Family Communication Patterns and Academic Resilience

This study was examined the relationship between family communication patterns and academic resilience. Six-hundred-six high school students (309 girls and 297 boys) were participants of the study. Youth Development Module scale (RYDM) and Family Communication Patterns scale (FCP) were used as measures of the study. Simultaneous multiple regression of family communication patterns on academic resilience showed that “conversation” was a significant positive predictor of the “community care/ high”, “school care/ high”, “home care/ high”, “peer care”, and “school/ community meaningful”. Also, “conformity” was significant positive predictor of “school/ community meaningful” and significant negative predictor of the “community care/ high” and “home care/ high”.
