| dc.description.abstract | The main purpose of the study is to examine the relationship between adolescents’ perception of interparental conflict on academic performance at Don Bosco Catholic High School. It specifically looks at the relationship between academic performance and conflict property, perceived threat, and self-blame attributes of interparental conflict. Four research questions were drawn to understand this phenomenon. Children's Perception of Interparental Conflict (CPIC) and the average grade of 2022/23 was used to source the research questions. CPIC was translated into Amharic Language and pilot tested. The Cronbach alpha result of the translated test was 0.943 which signifies high reliability. Data was collected from 189 grade 11 and 12 students of Don Bosco Catholic High School. Of the 189 participants, 94 were male and 95 were female, and 35.4% of the participants were 17 years old, 48.7% were 18 years old and 15.9% were 19 years old. Frequency, Spearman’s correlation, Mann-Whitney U test, and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to analyze and describe the result of the research. The result of the study showed that grade 11 and 12 students in Don Bosco Catholic High School perceived interparental conflict in their homes. Furthermore, the results show that there is a significant relationship between conflict property and perceived threat and academic performance ( r=.937, p=.000 and r= .795, p= .000 respectively). In addition, academic performance is moderately related to the self-blame attribute of interparental conflict (r=.581, p= .000) . The result also shows that there is a significant difference between genders in the perception of interparental conflict . However, there is no significant difference between the ages of 17, 18 and 19 in the perception of interparental conflict. Based on this result conclusion and recommendation have been made. keywords: inter-parental conflict, conflict property, self-blame, threat, adolescents, academic performance | |
