Abstract
Background and Aim: The study of behaviors that can hinder the healthy academic lifestyle of learners has always been the interest and attention of researchers. The present study investigates the mediating role of self-efficacy in the relationship between parenting styles and academically inhibiting behaviors of secondary school students. Methods: This descriptive-correlational study was conducted using the structural equation method. Its statistical population included all secondary school students in public schools in Tehran in 2022-2023.Accordingly, 407 people were included in the study by multi-stage cluster sampling method and measured using Parenting Styles Questionnaire (Baumrind, 1973), General Self-Efficacy Scale (Sherer et al.,1982), Academic Cheating Scale (Farnese et al., 2011), academic procrastination Questionnaire (Savari, 2013), and aggression Questionnaire (Williams et al., 1996). Data were analyzed by structural equation method in SPSS-23 and AMOS-24 software. Results: Based on the results of this research, the proposed model had a good fit. The results showed that Parenting Styles has a significant effect on Academically inhibiting behaviors both directly and indirectly through self-efficacy (P<0.05); and this role becomes more prominent with the mediation of self-efficacy. Conclusion: Considering the meaningful relationship between Parenting Styles and Academically inhibiting behaviors and confirming the mediating role of self-efficacy, it is suggested in this context. In order to decrease the Academically inhibiting behaviors of students, while paying attention to the Parenting Styles, focus on increasing self-efficacy in this group. In this context, it is important to empower students as well as extracurricular training sessions focusing on the aforementioned variables.
