Abstract
Students' social and emotional skills are related to one's success in life. However, the association between students', parents', and teachers' mindsets and these skills remains underexplored. Our study utilizes data from 7268 Chinese adolescents aged 10 and 15 from the OECD Survey on Social and Emotional Skills, analyzing the relationship between mindsets and skills acquisition. The findings reveal that students' own mindsets are associated with their social and emotional skills, and that the mindsets of parents and teachers are also related to these skills. Practical implications are discussed, along with some insights into future education of social and emotional skills.
