Abstract

Cognitive social structure maps the social relationships perceived by actors. This study characterizes the social network pattern of a high school classroom and verifies the perceived ties and the accuracy of social relationships reported by 23 students. Analyses of the cognitive social structure aggregations verified the density of these relationships. Most participants show vulnerabilities and conglomerate analysis of network structural data shows different perceptions of density and modularity. Our results differ from the limited literature in the area regarding higher accuracy in subjects with a lower centrality degree and intermediation.
