Vinculação parental, relação pedagógica, envolvimento escolar e realização académica em alunos do ensino básico

Abstract

The overall aim of this study was to examine the association between parental attachment, pedagogical relationships, school engagement and perceived academic achievement. A total of 317 pupils from schools in Poland and Lithuania, aged between eight and 11 years old (M = 9.70, SD = 1.07), took part in the study and answered a questionnaire via an online survey, after permission had been granted by the schools and informed consent had been obtained from their guardians. The results indicated that parental attachment and the quality of the pedagogical relationship were significantly associated with perceived academic achievement and school engagement. It is concluded that the quality of the relationship with parents and teachers plays a key role in students' active participation in school and their academic success. Implications include training for education professionals and the promotion of parental education and family literacy strategies, with a focus on children's development and learning processes.
