In school settings, it can be helpful to understand how a student perceives their connection to classmates. The Classmate Group Attractiveness Scale is a brief self-report measure intended to assess a student’s perceived comfort, belonging, and social support within the classroom peer group.
The measure includes 5 items and typically takes about 1 minutes to complete. Developed by Jacob L. Moreno, the Classmate Group Attractiveness Scale may be used as a screening tool to inform classroom climate monitoring and to identify students who may experience peer disconnection or limited perceived support, warranting follow-up assessment or targeted supports.
