From the result of the study, we know that the self-concept in math of students has the biggest influence on academic achievement of math. According to the conclusions, some related suggestions were provided for teachers, parents and future studies. Questionnaire was used as instrument for this study. A total of 322 5th and 6th graders students of effective samples were all from one of the elementary schools in Taichung Country, included the parenting styles questionnaire and the self-concept in math of elementary school students scale. The collected data were analyzed and interpreted by statistical methods of descriptive statistical, independent-sample t-test, one-way ANOVA and Pearson product-moment correlation. The following conclusions are drawn from this study. 1. The current levels of the consciousness of parenting style of high-grade elementary school students are mostly in good conditions. 2. High-grade elementary school students of different gender are significantly the same in consciousness of parenting style. 3. The self-concept in math of high-grade elementary school students is significant related to their gender, age and the consciousness of parenting style, but is non-related to their SES. 4. The academic achievement of math of high-grade elementary school students is significant related to their SES and the self-concept in math, but is non- related to their gender, age and the parenting styles.
