Relationships between parental involvement and adolescents’ academic achievement and aspiration

This study investigates two aspects of maternal and paternal involvement. First, what are the associations of parental involvement with adolescents’ academic achievement? Second, how does adolescent’s educational aspiration mediate the relationship between parental involvement and achievement? Samples of middle school students were analysed separately according to adolescents’ gender. The analyses were conducted by using a generalised structural equation modelling. The results show that both maternal and paternal involvement is associated with adolescent’s academic outcome even though some differences are also found. Adolescent’s educational aspirations mediate the association between parental involvement and academic grade. Among several discussion topics, discussing about adolescents’ schooling is more significantly and positively associated with grade.
