Peer reviewedFalbo, Toni; Poston, Dudley L., Jr. – Child Development, 1993
Surveyed 4,000 third and sixth graders and their parents and teachers, from 4 Chinese provinces. Found that, although only children scored higher on tests of verbal ability, were taller, and weighed more than firstborn and later born children, other measures of academic and personality development were similar between the groups.
