The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of parental involvement with self-regulation and academic achievement of Chinese primary school pupils, in Kerian District, Perak.

The respondents were required to complete three questionnaires- Parental Involvement in Academic Achievement Among primary schools Questionnaire, Self-Regulation Formative Questionnaire, and Academic Achievement Questionnaire-measure parental involvement, self-regulation, and academic achievement respectively. Data received was then analyzed using SPSS 23.0 to find out if there is a correlation between the three variables. The difference in parental involvement among different parents’ education levels and gender differences in self-regulation were also tested. The findings indicated that the type of parental involvement among Chinese primary school pupils was Communication. The level of self-regulation of the pupils was in the intermediate level. Positive and significant correlations were found between parental involvement, self-regulation, and academic achievement. However, there were no significant gender differences in self-regulation.
