The goal of this study was to develop and validate the Family Motivational Climate Questionnaire (FMCQ). Parental involvement (PI) affects children's academic orientations. However, PI questionnaires had not considered parenting behaviours from the perspective of motivational theories. It was therefore decided to develop the FMCQ.
570 Secondary-School students formed the sample. To validate the FMCQ, confirmatory factor analyses, reliability analysis and correlation and regression analyses were conducted. Children's attribution to parents of perceived change in motivational variables affecting achievement, were used as external criteria.
Results support most of the hypotheses either related to the FMCQ structure or to its moderating role as predictor of school achievement and of attribution to parents of changes in different motivational variables --interest, effort, perceived ability, success expectancies, resilience, and satisfaction.
The results underline the importance of acting on FMC-components in order to improve Children's motivation and achievement.
本研究旨在开发和验证家庭激励氛围问卷（FMCQ）。家长参与（PI）会影响孩子的学业取向。然而，PI 问卷并未从动机理论的角度考虑育儿行为。因此，决定开发 FMCQ。
570 名中学生组成样本。为了验证 FMCQ，进行了验证性因素分析、可靠性分析以及相关性和回归分析。儿童将感知到的影响成就的动机变量的变化归因于父母，作为外部标准。
结果支持了与 FMCQ 结构相关的大多数假设，或者支持了其作为学校成就预测因子以及对父母归因于不同动机变量变化的调节作用的假设——兴趣、努力、感知能力、成功期望、适应力和满意度。
研究结果强调了在改善儿童动机和成就方面采取 FMC 措施的重要性。
