interaction goals of attachment groups. Attachment theory (Bowlby, 1969,1973,1980) explains individual differences in the way infants regulate inner distress and relate to others. Recently, Hazan and Shaver (1987) extended attachment theory from research on parent-child interaction to the study of adult interpersonal relationships. In the current study, we continue Hazan and Shaver's line of research and examine the role that attachment styles play in the way adults disclose themselves to others. In adults, self-disclosure is critical in determining the outcome of interpersonal relationships (i£., Berg & Derlega, 1987) and may be associated with a person's attachment style.

TL;DR: This article explored the role of negative relationships in the context of social networks in work organizations and found that these negative relationships may have greater power than positive relationships to explain workplace outcomes, while positive relationships may not have the same power as negative relationships.
Abstract: We explore the role of negative relationships in the context of social networks in work organizations. Whereas network researchers have emphasized the benefits and opportunities derived from positive interpersonal relationships, we examine the social liabilities that can result from negative relationships in order to flesh out the entire “social ledger.” Deriving our argument from theory and research on negative asymmetry, we propose that these negative relationships may have greater power than positive relationships to explain workplace outcomes
