Abstract: This study employed behavioral observation, interviews, and questionnaires to conduct a comparative analysis of the social adjustment of 11-year-old children in China (n = 160) and Canada (n = 133). The results revealed the following: (1) Chinese children exhibited significantly higher levels of negative peer interactions, teacher-reported internalizing problems, self-perceived negative school attitudes, and feelings of loneliness compared to their Canadian counterparts; (2) Canadian children demonstrated significantly higher levels of proactive peer interactions and peer acceptance, as well as parent-reported externalizing and internalizing problem behaviors than Chinese children; (3) Across both countries, girls showed significantly more externalizing problem behaviors than boys; (4) Among Canadian children, girls engaged in significantly more proactive peer interactions than boys.
