The relationship between sociometric status in school and participation in after-school activities was examined in a sample of 28 elementary-school age boys with learning disabilities. A sociometric questionnaire measured both popularity and acceptance in school. A 21-item parent questionnaire measured after-school activity. Both popularity and acceptance in school were related to getting together informally with friends. Popularity, though, was not related to participating in structured programs, while acceptance was inversely related.
