在生态学视角的指导下，两个相互竞争的模型进行了测试，以研究兄弟姐妹关系质量如何直接预测或相互作用的兄弟姐妹的学业支持，以预测拉丁美洲青少年的学业动机（N = 258）。性别差异进行了研究，利用结构方程模型中的多组分析。研究结果表明，来自兄弟姐妹的学业支持对男生和女生的学业动机都有显著的预测作用。此外，兄弟姐妹关系质量与女生的学业动机有直接关系。研究结果强调了研究兄弟姐妹在拉丁裔青少年的学习动机中所起作用的重要性。
Guided by an ecological perspective, two competing models were tested to examine how sibling relationship quality directly predicted or interacted with academic support from siblings to predict Latino adolescents' academic motivation (N = 258). Gender differences were examined utilizing multiple group analysis in structural equation modeling. Findings indicated that academic support from siblings was a significant predictor of both boys' and girls' academic motivation. In addition, sibling relationship quality was directly related to girls' academic motivation. Findings underscore the importance of examining the role that siblings play in Latino adolescents' academic motivation.
