performed significantly better on the reading (F [1,<br />

=14.13; p = < 0.001).<br />
Treatment was for 1 year and involved 9<br />
workshops, lasting 90 minutes, on topics of book<br />
reading and school success, book reading even in<br />
grade 1, library visit, playing with letters, functional<br />
reading and writing, writing plays, and so on.<br />

Meta-analysis of<br />
25 studies<br />
representing over<br />
130,000 students<br />
Positive relationship between PI and academic<br />
achievement (r = +0.25). Lower relationships with<br />
math (r = 0.18) and reading (r = 0.18).<br />
Specific types of involvement had more significant<br />
relationships than others. For example:<br />
Aspirations for education, r = 0.39<br />
Communication, r = 0.19<br />
Supervision, r = 0.09<br />
Participation, r = 0.32<br />
Strongest effects resulted when GPA (or a global<br />
Specific types of family<br />
involvement)have<br />
different relationships to<br />
different outcomes. In<br />
this study, aspirations for<br />
education had the<br />
strongest relationship<br />
with achievement, while<br />
supervision (for<br />
example, rules about TV<br />
viewing) had the<br />
weakest relationship.<br />
