The Wiley Handbook of Group Processes in Children and Adolescents, 1st Edition, serves as an international reference on intra- and inter-group dynamics across diverse developmental and cultural contexts. It highlights research demonstrating that group memberships significantly shape children's attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors, with this influence increasing throughout childhood.

The volume explores social identity perspectives, research methodologies, and ethnic identity development among immigrant and minority youth. It also examines group-based exclusion, resource allocation, and theoretical frameworks surrounding implicit and explicit prejudice.

In addition, the work examines interventions designed to reduce bias and victimization, addressing peer group dynamics, intergroup contact strategies, and media initiatives such as Sesame Street that foster social inclusion.
