Data obtained by a questionnaire were analyzed to explore relationships between variables related to Turkish childrens academic performance. The results indicated that parents' education level, sociometric measures of insecure attachment, and social efficacy were significant predictors of grade point average. Parents' education also emerged as a significant predictor of insecure attachment and social efficacy. In addition, endorsement of secure and insecure attachment prototypes were significant predictors of social efficacy and perceptions of control. Results are discussed within the framework of contextual models of development.

FAMILY BACKGROUND, SOCIOMETRIC PEER NOMINATIONS, AND PERCEIVED CONTROL AS PREDICTORS OF ACADEMIC-ACHIEVEMENT
HORTACSU, N; UNER, H (Informa UK Limited, 1993-12-01)
This study investigated relationships between measures of family background, sociometric nominations, perceptions of control, and academic achievement in a sample of Turkish children.

Perceptions of control emerged as significant predictors of popularity, but not of rejection measures. Parental educational background emerged as a significant predictor of perceptions of control. Both parental...

Employing the appropriate learning strategies may have a relationship with anxiety during the process of statistics learning. Thus, the present study investigated multivariate relationships between self-regulated learning strategies and statistical anxiety using canonical correlation analysis (CCA). Three hundred twenty Turkish college students responded to the Motivated Strategies for Learnin...

Questionnaires covered needs related to crucial issues of adolescence, namely, relatedness and autonomy/individuation. Participants were 12- to 17-year-old boys and girls from intact families. Cross-cultural differences in ascribed importance of needs related to some aspects of relatedness...

A multigroup analysis of family climate and volunteering: The mediating role of parental conversations in emerging adulthood
Gönül, Buse; IŞIK BAŞ, HATİCE; Güneş, Seren (Informa UK Limited, 2020-07-01)
The current study aims to examine the predictive role of family climate (relatedness in family, cognitive cohesion, and intergenerational authority) in volunteering through conversations with parents in emerging adulthood while also considering the effects of gender. A total of 507 emerging adults reported their participation in volunteering, perceptions of family climate, and frequency of conversations with their parents about volunteering. Results of the structural equation modeling showed that even thoug...
