| Abstract | In his conceptualization of the developmental course of interpersonal understanding, Selman (1980) specifies a set of issues which are central to the concept. For each issue, he assumes that development proceeds through an ordered sequence of ontogenetic levels and that developmental progress has a high degree of inter-issue consistency. In contrast to the explicit assumptions about changes at the issue level, his empirical presentation relates mainly to the general course of development and does not systematically analyze issue-specific, intra-individual patterns of development. Reported here are data from a longitudinal study involving 73 children who were given a friendship interview when they were 9, 12, and 15 years of age. The interviews were analyzed separately for six friendship issues in order to establish the degree of consistency and variability between both individuals and issues. A number of results contradict or supplement Selman's statements. It is concluded that descriptions of "the general course of development" may lead to biased accounts of developmental changes.
