Abstract
Research has addressed the impact of parental involvement among students. However, there is minimal information on how parental involvement affects racially and ethnically diverse students. Findings indicated no significant difference between parents’ and students’ perceptions of parental involvement in seven of nine domains. Seven of nine domains of parental involvement predicted student academic motivation. Gender was not a significant moderator. Findings may be used by educators to promote certain types of parental involvement to enhance students’ academic motivation and parent-child relationships.
