Influence of parental stress on online learning engagement among parents in Arab nations

ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of parental stress on engagement with online learning during and after the COVID-19 pandemic in Arab nations. A total of 729 parents from various Arab countries participated in the study by completing a 42-item questionnaire that measured four types of stress—personal, academic, technical, and financial—as well as behavioural, emotional, and cognitive engagement. Demographic factors, including gender, income, number of children, and country of residence, were found to correlate with different levels of stress and engagement. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) were employed to validate the relationships between stress and engagement, while MANOVA explored the effects of demographic variables. The results show that personal and academic stress positively influence all forms of engagement, while technical stress has a significant negative effect. Financial stress did not demonstrate a measurable impact on parental engagement. The findings highlight the need for targeted strategies to manage parental stress, particularly personal and academic, to improve parental involvement in online education. These insights are crucial for policymakers and educators in developing support systems for parents during transitions to online learning environments.

The Relationship between Parental Educational Involvement and Learning Engagement among Chinese Middle School Students: The Mediating Effect of Gratitude and Hope.

Despite the extensive body of literature on the correlation between family dynamics and academic achievement among students, there remains a notable gap in research investigating the influence of parental educational involvement on student learning engagement. Based on the developmental-ecological model of student engagement and relevant theoretical frameworks, this study used the quantitative analysis method to construct a chain mediation model to test the relationship between parental educational involvement and the learning engagement of middle school students, as well as the potential mediating role of gratitude and hope. This study employed a cross-sectional study using whole-cluster random sampling to measure middle school students aged 11-18 years old in two schools over a one-week period. Through the use of self-reporting surveys, this study assessed the levels of parental educational involvement, gratitude, hope, and learning engagement among 754 middle school students (48% female; Mage = 14.83, SD = 1.65) in Hubei Province, China. The mediation effect was analyzed using regression analysis and the chained mediation model and tested via the Bootstrap method. The findings suggested that parental educational involvement significantly positively related to learning engagement among middle school students, while gratitude and hope serve as partial mediators in the relationship between parental educational involvement and learning engagement. These findings revealed the psychological mechanisms underlying the relationship between parental educational involvement and learning engagement among middle school students, providing valuable insights for enhancing their level of learning engagement.

Family and School Cooperation as Social Capital

Starting from the belief that the interaction and connection between people, on which the relationship between the family and the school is based, is a value for itself, from the specific aspect of the theory of social capital, the cooperation between the family and the school is viewed. The paper aims to describe the cooperation between family and school as a form of social capital, i.e. as a resource that contributes to the educational achievements of students. Representation and outcomes of social capital in the education field are analyzed from different points of view. Different levels of social capital analysis potentially lead to implications for the improvement of family-school cooperation operationalized by different activities of parental involvement in children's education by (in)equality of family resources and context.

Parental Involvement and Children's Subjective Well-Being: Mediating Roles of the Sense of Security and Autonomous Motivation in Chinese Primary School Students.

Parental involvement may influence the subjective well-being of primary school students, but the specific mechanisms remain unclear. This study explores the mechanisms between parental involvement and primary school students' subjective well-being. The current study investigated 340 fifth and sixth grade students and their parents from a primary school using the Parental Education Involvement Behavior Scale, the Well-Being Scale, the Sense of Security Scale, and the Learning Self-Regulation Scale. We found that (1) sense of security plays a complete mediating role between parental involvement and primary school students' subjective well-being; (2) autonomous motivation has a marginal mediating effect between parental involvement and subjective well-being of primary school students; and (3) sense of security and autonomous motivation play a chain mediating role between parents' educational involvement and primary school students' well-being. In conclusion, parental involvement appears to contribute to primary school children's subjective well-being, and this effect may be mediated individually and sequentially by the children's sense of security and autonomous motivation.

Being a right parent: a narrative review of the theory and practice of parental involvement in sport parenting.

The family is the first classroom for children and adolescents to learn and grow, and parents' behavior plays an important role in influencing their children's development, which is also evident in the process of sport participation. The main purpose of this study is to summarise the specific theoretical and practical experiences of parents in sport parenting based on a comprehensive review of the types and functions that constitute parental involvement in sport parenting and the process of their practice. To this end, this study used narrative research as the main research method and searched the literature related to parents' involvement in parenting through sport using the Web of Science database. Using the theoretical underpinnings of parents' implementation of sport parenting and their role practice, studies were screened and 39 pieces of literature were finally obtained. The study found that in terms of theoretical underpinnings, the existing types of parental involvement in sport parenting can be broadly categorized into four types: authoritative, authoritarian, permissive and rejecting-neglecting. The functions of parental involvement in sport education have two dimensions: promoting sport development and promoting socialization. Based on a review of their theories, we further summarise and conclude the consequences of action and appropriate practices of parental practices in three scenarios: on the sports field, on the way home and in the private space. It is assumed that parents, when participating in sports parenting, need to: (I) regulate their own behavior in order to avoid psychological pressure on their children due to inappropriate behavior; (II) play different roles at different stages of their children's sports development; (III) should not put too much pressure on their children's performance. Based on these reviews of the theory and practice of parental involvement in sport parenting, this study further examines the theoretical limitations of the established research. It is argued that future research should pay attention to the differences between the identities and expectations of parents or children of different genders about their sport parenting, in addition to the differences in parental involvement in sport parenting and different practices in different cultural contexts.

심리사회적 학교환경에 대한 인식이 학생의 성장에 미치는 영향

Purpose: This study analyzed whether the psychosocial school environment mitigates the detrimental effects of poverty and influences students' initial cognitive (Korean, math, and English grades) and emotional (self-esteem) development during elementary school, as well as their growth trajectories throughout middle and high school. Methods: This study used longitudinal data from the same cohort of students surveyed at three intervals: elementary, middle, and high school spanning a six-year period from 2015, to 2018 and 2021. Data were obtained from the Korea Welfare Panel Study Supplementary Survey on Children.Analysis was conducted using the Multilevel Growth Model to examine the cognitive and emotional development trajectories of students throughout their elementary, middle, and high school years. Results: In terms of cognitive development, the study found that teacher support within the psychosocial school environment positively influenced the growth rate of Korean language subject grades. Regarding emotional growth, factors such as teacher support, school atmosphere, and peer relationships within the psychosocial school environment all exhibited significant positive effects on the initial levels of self-esteem among elementary school students. Additionally, the school atmosphere positively impacted the growth rate of self-esteem. The negative impact of poverty was often diminished or mitigated with the inclusion of variables such as students’ learning attitudes and parental educational involvement and supervision. Furthermore, with the additional inclusion of psychosocial school environment variables, the adverse effects of poverty almost completely disappeared. However, the influence of poverty persisted, manifesting as a negative impact on the initial scores of English subject grades. Conclusion: The psychosocial school environment can positively contribute to students' cognitive and emotional development. Particularly, teacher support has a positive impact on both the cognitive and emotional growth of students, and school climate and peer relationships are positively associated with emotional development. Therefore, efforts should be made in schools to strengthen teacher support, and to foster a positive school climate and peer relationships, aiming for a positive direction in cognitive and emotional development.

Parental involvement in school-based sexuality education in the WHO European Region: findings from a scoping review and expert consultations

ABSTRACT There is a major political commitment at the European Union level to providing good quality sexuality education in schools. Multiple studies in the World Health Organization (WHO) European Region have demonstrated the importance of sexuality education for the health and well-being of children and adolescents. Parents’ role in providing information about sex, sexuality and relationships has also been widely recognised, though we know little about the involvement of parents in school-based sexuality education and the possible outcomes. We conducted a scoping review to systematically identify initiatives within the WHO European Region that involve parents in school-based sexuality education. We identified five programmes – four of which had been implemented in the UK and one in Turkey. In addition, online expert consultations provided professional insights and resources related to the topic. This review indicates that initiatives to involve parents in school-based SE exist within the region. Although our results refer to the benefits of involving parents in school-based sexuality education, such as improving communication between parents and children and contributing to parental trust in a school’s approach to sexuality education, it also indicates barriers, for example, lack of time on the part of parents and teachers.

Parental Involvement in Academic Performance of Girl Child in Primary Schools in Buseta Sub-County of Kibuku District, Uganda

The study examined parental participation and girl-child academic achievement in elementary schools in Buseta Sub County, Kibuku District. Cross-sectional survey research design was used for the study and data were collected via questionnaires. The findings showed that numerous socio-economic factors affected parental involvement in girl-child education in Buseta Sub County elementary schools including social class, income, parents' attitudes towards girl-child education, cultural norms, parental education, inadequate government policy, and school distance were among these factors. Based on the findings, the study calls for parents and guardians should be educated on the benefits of lowering girls’ workload at home. Furthermore, private primary schools should offer scholarships to underprivileged girls. Since parents are stakeholders in the girl child's education, School Management Committees should educate them on their roles. Parents and guardians should schedule time to help their children, especially girls, access school resources. Finally, the government should provide energy and subsidise solar power projects in rural areas to assist children in finishing their homework with parents/guardians.
