The purpose of the study is to explore the correlates among two types of helicopter parenting, intelligence beliefs and two types of help-seeking behavior (i.e., executive and instrumental help-seeking), to understand the difference of helicopter parenting perceived by students on gender. In analyzing the correlates, hands-on making course is most possible to account for potentially confounding learning setting to identify unique variance attributable to help-seeking behavior in junior school. Thus, 559 questionnaires wereusefully returns from hands-on making courses in 3 junior high schools. Data were analyzed by confirmatory factor analysis, t-test, and structural equation modeling. The results of this study indicated that two types of perceived helicopter parenting of participants (i.e., academic and life hovering) were positively related to their entity belief of intelligence. Participants’ entity belief of intelligence was positively related to their executive help seeking, but negatively related to instrumental help seeking. In gender difference, this study revealed that male participants perceived higher helicopter parenting than those female participants did. The implication of this study suggested that parents should not hover their children too much that affect the increase of their children’s entity belief of intelligence and would hinder their children’swork or study dependently consequently by taking executive help-seeking often.
