Family Variables as Predictors of School Achievement: Sex Differences in Quebec Adolescents.

Deslandes, Rollande; Bouchard, Pierette; St-Amant, Jean-Claude

Canadian Journal of Education, v23 n4 p390-404 1998

Explored gender differences in school achievement and perceived parental and familial influences on school grades with 525 rural and urban secondary students. Differences in achievement and perceptions can be attributed to parents' differential socialization practices for females and males, and similarities to less sex-role stereotyping by parents. (SLD)
