This involvement can be even more crucial for students whose families are living in poverty, as it can act as a protective factor for them. Although the importance of parental involvement has been recognized in regard to achievement, there is currently a lack of literature that uses both parent and teacher perspectives of parental involvement. There is also a lack of literature to determine if the relationship between parent- involvement and achievement is moderated by poverty level. This study’s research questions include: (1) Is there a relationship between parent-perceived parental involvement and achievement? (2) Is there a relationship between teacher-perceived parental involvement and achievement? (3) To what degree do both parent-perceived parental involvement and teacher- perceived parental involvement predict achievement, and are these relationships moderated by poverty level? Data for this study were gathered through the Butler County Success Program, which provides services to economically disadvantaged students attending 36 schools in a Midwestern state. Collected data included levels of parent-perceived parental involvement, levels of teacher-perceived parental involvement, poverty level, and student achievement scores in mathematics. This study used parental-involvement indicators that assessed both the parent’s and teacher’s level of communication with each other. Analyses revealed a positive and significant correlation between both parent-perceived and teacher-perceived parental involvement and student mathematics achievement scores. Analyses also revealed that both parent- and teacher- perceived parental involvement significantly predict math achievement scores, and that relationship is not moderated by the students’ level of poverty. This suggests that parent- and teacher-perceived parental involvement and student poverty level can predict student mathematics achievement scores, but the relationship between parent involvement and achievement scores does not differ as a result of poverty level. 2018-06-25 English text Miami University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1529675587893696 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=miami1529675587893696 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
