Brief data report on parent-child pro-environmental engagement across five cities in China

The data presented here was partially published in the article “Action, Communication, and Engagement: How Parents “ACE” Children's Pro-Environmental Behaviors” [1]. The data was collected from 23 elementary summer schools across five cities in China. Two data files were presented: Child's Dataset, and Parent's Dataset. The Child's Dataset included children's parents’ pro-environmental behaviors (PEBs), children's perception of parental PEBs, children's report of parent-child communication toward environmental issues. The Parent's Dataset included parents’ PEBs and parental report on parent-child pro-environmental engagements. Demographic information was presented in each dataset. The datasets can be used for reproducibility, reanalysis, longitudinal follow-up studies, and cross-cultural comparisons.
