Abstract(s)
O envolvimento parental, tem sido compreendido como uma peça fundamental no
sucesso dos jovens, vários estudos têm procurado compreender as variáveis
demográficas e psicológicas que estão relacionadas com níveis de envolvimento
parental.
Neste estudo procurámos avaliar se as concepções de responsabilidade dos pais na
escolaridade dos filhos estavam relacionadas com as práticas de envolvimento parental,
preocupámo-nos também em perceber se o género e o nível de escolaridade dos pais
estavam associados com as concepções de responsabilidade e as práticas de
envolvimento. Outro objectivo deste trabalho foi o de investigar se a distribuição da
responsabilidade nas tarefas educativas a nível intra-familiar variam consoante o género
dos pais.
Foram analisados 145 questionários de pais e mães, de alunos a frequentar o 5º e
6º anos de escolaridade.
Os resultados do estudo mostraram a existência de relação entre as concepções de
responsabilidade dos pais na escolaridade e as diferentes práticas de envolvimento. As
práticas de envolvimento estudadas, compreendiam as áreas da mediação social e
cultural, comunicação sobre a escolaridade, apoio a tarefas escolares e participação em
eventos escolares e extra-escolares. O género dos pais mostrou estar relacionado com as
práticas de apoio às tarefas escolares. Enquanto que, o nível de escolaridade dos pais
mostrou estar relacionado com as práticas de comunicação sobre a escolaridade do
adolescente. No que se refere à distribuição da responsabilidade nas tarefas educativas a
nível intra-familiar, verificou-se que, de uma forma geral, existe uma partilha de
responsabilidade entre as figuras parentais.
Parental involvement has long understood as a fundamental key in children success, many studies try to understand status variables and psychological variables associated with parental involvement. In this study we examined the relation between parents` role construction and parents` involvement practices, we also analyze the association between status variables, gender and parents` educational level, and parents` role construction and parents` involvement practices. Other goal of this study was to assess if parental responsibility in educational tasks varied with gender. We obtained survey responses from 145 fathers and mothers of students in grades 5º and 6º. Results showed a relation between parents` role construction and parents` involvement practices. Parents` involvement practices include social and cultural mediation, communication about school, schoolwork support and participation in school and extra-school events. Gender was related with schoolwork support practice. In the other way, parents` educational level was related with communication about school practice. Finally, regarding the distribution of the responsibilities in educational tasks we found that, overall, there is a shared responsibility between the parental figures.
