The Effect of The Sense of Belonging to the Family on Junior High School Students Learning Engagement

Abstract

The junior high school stage is the stage when students initially form career and future plans and are dominated by their academic life. Academic achievement among junior high school students is somewhat predicted by their level of learning engagement. Both internal and external variables impact middle school students, who are going through a time of fast physical and psychological growth. Among the external factors, family factors are one of the influential factors that have attracted much attention. In this study, the author took the sense of belonging to the family as the independent variable of family factors and junior high school students learning engagement as the dependent variable and used quantitative research questionnaires to assess the students' degree of family belongingness and learning engagement. The study's findings indicate a beneficial relationship between junior high school students' levels of learning engagement and their sense of family belonging, but the influence of family belongingness on learning engagement is not significant, indicating that learning engagement may be affected by other factors in the process.
