In a sample of 527 academically at-risk youth, we investigated trajectories of friends' and parents' school involvement across ages 12-14 and the joint contributions of these trajectories to adolescents' age 15 school engagement and academic achievement. Girls reported higher levels of friends' and parents' school involvement than boys. Both parents' and friends' school involvement declined across ages 12-14. Combined latent growth models and structural equation models showed effects of the trajectories of friends' and parents' school involvement on adolescents' age 15 school engagement and academic achievement, over and above adolescents' prior performance. These effects were additive rather than interactive. Strategies for enhancing parent involvement in school and students' affiliation with peers who are positively engaged in school are discussed.
在一个由 527 名学业有风险的青少年组成的样本中,我们调查了朋友和家长在 12-14 岁期间的学校参与轨迹,以及这些轨迹对青少年在 15 岁时的学校参与度和学业成绩的共同贡献。女孩报告的朋友和家长学校参与度高于男孩。父母和朋友的学校参与度都随着年龄的增长而下降。综合潜在增长模型和结构方程模型表明,朋友和家长的学校参与轨迹对青少年在 15 岁时的学校参与度和学业成绩有影响,这些影响超出了青少年之前的表现。这些影响是累加的,而不是交互的。讨论了增强家长参与学校和学生与积极参与学校的同伴建立联系的策略。
