Translated title:
Investigating parenting relationships with academic self-regulation and motivation
Summary:
Previous surveys on parental behavior (parenting) have highlighted the contribution of positive parenting behavior to the development of academic self-regulation and motivation. As a concept, academic self-regulation refers to the conversion of cognitive skills into academic, while motivation is divided into external and intrinsic. The purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between parenting and academic self-regulation and motivation. The survey involved 202 students attending the second class of junior high and the second class of lyceum in four different schools at the island of Cephalonia. Three tools, one for Parental Behavior, one for measuring academic self-regulation (Academic Self-Regulating Students - SRQ-A) and one for measuring the motives of teenagers (Academic Motivation Self rating inventory) were provided. The results confirmed previous research and existing knowledge of the positive correlation between supportive parenting practices, identified regulation and intrinsic motivation. Teens who report warmth behavior from their parents, are expected to use ways to regulate their behavior. In the results of the present study, there are differences in the averages between students of both classes and between the two sexes. In any case, the low averages observed highlight the need for further research in the Greek population as well as the implementation of programs aimed at enhancing academic self-regulation.
