Chen, Xinyin; Li, Dan; Li, Zhen-yun; Li, Bo-shu; Liu, Mowei
Developmental Psychology, v36 n3 p302-14 May 2000
Examined Chinese sixth-graders' sociability and prosocial orientation and adjustment at age 12 and 2 years later. Found that: (1) prosocial orientation predicted social and school adjustment and externalizing problems; (2) sociability uniquely predicted internalizing problems and emotional adjustment; and (3) prosocial orientation and sociability might moderate development of adjustment difficulties.
