Predicting the Relationship between Student’s Parent’s Motivation And Their Participation in Their Children’s Education based on the Hoower-Demsey and Sandler Model

In the present research, the relationship between parents' motivation and their participation in children's education was predicted. The statistical population of the study is the parents of 306 public high school girls in the city of Urmia. The statistical sample size was calculated according to Cochran's formula of 170 people. The instrument used in the study was a completed version of the ECLS-K questionnaire developed in 2005 by Hoover-Demsey and Sandler et al. The validity of the instrument was confirmed by experts and researchers in this field. The reliability of the instrument was calculated by Cronbach's alpha method (α = 0.78), which is acceptable. Multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the results of the research questionnaire. The results showed that among the motivational components of parents such as motivational beliefs (self-efficacy and role construction), parents' perception of invitation Received letters (school invitation, teacher invitation and invitation (request for help) students) and perception of the field of life (skills-knowledge and energy-time) inviting and requesting the strongest students It is variable in predicting and explaining parental involvement. Therefore, it seems that the use of invitations for students, which is one of the most important predictors of parental involvement, should be considered more by planners.
