Resumen

The involvement of parents in their children's reading activities is considered a primary parenting duty. Additionally, parental involvement in shaping their adolescent's reading culture through regular storytelling sessions, interactive book discussions, and creating a family that values literacy and active engagement fosters the development of early reading abilities among preschoolers, increases self-esteem, and strengthens parent-child relationships. This research primarily aims to analyze the impact of Parental Involvement (PI) on the improvement of reading activities and skills in primary school students. In the field of education, it is imperative to acknowledge the significant influence of PI on the improvement of children's cognitive abilities in relation to reading attitudes, comprehensive skills, and academic achievement. The researcher utilized a quantitative research design to examine the effects of PI by conducting Epstein's (2002) Framework of Six Types of Involvement survey questionnaire. A total of twenty-five research participants included in the study were the parents or guardians of the adolescents. However, quantitative outcomes indicated that parental involvement in children's activities has significantly enhanced their reading habits and attitudes. This study made a valuable contribution to educational institutions and parental organizations by highlighting the potential of parental participation in enhancing the academic and comprehensive competencies of primary school students.
