Abstract

Grade XII students face many academic difficulties from their final year demands, such as preparing for higher education and future planning. Students need to stay strong and recover from these difficulties, an ability known as academic resilience. Parental social support plays an important role in developing students' academic resilience. This study aims to find the relationship between parental social support and academic resilience among Grade XII students at MAN 5 Tangerang. This study used a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The sample consisted of 101 Grade XII students at MAN 5 Tangerang, selected using probability sampling with the cluster sampling method. The instruments used were the parental social support scale adapted by Septi from the Social Provision Scale (SPS) (⍺ = 0.871; 19 valid items) and the academic resilience scale adapted by Wijaya from the Academic Resilience Scale-30 (ARS-30) (⍺ = 0.913; 23 valid items). The result of Spearman's rho correlation showed a significance value of p = 0.001 (p < 0.05) with a correlation coefficient of 0.520. This result shows a significant positive relationship between parental social support and academic resilience with a moderate strength. Therefore, the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted and the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected, which means the higher the parental social support, the higher the students' academic resilience, and vice versa. Descriptively, most students had high parental social support (81 students; 80.2%) and high academic resilience (97 students; 96.0%). Research findings indicate that parental social support is positively and significantly associated with students' academic resilience. Parents and schools are advised to optimize the support provided to students, while future research could involve more diverse variables and subjects.
