Abstract

Background: Parental academic support plays a significant role in fostering academic resilience in students. By providing encouragement, guidance, and emotional support, parents can help their children develop the coping skills and self-confidence necessary to overcome obstacles and persist in their academic endeavors. Objectives: This study examines the relationship between parental academic support and students’ academic well-being, with a particular focus on the mediating role of academic resilience. Methods: This study employed a descriptive-correlational design. The population included all high school students in Ahvaz city during the 2022 - 2023 academic year. A sample of 384 students was selected using a multistage cluster sampling method. The research instruments included the School-Related Well-Being Scale (SWBS), Academic Support Scale, and Academic Resilience Scale. Structural equation modeling (SEM) in SPSS 25 and AMOS 25 was used to analyze the model relationships, followed by bootstrapping to test indirect effects. Results: The findings indicated significant positive relationships between academic resilience and academic well-being, and between parental academic support and academic resilience (P < 0.001). However, the direct relationship between parental academic support and academic well-being was not significant. The indirect relationship between parental academic support and academic well-being through academic resilience was found to be significant (P = 0.006). The final model demonstrated a good fit to the data, as evidenced by fit indices, including RMSEA (0.001), TLI (0.99), and CFI (0.99). Conclusions: The findings support the hypothesized mediating role of academic resilience. These results suggest that parental involvement, which fosters students' ability to recover from setbacks and persist in their studies, ultimately contributes to positive academic experiences and well-being.
