Abstract

A child's or adolescent's social-emotional abilities are crucial as protective components in their overall development since they protect them from a variety of behavioral and mental health problems, including risky conduct and psychological symptoms such as rage, despair, and anxiety. The major purpose of this study was to investigate the social-emotional abilities of Vietnamese elementary school children, specifically their ability to collaborate and empathize with others and the ability to regulate their emotions and solve problems. Students in the 4th and 5th grades completed the 40-item questionnaire, with 562 boys and 764 girls answering the questions in total. As a result of the research, the primary finding indicated that social-emotional skills in elementary school children can be identified, strengthened, and nurtured. These skills enable children to accumulate and apply knowledge effectively to solve problems in life, achieve academic goals and become more empathetic to others, and build and cultivate better relationships with their peers and teachers.
