Abstract

Abstract: This research aims to know the relationship between parenting styles and the academic performance of 31 students of both sexes who are studying the Third Year of unified General Baccalaureate of the Emmaus Private Educational Unit of the Durán Canton. It is descriptive and correlational research. The data have been collected through the Questionnaire of Patterns of Parental Authority applicable to children, and the school average through the grades corresponding to the first partial of the first quimestre. The results indicate that students supervised by an authoritarian style of both parents had the best academic performance, followed by students with both democratic parents, and poor academic performance was achieved by students from a home with both negligent parents; likewise, students supervised by parents with different parental styles do not differ significantly in their academic performance, which fluctuates between excellent, good, regular and deficient. It is concluded that the children of parents with the same parental style will have defined a line of academic performance according to the style under which they are governed.
