Possession and Exchange of Materials in Chinese and American Preschools.
Navon, Roberta; Ramsey, Patricia G.
Journal of Research in Childhood Education, v4 n1 p18-29 Fall-Win 1989
Studied possession behaviors in 80 Chinese and American preschool children. Members from both groups took materials from each other. American children reacted more defensively to these actions than did their Chinese counterparts. Possession disputes were more likely to result in aggressive actions in the U.S. classroom than in the Chinese. (RJC)
