Abstract in brief

  • The study investigated sibling jealousy and its connection to temperament and emotion regulation among firstborn children in China during COVID-19, finding that older children and greater age gaps between siblings tend to experience less jealousy.
  • Children with difficult temperaments are more likely to feel jealous and have poorer emotion regulation skills, which further increases sibling jealousy, with emotion regulation partially mediating this relationship.
  • These findings suggest that interventions focusing on improving emotion regulation could help families, especially those with children who have difficult temperaments, manage sibling jealousy more effectively.
