Guided by the integrative model of parenting, the present study investigated the relationship between parental monitoring and racial/ethnic minority adolescents’ school engagement and academic motivation as a function of parental warmth, and explored whether these associations varied for boys and girls. Participants (60 % female) were 208 sixth through eighth grade students (63 % African American, 19 % Latino, 18 % Multiracial) from an urban middle school in the Midwestern United States. Youth completed an in-school survey with items on parenting (parental monitoring, mothers’/fathers’ warmth), cognitive engagement (school self-esteem), behavioral engagement (school trouble), and academic motivation (intrinsic motivation). As hypothesized, mothers’ warmth enhanced the association between parental monitoring and youths’ engagement and motivation. No gender differences in these associations emerged. Fathers’ warmth strengthened the negative association between parental monitoring and school trouble, and this association was stronger for boys. Implications regarding the importance of sustaining a high level of monitoring within the context of warm parent–adolescent relationships to best support academic outcomes among minority youth are discussed. 相似文献

Classroom context and school engagement are significant predictors of academic achievement. These factors are especially important
for academically at-risk students. Grounded in an ecological systems perspective, this study examined links between classroom
context, school engagement, and academic achievement among early adolescents. We took a multidimensional approach to the measurement
of classroom context and school engagement, incorporating both observational and self-reported assessments of various dimensions
of classroom context (instruction quality, social/emotional climate, and student–teacher relationship) and school engagement
(psychological and behavioral engagement). Using data from the NICHD Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development, we tested
whether school engagement mediated the link between classroom context and academic achievement among 5th grade students, and
whether these pathways were the same for students with previous achievement difficulties identified in 3rd grade. Participants
included 1,014 children (50% female) in 5th grade (mean age = 11). The majority of the participants were white (77%) and 23%
were children of color. Results indicated that psychological and behavioral engagement mediated the link between classroom
context and academic achievement for students without previous achievement difficulties. However, for students with previous
achievement difficulties psychological and behavioral engagement did not mediate the link between classroom context and academic
achievement. These results suggest that improving classroom quality may not be sufficient to improve student engagement and
achievement for students with previous achievement difficulties. Additional strategies may be needed for these students. 相似文献

Gaps in educational outcomes between racial/ethnic and socioeconomic groups persist in the United States, and parental involvement is often cited as an important avenue for improving outcomes among racially/ethnically diverse adolescents. This study utilized data from the Education Longitudinal Study 2002–2013 (56% female, N?=?4429), which followed 10th-graders through high school and ten years post-high school, to examine the links between parental involvement strategies and academic outcomes (grade point average and educational attainment). Participants included white, African American, and Hispanic/Latino adolescents from low-SES families. This study used recursive partitioning, a novel analytic strategy used for exploring higher-order interactions and non-linear associations among factors (e.g., parental educational involvement strategies) to predict an outcome (e.g., grade point average or educational attainment) through step-wise partitioning. The results showed that the combination of greater academic socialization and school-based involvement was beneficial for all adolescents’ grade point average, whereas the combination of home-based involvement with academic socialization and school-based involvement yielded mixed results. Greater academic socialization and home-based involvement appeared beneficial for educational attainment among African American and Hispanic/Latino adolescents, but not white adolescents. More home-based involvement and less academic socialization were associated with less educational attainment for white adolescents. Overall, the findings showed different combinations of parental educational involvement strategies were beneficial for adolescents across racial/ethnic groups, which may have implications for practice and policy. 相似文献

Implications of Out-of-School Activities for School Engagement in African American Adolescents 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The connection between out-of-school activities and school engagement was examined in 140, 6th through 9th grade African American
adolescents. Youth’s out-of-school activities were measured with a series of 7 nightly phone calls and focused on time in
structured (homework, academically-oriented, extracurricular/sports) and unstructured (watching television, hanging out with
peers) activities. School engagement was assessed during a home interview in terms of affective (school bonding), behavioral
(school grades), and cognitive (school self-esteem) dimensions. Regression analyses controlling for parents’ education and
youth grade in school showed that more time in extracurricular activities was associated with greater school self-esteem and
school bonding. In addition, more time spent on homework was associated with greater school bonding for boys. Conversely,
more time watching television was associated with lower school self-esteem and school bonding.
