Resumo: Background: Prior research has shown that parents help their children manage homework (i.e. environment, time, motivation and emotion management), especially in elementary school. However, researchers have not developed and validated a scale focused on those dimensions. Method: The purpose of the present study is to validate the Parental Homework Management Scale (PHMS) for parents of elementary school children in the domain of mathematics. A sample of 2,118 parent-child dyads was split randomly into two groups to conduct the analysis in two stages: (i) exploratory factor analysis on Group 1 and (ii) confi rmatory factor analysis on Group 2. Results: PHMS is comprised of two distinct but related factors (i.e. environment-time and motivation-emotion management). Results further indicated that the PHMS was positively related to homework self-regulation and positive emotions, and negatively related to math achievement. Contrary to expectations, no relationship was found between PHMS and amount of student homework completed. Conclusions: The scale revealed good psychometric quality.

Antecedentes: investigaciones previas revelaron que los padres ayudan a sus hijos a gestionar las tareas para casa (i.e., el ambiente, el tiempo, la motivación y las emociones), especialmente en la escuela primaria. Sin embargo, la investigación no ha construido y validado una escala enfocada en esas dimensiones. Método: el presente estudio valida el Parental Homework Management Scale (PHMS) para padres de niños de escuela primaria en el dominio de las matemáticas. Una muestra de 2,118 díadas padres-hijos se dividió aleatoriamente en dos grupos para realizar el análisis en dos etapas: (i) análisis factorial exploratorio en el Grupo 1 y (ii) análisis factorial confi rmatorio en el Grupo 2. Resultados: PHMS está compuesto por dos factores distintos pero relacionados (i.e., gestión del ambiente-tiempo y de la motivación-emoción). Los resultados indicaron además que el PHMS se relacionó positivamente con la autorregulación y las emociones positivas en las tareas para casa, y se relacionó negativamente con el rendimiento en matemáticas. Contrario a las expectativas, no se encontró relación entre PHMS y la cantidad de tareas completadas por los estudiantes. Conclusiones: la escala ha revelado una buena calidad psicométrica.This work was supported by Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT) and the Portuguese Ministry of Science (UID/PSI/01662/2013).
