A Performance Model for Academic Achievement in Early Adolescent Boys.

DeBaryshe, Barbara D.; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v29 n5 p795-804 Sep 1993

This study followed 206 adolescent boys and their families from the fourth through eighth grade to test a model for conduct-related school failure. Results indicated that low parental academic achievement was associated with ineffective discipline practices and child antisocial behavior in the sixth grade and that ineffective discipline had a direct and negative effect on boys' seventh-grade academic achievement.
