Abstract
Familiar cohesion and adaptability, parental self-regulatory inducement, children's self-concept , and academic achievement. The present study analyses the relationship between adaptability and parental cohesion and how children's behaviour towards studying and in general is affected by parental self-regulatory inducement. Furthermore, the relationship between variables like children's self-concept dimensions and academic achievement are also analysed. Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scales, Parental Inducement Self-Regulation and Self-Description Questionnaire II scales were administered in a sample of 133 secondary students. The results indicate that: 1) children's perception about self-regulatory inducement had a significant influence on the self-concept dimensions (personal, social, academic); 2) this perception was vaguely related to adaptability and familiar cohesion; and, 3) academic self-concept dimensions positively and significantly predicted academic achievement, whereas social dimensions predicted it negatively.
