Abstract

This study used data from the China Education Panel Survey (CEPS) for the 2014–2015 school year with eighth-grade students as the survey respondents. And use descriptive statistics and OLS regression analysis to analyze the effects of other factors on children's academic performance when both parents and children are at high educational expectations. The results show: (1) The higher confidence parents have in their children's future, the children have better academic performance. (2) The higher pressure children experience from their parents’ educational expectations, students would have worse their academic performance. (3) The higher level of parental requirements for children’s academic performance, the higher scores students would obtain. (4) The higher frequency of parents having dinner with their children, the higher academic performance student could reach. (5) The higher frequency of parents going out with their children to visit museums, zoos, science museums, etc., the academic performances of their children would be lower. (6) The higher frequency of parents going out with their children to movies, shows, sports games, etc. has no significant effect on students’ academic performance.
