INFLUENCE OF
PARENT-CHILD COMMUNICATION PATTERNS ON SELF-ESTEEM AND ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT OF
IN- SCHOOL ADOLESCENTS
ABSTRACT
This study
investigated the influence of parent – child communication patterns on
self-esteem and academic achievement of the in-school adolescents in Enugu
Education zone. Three research questions and two null hypothesis (tested at
p≤0.5) guided the study. The study is an ex-post facto or casual comparative
researcher design. The sample for this study was made up of four hundred and
eighty senior secondary class II (SSII) students in Enugu Education Zone of
Enugu State. One intact class was randomly drawn from each of the ten schools
that were randomly selected for the study. Three instruments, namely:-
Perceived Parent – Child Communication Patterns Scale (PPCCPS), Students
Self-esteem Scale (SSES),were used to elicit the parent – child communication
patterns and the state of the in-school adolescents’ self-esteem. Information
on the academic achievement of the students were obtained from the students’
academic results. The items in the questionnaires were validated by experts in
the Faculty of Education, University of Nigeria, Nsukka. On the test of
internal consistency, the parent – child communication patterns yielded an
alpha of 0.847 for conversation (concept) orientation pattern and 0.833 for
conformity (Socio) orientation pattern respectively. The students’ self-esteem
scale on the other hand yielded an alpha of 0.874 which was established through
cronbach alpha procedure. Mean, standard deviation and t-test of Equivalent
values were used to analyze the data generated. All the null hypotheses were
tested at p ≤ 0.5 level of significance. The major findings of the study
includes, that;
* Conformity
(socio) parent – child communication pattern is dominant in Enugu State.
* Parent –
child communication patterns have significant influence on the self-esteem of
the school adolescents.
* Influence
of the parent – child communication patterns on the academic achievement of the
adolescent students is significant. Based on the findings, discussions,
conclusions, implications and recommendations of the study, suggestions for
further studies were made.
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
Background
of the Study:
Academic
achievement of students is of utmost importance to parents, educators,
concerned Nigerians and the government. This, of course, is because of the huge
impact education has on the national and economic development of the country.
Education is an investment as well as an instrument that can be used to achieve
rapid scientific, social, political, technological, cultural and economic
development in the country. Regrettably, however, the consensus of opinion all
over the country is that academic achievement of students in Nigeria is poor
(Adebule, 2004).
According to
Davison Institute (2004), achievement is a measure of quality and quantity of
success one has in the mastery of knowledge, skills or understanding.
Achievement could also involve accomplishing whatever task or goal one sets for
himself or herself. It is the attainment of a standard of excellence (Umeano,
2010).
Academic achievement, specifically, has
been described by
