Compared adolescents'
and parents' perceptions of maternal and paternal demandingness,
responsiveness, and parental involvement with schooling. Found that
adolescents' reports of parenting correlated only moderately with
parents' reports. Adolescents', but not parents', reports of parenting
predicted students' achievement outcome, with parental involvement
significantly predicting achievement apart from dimensions of parenting
style. (HTH)
