A sample of 972 Chinese children (<em>M</em><sub><em>age</em></sub> = 9.60 years at baseline) completed assessments of NATs, gratitude, and subjective happiness at three different time points with six-month intervals. The findings revealed that gratitude significantly predicted subsequent levels of NATs and subjective happiness, while NATs also had a direct impact on subsequent levels of gratitude and subjective happiness. Moreover, subjective happiness at time 2 was found to significantly predict levels of gratitude and NATs only at time 3. Importantly, our results demonstrated that gratitude played a crucial mediating role in the relationship between NATs and subjective happiness across time. These novel findings contribute to our comprehensive understanding of how gratitude contributes to holistic development in children, providing valuable scientific evidence for positive development among Chinese children.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology","volume":"99 ","pages":"Article 101832"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144522726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies explored the factors related to the development and variation of students' self-efficacy, but they only focused on a limited set of predictors. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of the factors affecting self-efficacy, it is necessary to build a predictive model based on a large number of predictors using a data-driven approach. Therefore, guided by socio-ecological theory, we categorized 256 candidate predictors from the PISA 2018 student and school questionnaires in five levels of socio-ecological systems. We then used two machine learning algorithms, Lasso and XGBoost, to predict self-efficacy of 612,004 students aged 15 to 16 years from 79 countries and regions. The results showed that XGBoost outperformed Lasso. We then extracted feature importance from the best-performing XGBoost model to rank the features both overall and within each level of the socio-ecological systems. The analysis revealed that individual-level attributes such as mastery goal orientation, meaning of life, and positive emotions were the most important predictors of self-efficacy. Other significant contextual factors included parents' emotional support, home possessions, and school climate factors (e.g., cooperation climate). Furthermore, self-efficacy varied significantly across countries. This study advances our understanding of self-efficacy by identifying the important predictors from different levels of socio-ecological perspectives. The results suggest that self-efficacy is a composite outcome shaped by a myriad of influences spanning from individual factors to broader socio-ecological perspectives.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48168,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Developmental Psychology","volume":"99 ","pages":"Article 101828"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144490398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
