Problem:
How can I make notes with bullet points in this paragraph?
To appreciate how culture shapes children's self-descriptions, consider these two 6-year-olds describing themselves: *I am a wonderful and very smart person. A funny and hilarious person. A kind and caring person. A good-grades person." "I'm a human being. I'm a child. I'm my mom and dad's child, my grandma and grandpa's grandson. I'm a hard- working child." It should not surprise you to find out that the first child is European American and the second is Chinese. These self-descriptions echo the values of Western and Asian cultures. Westerners and Europeans emphasize an autonomous self that can be described in terms of unique personal traits; Asians emphasize an interdependent self that can be described in terms of social roles and responsibilities in a network of relationships. Qi Wang (2001, 2004b, 2013) explored self- representations in the United States and China by asking adults and children to describe themselves so that the researchers "could write a story about them." European American children's descriptions were more *personal"-referring to personal attributes ("I'm cute"), preferences ("I love playing piano"), possessions ("I have a teddy bear"), and behaviors unrelated to other people ("I'm happy"). Chinese children's descriptions were more "social"-referring to group memberships ("I'm a girl"), and interpersonal relations ("I love my mommy," "My cousins and I do lots of things together").
