Abstract:

To explore the relationship between parental educational involvement and junior high school students’ learning responsibility, as well as the roles of learning motivation and self-efficacy in this relationship, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 1006 middle school students using the Parental Educational Involvement Scale, Learning Responsibility Scale, Learning Motivation Scale, and Self-efficacy Scale. The results revealed that: (1) Parental educational involvement can significantly and positively predict learning responsibility; (2) Learning motivation and self-efficacy both play independent mediating roles between parental educational involvement and learning responsibility; (3) Parental educational involvement can also influence learning responsibility through the chain mediating effect of learning motivation and self-efficacy. This study reveals the mechanism by which parental educational involvement affects junior high school students’ learning responsibility, providing a theoretical basis for enhancing junior high school students’ learning responsibility and optimizing the way parents get involved in education.
