Book excerpt: Akademische Arbeit aus dem Fachbereich Soziologie - Beziehungen und Familie, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: This paper deals with different kinds of parenting styles. Parenting styles have been a key predictor of a student’s success and academic achievement. The different parenting styles consist of various factors such as parental attitudes and behaviors towards their children and the emotional climate in which such attitudes and behaviors are expressed. Parents are arguably one of the most influential people in a child’s life; therefore, parenting styles influence numerous factors of a child’s life, including the academic performance of adolescents. The objective of this study is to analyze how the parenting tendencies of Latino parents affect their children’s academic performance answering the question: How do parenting styles affect the academic performance of Latino adolescents? The study of development, especially that of adolescents and their education is vital in aiding students in their educational endeavors. Having educated students provides the world with literate, competent members of society.

Book Synopsis The Impact of Family Type and Socieconomic Status on Psychological Well-Being and Academic Performance Among Latino Adolescents by : Eloina Hoffman
Download or read book The Impact of Family Type and Socieconomic Status on Psychological Well-Being and Academic Performance Among Latino Adolescents written by Eloina Hoffman and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unprecedented change in family structure has had a great impact in Latino families during recent years. As marriage declines, single-parent families continue to increase over time. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of family type and socioeconomic status on psychological well-being and academic performance among Latino adolescents. Using the California Health Interview Survey (CHIS 2013-2014) Adolescent Survey, this study examined Latino adolescents (n=313, age range= 12-17). Data collected from this study was analyzed using descriptive statistics including frequency, mean, standard deviation, and inferential statistics, such as the independent sample T-Test, correlations and logistic regression. This study found that family type does have an impact on the psychological well-being of Latino youth. This study also found that there is a significant relationship between socioeconomic status and academic performance. However, Latino youth living in single-parent families did not report lower academic performance when compared to adolescents living in two-parent families. Overall, there needs to be greater emphasis in improving the well-being of Latino adolescents living in single parent families. This particular study suggest the importance of implementing effective intervention programs, policies and education for social workers, clinicians, and teachers working directly with adolescents raised in single parent households.

This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook presents current research on children and youth in ethnic minority families. It reflects the development currently taking place in the field of social sciences research to highlight the positive adaptation of minority children and youth. It offers a succinct synthesis of where the field is and where it needs to go. It brings together an international group of leading researchers, and, in view of globalization and increased migration and immigration, it addresses what aspects of children and youth growing in ethnic minority families are universal across contexts and what aspects are more context-specific. The Handbook examines the individual, family, peers, and neighborhood/policy factors that protect children and promote positive adaptation. It examines the factors that support children’s social integration, psychosocial adaptation, and external functioning. Finally, it looks at the mechanisms that explain why social adaptation occurs.

Book Synopsis Familial, Academic, and Interpersonal Predictors of Attributional Style in Latino Youth by : Niloofar Fallah
Download or read book Familial, Academic, and Interpersonal Predictors of Attributional Style in Latino Youth written by Niloofar Fallah and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Objective: This study examined associations between family and school factors, attributional style and depressive symptoms in Latino adolescents. Familism and school social support were examined as moderators of the associations between parent-adolescent conflict, academic performance, and peer discrimination with attributional style. The association between context-specific attributional style (attributions in interpersonal vs. achievement domains) and depressive symptoms were also examined. Method: Self-reported ratings of parent-adolescent conflict, familism, academic performance, peer discrimination, school social support, attributional style and depressive symptoms were obtained from a sample of 170 middle school and high school Latino students. Results: Parent-adolescent conflict and peer discrimination significantly predicted maladaptive attributional style (overall), interpersonal attributional style, and achievement attributional style. Familism and school social support were not found to moderate these associations. Maladaptive interpersonal attributional style significantly predicted greater depressive symptoms. Conclusions: Results suggest parent-adolescent conflict and peer discrimination may significantly influence the development of maladaptive attributional styles among Latino youth. Discussion surrounds interpretation of these effects within the context of the extant literature on the etiology and treatment of depressive symptoms in Latino youth."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to better understand the specific mechanisms that may hinder high educational achievement among Latino students, this study explored the impact of parental working hours on parental involvement and school outcomes across three generations of Mexican-American youth. Results from a longitudinal data set revealed that constrained parental availability, related to increased working hours, had an impact on the amount of parental involvement for third generation students, but not on their academic outcomes. For first-generation students, parental monitoring (a form of parental involvement) was a significant positive predictor for grade 8 and 10 reading scores as well as high school completion among second-generation students. Results from this study suggest that increased parental monitoring may be beneficial for higher academic outcomes for first and second generation students. Future research will need to investigate what types of parental involvement may influence third generation students.
Book Synopsis Familial Stress, Latino Parental Involvement, and Adolescent Academic Socialization by : Daisy Estela Camacho
Download or read book Familial Stress, Latino Parental Involvement, and Adolescent Academic Socialization written by Daisy Estela Camacho and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Given the size and rapid growth of Latinos--and that they tend to fall behind academically--it is important to understand factors that contribute to achievement. This dissertation seeks to contextualize parental academic behaviors by examining the role of stress and family dynamics in their involvement. The first study examines how stress may interfere with the academic involvement Mexican-origin parents provide for their adolescents. Parents of ninth and tenth grade students from two high schools in Los Angeles (N = 428) completed quantitative interviews. Results revealed that chronic stress (i.e., financial strain) predicted less involvement at school--and that acute stressors (i.e., major family life events) predicted less involvement at home, even after controlling for demographics and the other stressor in each model. Furthermore, this study found that these associations were mediated by lower levels of emotional support to adolescents, but not conflict in the home or parental distress (i.e., depressive symptoms and somatic symptoms). Findings suggest that the reason that stress is associated with lower levels of involvement is because stress may limit the positive relationship quality between parents and adolescents. The second study examined parental involvement in organized after-school activities--as these are beneficial to academic achievement, but Latino students tend to be under-involved. Latino adolescents and their caretakers (N = 154) sampled from four middle schools across the Phoenix-area completed quantitative interviews. Linear regressions controlling for demographics and achievement revealed that parental support--instrumental support, verbal encouragement and activity involvement (e.g., talking to the activity leader)--was linked with adolescent reports of motivation and participation in their organized after-school activity. Furthermore, parental support was associated with higher adolescent motivation in families that reported more chaos--suggesting the importance of parental involvement, especially in disadvantaged families. By acknowledging the salient role of family and stressors in the lives of Latino families, this dissertation contributes to a more complete understanding of the ways families strive to develop academic resilience
