Perceived Parental Involvement Scale

Construct: Parental Involvement

The Perceived Parental Involvement Scale (Causey, Livingston, & High, 2015) was developed to measure the perceived level of interaction between participants and their caregivers during childhood. This 10-item scale was designed for a study of self-esteem in a sample of 98 African American college students. In an effort to assess the psychometric property of the parent involvement scale, the measure was piloted to 23 participants. Alpha reliability for the measure was .90. Factor analyses were run and 68% of variance was accounted for by three factors. Participants responded to items such as “When you were a child, did your caregiver talk to you about peer pressure?” and “When you were a child, did your caregiver attend school functions that you were involved in?” Item responses ranged from 1 to 4, with 1 = never and 4 = often. Further psychometric analyses were not presented in the sample of black college students. (PsycTESTS Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)

Perceived Parental Involvement Measure

By Chen, Wei-Wen; Ho, Hsiu-Zu

2012. doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/t39568-000

Construct: Parental Involvement

Developed in the context of a study on the relation between perceived parental involvement and academic achievement in Taiwanese university students, the Perceived Parental Involvement Measure (Chen & Ho, 2012) assesses perceived parental involvement from a student perspective. A total of 12 items (using a five-point Likert scale) derived from three different scales constitute the measure. Four items were derived from Paulson's (1994) Parental Values subscale of the Parental Involvement Measure (e.g., "My parents think that succeeding in life is very important"). Two items were derived from Paulson's (1994) Parents' Interests in Schoolwork subscale of the Parental Involvement Measure (e.g., "My mother usually knows the grades I get"). Six items were derived from Wang and Heppner's (2002) Living up to Parental Expectation Inventory (LPEI) (e.g., "My parents expect me to perform better than others academically"). The estimate of overall reliability using Cronbach's alpha for Perceived Parental Involvement was 0.88. The measurement model of Perceived Parental Involvement yielded a good fit, with an overall x²(54) value of 126.01, with CFI=.95, TLI=.94, and RMSEA=.05.

Please consider a another framework from SDT.........
