Abstract

Abstract: To examine the family-school cooperative mechanisms underlying the development of adolescents’ psychological literacy, a two-wave longitudinal survey was conducted among 1097 middle school students. The results showed that: 1) parent-child relationship at Time 1 (T1) positively predicted psychological literacy at Time 2 (T2), and T1 psychological literacy also positively predicted T2 parent-child relationship; 2) T1 school connectedness positively moderated the predictive effect of T1 parent-child relationship on T2 psychological literacy, such that this effect was stronger at higher levels of school connectedness. These findings reveal a reciprocal longitudinal relationship between parent-child relationship and psychological literacy and indicate that school connectedness may enhance the positive association between parent-child relationship and adolescents’ psychological literacy, providing empirical evidence for understanding the family-school collaborative mechanisms underlying adolescents’ psychological literacy development.

Key words: parent-child relationship, psychological literacy, school connectedness, adolescents, cross-lagged analysis

摘要： 为考察青少年心理素养发展的家校协同机制，对1097名中学生进行追踪调查。结果发现：(1)T1亲子关系显著正向预测T2心理素养，T1心理素养亦显著正向预测T2亲子关系；(2)T1学校联结显著正向调节T1亲子关系对T2心理素养的预测作用，学校联结水平越高，该预测作用越强。研究结果揭示了亲子关系与心理素养的纵向互惠关系，并表明学校联结具有协同增强作用，为理解青少年心理素养发展的家校协同机制提供了实证依据。
