In this…

Prior research has shown that socialization agents such as parents, peers, and teachers can play a significant role in adolescents' educational outcomes, both through direct support or indirectly via supportive attitudes that foster students' bonding to school and academic motivation. However, less is known about the effects of parent and peer…

There is a broad literature that depicts the relationship between mothers' and teachers' autonomy support on students' adjustment at school; yet the mechanisms underlying this link have received less attention. Grounded in self-determination theory (SDT), the present study aimed to address this gap in the literature by testing a model where basic…
