TL;DR: Although the focus is on the collection of peer nomination data in particular, many of the requirements, considerations, and implications are also relevant for those who consider the use of other sociometric assessment methods or computer-based assessments in general.

Abstract: New technologies have led to several major advances in psychological research over the past few decades. Peer nomination research is no exception. Thanks to these technological innovations, computerized data collection is becoming more common in peer nomination research. However, computer-based assessment is more than simply programming the questionnaire and asking respondents to fill it in on computers. In this chapter the advantages and challenges of computer-based assessments are discussed. In addition, a list of practical recommendations and considerations is provided to inform researchers on how computer-based methods can be applied to their own research. Although the focus is on the collection of peer nomination data in particular, many of the requirements, considerations, and implications are also relevant for those who consider the use of other sociometric assessment methods (e.g., paired comparisons, peer ratings, peer rankings) or computer-based assessments in general.

The importance of considering and reporting sources of error in peer nomination research: A response to Bukowski et al.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reanalyzed findings from a recent study by Bukowski, Dirks, Commisso, Velasquez, and Lopez and compared the results to recent findings of Babcock, Marks, van den Berg, and Cillessen published in the year 2018 to show that systematic nominator missingness can, indeed, have an impact on nomination measures.
Peer Network Status and Depressive Symptoms among Early Adolescents: Testing the Mediating Effects of Metaperception and Loneliness.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used sociometric methods and self-report scales from 388 students aged 12-13 to test the hypothesis that among early adolescents, their status in their peer network (likeability/dislikeability) will be associated with depressive symptoms but only indirectly, through the subjective perception of this status (positive/negative metaperception) and loneliness (feeling of social isolation).

Continuity and change in social and physical aggression from middle childhood through early adolescence.
TL;DR: Though the results challenge the claim that social aggression is at its peak in early adolescence, the findings emphasize the importance of considering different developmental trajectories in trying to understand origins and outcomes of aggression.
