The Influence Of Parents'Positive Education View On Middle School Students'Learning Engagement: A Moderated Mediating Model

Learning engagement of middle school students affects their academic performance and future development.Family and school are two important environmental factors that affect learning engagement of middle school students.Parents' positive educational view not only directly promotes students' learning engagement,but also indirectly promotes students' learning engagement by influencing their teacher's trust.School is the most important place for middle school students to study and live outside the family,and school connection could be a moderator variable.From the perspective of students,this study collected the data of parents' positive educational view,teachers' trust,school connection and learning engagement,and constructed and tested a moderated mediating model.First of all,the reliability and validity of "parents' positive educational view questionnaire" were developed by psychometrics.Secondly,teacher trust scale,school connection scale and learning engagement scale in the literature were combined,and 730 middle school students were tested collectively.We used SPSS24.0 to carry out descriptive statistics,correlation analysis,exploratory factor analysis,independent sample T-test,One-Way ANOVA,multiple regression analysis,etc.,and to test the impact of parents' positive education concept on middle school students' learning involvement and its psychological mechanism.The conclusions were as following.(1)There were significant grade differences in middle school students' parentalpositive education view,teacher trust,school connection and learning engagement.In terms of parents' positive education view,teachers' trust and school connection,junior middle school freshmen were significantly higher than senior high school freshmen and sophomores.In terms of learning engagement,junior middle school freshmen were significantly higher than junior middle school sophomores,senior high school freshmen and sophomores.In the dimension of tool value of parental positive education view,the first grade students in junior middle school were significantly higher than the second grade students in senior high school.The dependence of teacher trust on teacher dimension was significantly higher among junior middle school freshmen and sophomores and senior high school freshmen than among senior high school sophomores.The disclosure dimension was that junior high schoolfreshmen were significantly more than senior high school freshmen and sophomores.There was no significant difference in the peer support dimension of school affiliation.In addition,students in grade one of junior middle school were significantly higher than students in grade two of junior middle school,grade one of senior high school and grade two of senior high school.(2)There was significant positive correlation among all variables in this study.The variables such as parents' positive educational view,teachers' trust,school connection,learning engagement and their secondary dimensions were all significantly positively correlated.(3)Parents' positive education view positively affects middle school students'learning engagement through two paths,teacher trust plays an intermediary rolebetween parents' positive education view and middle school students' learningengagement,and school connection plays a moderating role between the two.Path 1: Parents education view positively influence students' learning engagement,and school connection as moderater variable.Path 2: Parents' positive education view influenced students' learning engagement,and teacher trust played as mediating variable,school connection as moderater variable.Comprehensive discussion and education suggestion were put forward at the end.
