초록

The purpose of this study was to explore the role of academic engagement as a mediating factor between grit and academic achievement in middle school students, and to verify the moderating effect of parents’ positive parenting attitude in the effect of grit on academic achievement. To this end, the data from the “Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey 2018” conducted by the National Youth Policy Institute(NYPI) were analyzed. SPSS PROCESS macro model No. 4, No. 1 and No. 5 were used for analysis. Through this, the mediating effect, the moderating effect, and the conditional direct effect among the variables were verified. Grit had a significant effect on academic achievement, and the mediating effect of academic engagement on these relationships was significant. In the relationship between grit and academic achievement, parents’ positive parenting attitude showed a moderating effect to promote academic achievement. This study is significant in that it discovered non-cognitive mechanisms and pathways that can promote the academic achievement of middle school students.
