TL;DR: This paper analyzed the narratives from 24 Chinese mothers of middle school students in Nanjing, China to explore their parenting ideology and practices, and found that although all mothers wanted their children to do well in school, their primary goals were focused on raising socially and emotionally well-adjusted children who had the capacity to be self-sufficient and gainfully employed in the future.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper extended previous research on family stress, parenting, and child adjustment to families with adopted Chinese children and found that the overall pattern of relationships found in non-adoptive families is also seen in families with adoptive Chinese children.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 3-year longitudinal analysis examined the psychological and social correlates of adhering to gender-typed behaviors in friendships among boys during middle school in United States (N =446, Mage = 11.37 years) and in China (N=368, Mage= 12.20 years).

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors examined how behavioural inhibition was associated with shyness and social competence and how maternal parenting moderated the associations in urban Chinese children, concluding that maternal support might serve as a protective factor that buffered against the maladaptive development of inhibited children.

TL;DR: This paper explored the relationship between gender and income inequality within and across households in an urban Chinese sample by looking at survey data from 381 married couples with infants born in a Nanjing hospital between 2006 and 2007 and in-depth interviews with a subsample of 80 of these couples.
