　　Adolescents from low-income families in particular are more likely than their middle-class peers to underachieve （成绩不良）and to drop out of school. Previous studies have shown that a positive attitude towards school work and the support and encouragement

from their parents can help at-risk youngsters to overcome the economic barriers and lack of resources they face. Most of the evidence about the effects of parental involvement comes from research on mothers. Little is known, however, about the influence of fathers.

　　This new study is part of a larger one focusing on low-income families conducted in four middle schools in the southwestern United States. Data were analyzed from questionnaires completed by 183 sixth-graders about how optimistic and motivated they were about their schoolwork, and how they experienced their fathers. The questionnaires

were completed primarily by respondents( 被 调 查 者 ) of Mexican American, African

American and European American descent. Their maths and language arts grades were also obtained.

　　Their findings show how fathers can support their teenagers in ways that result in greater optimism, self-confidence, and, finally, higher achievement at school. These positive effects

extend to both sons and daughters, while in different ways. Experiencing their father's warmth first influences daughters' sense of optimism, and then makes their feeling more determined and certain about their academic abilities. This in turn leads to better math grades. There is a more direct link between their fathers' involvement and teenage boys' belief in

their ability to succeed on the academic front（学术前沿）. This heightened self-confidence

increased their success in English language arts classes.

　　Suizzo suggests that educators should encourage fathers to communicate warmth and acceptance to their children, because of the positive influence these emotions have on their well-being.
