Resumo: | Episodes of playfighting and playchasing among 5 year old children were video-recorded during free play reriods in the yard of an Infant School in Sheffield, U.K., along the last two months of the school term. In addition, measures of friendship and of reported playfighting and playchasing partners were obtained from individual interviews with the same children. It was found that both playfighting and playchasing (either observed or reported) were more frequent with children reported as friends, and less frequent with neutral partners and non-friends. Playfighting was particularly frequent with reciprocal friends. Some characteristics of playfighting episodes were analyzed in relation on affiliative status of the partners. Group episodes of playfighting often involved reciprocal friends. Reciprocal friends often acted as "allies" to each other in group bouts, whereas non-friends were often "opponents". Allies tended to stay together after playfighting bouts more often than opponents. Children with low preference score in the group were also more likely to act as opponents. The results are discussed in relation to the possible funtional implications of playfighting and playchasing, such as practice of fighting skills, establishment and maintainance of affiliative relationships. |

Foram realizadas também entrevistas individuais com as mesmas crianças, nas quais as crianças indicavam seus amigos e seus parceiros mais frequentes nessas brincadeiras. Verificou-se que as parcerias mais frequentes (tanto observadas quanto relatadas) eram com crianças consideradas amigas, e menos frequentemente com crianças neutras e não-amigas. Brincadeiras de luta foram particularmente frequentes entre amigos recíprocos. Algumas características dos episódios de brincadeira de luta foram analisadas em relação ao status afiliativo dos parceiros. Episódios de brincadeira de luta em grupo envolveram frequentemente amigos recíprocos. Amigos recíprocos frequentemente atuaram como "aliados" nesses episódios, ao passo que não-amigos atuaram como "oponentes". Aliados tenderam a permanecer juntos ao término dos episódios mais frequentemente do que oponentes. Crianças que obtiveram escores baixos de popularidade no grupo atuaram proporcionalmente mais como oponentes. Os resultados são discutidos em termos de possíveis implicações funcionais das brincadeiras de luta e de perseguição, tais como prática de habilidades, estabelecimento e manutenção de relações afiliativas.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina1996-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/22027Biotemas; v. 9 n. 1 (1996); 19-372175-79250103-1643reponame:Biotemas (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/biotemas/article/view/22027/19967Copyright (c) 1996 Ana M.
