Abstract: Who holds the most influence in the mind and life of an adolescent? Do they really listen to what their parents say? Research shows that parents and teachers actually do hold a very influential sway in the lives of preteens and adolescents, even when it does not seem like children listen to their parents. Outside Factors on Student Success is built around a survey-based research project that hopes to identify whether parents, teachers, or friends have the greatest impact on middle school student school performance. Survey results and past research do indicate that parents and teachers hold the most sway, both with a significantly higher impact than friends. These results indicate that teachers should make a constant and diligent effort to encourage their students in the classroom, and parents should be involved in activities and progress at home. --p.2.
