Abstract

To examine the mediating role of academic self-efficacy in the influence of parenting styles on adolescent students’ learning initiative. Adolescent students were surveyed using the Parenting Styles Scale, the Learning Initiative Scale, and the Academic Self-Efficacy Scale, and 287 valid data were obtained. Learning initiative was found to be strongly connected with academic self-efficacy, and was positively and significantly correlated with the emotional warmth dimension of parenting style, while it was negatively correlated with the rejection dimension (p<0.05). Academic self-efficacy partially mediated the relationship between parenting style and learning initiative and was significantly correlated with the emotional warmth dimension (p<0.05). In the parenting style dimension, emotional warmth was also significantly and negatively associated with rejection; There was a significant positive correlation between rejection and over-protection. Rejection was a significant negative predictor of adolescent students’ learning initiative, while emotional warmth was a significant positive predictor. Parenting styles with emotional warmth contribute to children’s learning initiative and academic self-efficacy.
