Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate parenting styles as a correlate of academic self-efficacy beliefs among secondary school students in Zone B Senatorial District of Benue state. The study was guided by five purposes, five research questions, and five null hypotheses.

The related literature to the study was reviewed under four main headings namely: conceptual framework, theoretical framework, empirical studies, and summary of literature review. The study adopted a correlational survey research design.

The population of this study consisted of all students in secondary schools in Zone-B Senatorial District of Benue state. Available statistics show that there are 84 secondary schools within the area, and the schools have a total population of 65,633 students at the time of this study.

A sample of 500 respondents comprising 250 boys and 250 girls in SS3 was used for the study. A multi-stage sampling technique was employed to compose the sample. The instrument for data collection was a structured questionnaire titled ‘‘Questionnaire on Parenting Styles and Students’ Academic Self-efficacy Beliefs’’ (QPSSASB).

The questionnaire consists of 62 items developed from information obtained from the literature review based on the research questions. The drafted instrument was subjected to face validation by two experts in the Department of Educational Foundations, University of Nigeria, Nsukka.

Introduction

Institutions of learning in Nigeria, in recent times, have been faced with the problem of examination malpractices. There are many reasons why students may indulge in examination malpractices.

However, the most likely singular reason for students’ indulgence in examination malpractices is the lack of confidence to write and pass the examinations themselves.

Ochugudu (2006) reported that examination malpractices that are likened to the HIV virus have devastated the education system in Nigeria and it appears to resist all forms of strategies for its eradication. One can observe that in recent times, students no longer seem to have an interest in their academic work.

The decline in students’ interest in academic pursuit obviously is due to their lack of confidence and belief that they cannot on their own be successful in academic work in schools. Ferla, Volcke, and Cai (2009) affirmed that people most of the time shy away from tasks they do not believe they will successfully accomplish.

Alternatively, they seek out activities or tasks in which they know they can be successful. Since students are convinced that they cannot successfully perform well in school examinations, they try to achieve success by way of examination malpractices in schools.
