Abstract

As part of a longitudinal study, we examined sibling and friend conflicts in semi-structured closed-field situations in early childhood, middle childhood, and adolescence. The pattern of similarities and differences between sibling and friend conflicts shifted over time, as sibling and friend relationships became increasingly similar in symmetry, intimacy, and familiarity.
