Relationship among parenting behavior, SES, academic achievement and psychosocial functioning in Peruvian children
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.details##
Resumen
This study addresses how Negative Parental Control (NPC) and Positive
Parenting (PP) are associated with achievement in spelling, arithmetic or
reading, socio-economic status (SES) and psychosocial factors such as selfworth (SW) and behavioral problems (BP). The sample is formed by 587
children attending 6th grade of regular primary school and their families living in the urban zones of Metropolitan Lima, Peru. Structural Equation
Modeling was used to analyze the hypothesized relations. Four models were
built combining parenting dimensions and psychosocial factors. All models
showed a good fit. Results showed a strong positive relationship between
SES and achievement, and between SES and parenting. Strong associations
between psychosocial factors and achievement were found. Implications are
discussed about the role of SES on families and achievement but also about
the role of parenting in children’s psychosocial functioning.
