Abstrakt: Different parental socialization practices tend to predict the academic achievement of European- and Asian-American adolescents. This study explored the processes whereby parental socialization practices lead w Filipino adolescents' academic achievement. A sample of Filipino students from San Francisco (N = 535) of both genders (ages 11-19) completed questionnaire measures of a proposed structural equation model with the causal sequence: authoritative academic socialization, importance of family reputation, attribution of success, student involvement in studies and grade-point average (GPA). Structural equation analyses supported the hypothesized model with GPA as the dependent variable: Family reputation and internal attribution were found w mediate the relation between authoritative parenting and GPA.
