Despite the varied definitions of this concept, it is generally agreed upon that social competence requires some element of being effective in social interaction (Dodge, 1985; Rose-Kransor, 18 What Is Social Competence? 1997). To assess this ‘social effectiveness,’ social competence can be broken down into more specific levels of classification (Anderson & Messick, 1974). Most commonly, this has been done through operationalizing social competence as a measure of sociometric status (popularity), relationship quality and quantity, functional outcomes, and/or social skills.
