This study aimed to explore the effect of parents' education anxiety on children's academic burnout, and the mediation effect of parental burnout and the moderating effect of family function. A total of 259 paired parents and children from two middle schools in central China participated in the survey. The questionnaire was conducted using the Educational Anxiety Scale, Parental Burnout Scale, Adolescent Student Burnout Inventory, and Family APGAR Index. Our results indicated that parental education anxiety had a positive predictive effect on children's academic burnout. Moreover, parental burnout played a complete mediating role between parents' education anxiety and children's academic burnout. Finally, the relationship between education anxiety and parental burnout was moderated by family function, and higher family function buffered the effect of education anxiety on parental burnout. The results suggest the mechanism of parental education anxiety on children's academic burnout, and the role of family function in alleviating parental burnout.
本研究旨在探讨家长教育焦虑对孩子学业倦怠的影响，以及父母倦怠的中介作用和家庭功能的调节作用。来自中国中部两所中学的259对家长和孩子参与了此次调查。问卷采用教育焦虑量表、父母倦怠量表、青少年学生倦怠量表和家庭APGAR指数进行。我们的结果表明，家长教育焦虑对孩子的学业倦怠有正向预测作用。此外，父母倦怠在家长教育焦虑和孩子学业倦怠之间起完全中介作用。最后，教育焦虑与父母倦怠之间的关系受到家庭功能的调节，较高的家庭功能缓冲了教育焦虑对父母倦怠的影响。研究结果揭示了家长教育焦虑对孩子学业倦怠的作用机制，以及家庭功能在缓解父母倦怠方面的作用。
