Introduction While it has been shown that parents' aspirations positively impact a child's academic performance, the potential negative impact of overaspiration has not been the topic of much study. In this study, researchers investigated the relationship between parental aspiration and children's performance in math. The researchers suggest that overaspiration may have a negative impact on children's achievement. Participants Participants (n = 3,530) were a part of the Project for the Analysis of Learning and Achievement in Mathematics (PALMA) and were drawn from German schools. The sample was representative in terms of demographics (gender, urban versus rural, and SES). Participants were selected from the three types of German schools: lower-track schools, intermediate-track schools, and higher-track schools. The sample was 49.7% female. The personal information of participants was kept private and secure. Participants were assessed annually from grades 5 to 10. Each year students completed a math achievement test at the end of the year on the same day. Parents also completed a questionnaire. Method Participants completed a test of mathematics achievement each year for six years in a row. The assessments included multiple-choice and short-response items. There were two versions of the achievement test administered each year. Students completed one of the two versions of the test. Some items were included on both versions of each test to help maintain consistency across test versions. Parents completed a questionnaire each year that consisted of two items. They responded to the aspiration question: "We want our daughter/our son to get the following grade in mathematics." They responded on a scale that aligns with grading in German schools: 1 = excellent to 6 = unsatisfactory. They then responded to the expectation question: "We believe that our daughter/our son can get the following grade in mathematics." They responded on a scale that aligns with grading in German schools: 1 = excellent to 6 = unsatisfactory. Results and Discussion Note that for the purpose of data analysis, scores were reversed so that 6 = excellent and 1 = unsatisfactory. Results showed that parental aspiration decreased slightly over time. Math achievement increased over time in a statistically significant way.The following table shows parental aspiration scores and math achievement scores of students, grades 5 through 12. Parental aspiration (mean, standard deviation) Math achievement (mean, standard deviation) 5th grade 4.87, 0.63 100.0, 15.0 6th grade 4.79, 0.65 111.1, 16.5 7th grade 4.72, 0.68 115.3, 17.3 8th grade 4.69, 0.71 125.7, 18.6 9th grade 4.69, 0.73 131.0, 20.0 10th grade 4.70, 0.75 147.0, 15.4 The data was analyzed by group. Parental aspiration had a statistically significant positive effect on achievement across genders and socioeconomic status (SES). It also had a statistically significant positive effect on achievement for children who attended higher-track schools. However, the positive effect did not reach significance for children attending lower-track and intermediate-track schools. Analysis related to overaspiration relied on the following calculation: overaspiration = aspiration minus expectation. Overaspiration was indicated if the result of aspiration minus expectation was positive. The mean of overaspiration scores showed a slight decrease over time: 0.35, 0.35, 0.34, 0.32, 0.27, 0.20. The pattern suggests that parental aspiration decreased over time while expectation remained stable. The negative relationship between parental overaspiration and math achievement was significant. Overaspiration was shown to blunt growth. The negative impact of overaspiration on achievement was consistent across genders, SES, and all school tracks. The effect, however, was significantly larger for those who attended higher-track schools. This suggests that the negative impact of overaspiration may be more significant for those who attend higher-track schools. The researchers suggest that further study on parental overinvolvement or excessive control may help determine why aspiration supports mathematical achievement while overaspiration does not.
