Self in Learning among Chinese Children
Li, Jin; Yue, Xiaodong
New Directions for Child and Adolescent Development, n104 p27-43 2004
We present our recent research on children's learning goals and personal agency in the domain of learning in order to show the complexity of selves in Chinese culture. Our research poses challenges to the widely claimed collectivist self-concept in Chinese children and calls for reexamination of selves in specific domains across cultures. (Contains 1 table.)
