Abstract This study used a story-telling task to examine 112 Chinese children's (M = 8.37 years, range: 5 to 13.25 years) prosocial behavior toward Chinese and White members harmed intentionally by another story character or accidentally. Children rewarded story characters with stickers following each story. Overall, there was an in-group bias such that children were more prosocial (awarded more stickers) with Chinese individuals hurt intentionally versus accidentally. This tendency was present at all ages. In addition, there was a tendency for girls' in-group favoritism to increase with age, whereas it decreased with age for boys.
