| Summary: | The study is about the achievement motivation and academic performance of children of politicians, ages 18-21, still attending school, with regards to the parenting style of their politician-parents which was classified into democratic, autocratic, and permissive. The test used in measuring the achievement motivation was the trait survey as for the academic performance, their GPA of the previous term was used as a basis and for the parenting style, the method of discipline questionnaire was used. Among the three styles of parenting, the democratic was the most frequently used, while permissive was second, and the third, autocratic. The achievement motivation and academic performance of the participants were both average. In getting the correlation of achievement motivation and academic performance, using Pearson R, it was gathered that the relationship was weak with r = 15, in observing the effect of parenting style on achievement motivation and academic performance. The method of analysis of variance was used. The results showed that it was not significant. |
