This study attempted to examine the mediating role of filial piety in the relationships between parental autonomy support and control and Chinese adolescents' academic autonomous motivation. A set of questionnaires were administered to 492 adolescent students at two senior high schools in Fuzhou, China. Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling were employed to analyze the data. The results showed that reciprocal filial piety (RFP) fully mediated the relationships of parental autonomy support and behavioral control with adolescents' academic autonomous motivation. RFP did not significantly mediate the relationship between psychological control and academic autonomous motivation. Comparatively, authoritarian filial piety (AFP) did not play a significant mediating role in the relationship between the three parenting dimensions and adolescents' academic autonomous motivation. The findings provide a new perspective for understanding the relationship between parenting behaviors and Chinese adolescents' academic autonomous motivation.
本研究试图检验孝道在父母自主支持与控制和中国青少年学业自主动机之间关系中的中介作用。对中国福州两所高中的492名青少年学生进行了问卷调查。采用验证性因素分析和结构方程模型对数据进行分析。结果表明，互惠孝道（RFP）完全中介了父母自主支持和行为控制与青少年学业自主动机之间的关系。RFP并未显著中介心理控制与学业自主动机之间的关系。相比之下，权威孝道（AFP）在三种养育方式维度与青少年学业自主动机之间的关系中未发挥显著的中介作用。这些发现为理解养育行为与中国青少年学业自主动机之间的关系提供了新的视角。
