요약Parent engagement in education has been shown to have positive effects on students' academic and social/emotional success. However, much of the research has focused on younger students. Less attention has been given to parent engagement at the secondary level, especially with respect to how parents choose to engage, how adolescents perceive this engagement, and whether adolescents want this engagement. The purpose of this study was twofold. First, two measures were developed to examine adolescents' preferences for and perceptions of parent engagement around home-based, school-based, and communication-based engagement behaviors. Second, the aim was to further the engagement literature by examining: 1) the extent to which adolescents' perceptions of the quality of their relationships with their parents (PARQ) impact their perceptions of parent engagement, and 2) the mediating role of adolescents' preferences for parent engagement and their invitations to parents for engagement on adolescents' perceptions of parent engagement. Three hypotheses were tested. First, adolescents' perceptions of the quality of their relationships with their parents were hypothesized to be positively related to adolescents' perceptions of parent engagement across home-based, school-based, and communication-based engagement behaviors. Second, adolescents' preferences for parent engagement were hypothesized to mediate the relationship between parent-adolescent relationship quality and adolescents' perceptions of parent engagement. Third, adolescents' invitations to their parents for engagement were expected to further mediate the relationship between parent-adolescent relationship quality and adolescents' perceptions through adolescents' preferences for engagement. Adolescents from a high school in an urban school district were surveyed and results were analyzed using path analysis. Results provided evidence for the validity of an instrument for measuring adolescents' preferences for and perceptions of parent engagement around home-based, school-based, and communication-based engagement behaviors. Adolescents' preferences for parent engagement mediated the relationship between parent-adolescent relationship quality and adolescents' perceptions of parent engagement. Adolescents' invitations for parent engagement further mediated the relationship between parent-adolescent relationship quality, adolescents' preferences, and adolescents' perceptions. Parent engagement remains important at the secondary level, though parent behaviors appear to change to match the developmental needs of students. While research supports that adolescents desire greater autonomy as they get older, the results from this study suggest that the desire for autonomy and continuing parental engagement in education are not mutually exclusive. Adolescents who perceive a strong relationship with their parents prefer more communication-based engagement behaviors than home-based and school-based engagement. Implications for practice and future research are discussed.
