Homeschool Background, Time Use and Academic Performance at a Private Religious College
Bennett, Daniel L.; Edwards, Elyssa; Ngai, Courtney
Educational Studies, v45 n3 p305-325 2019
We study the effects of homeschool background and time use on academic performance among students at Patrick Henry College, a private religious institution with a 63-credit core classical liberal arts curriculum. Using ordinary least squares regression analysis, we examine four research questions: (1) Does time use influence academic performance? (2) Do homeschooled students perform differently than traditionally schooled students? (3) Does parental education moderate the impact of homeschooling on academic performance? (4) Does homeschooling moderate the impact of ACT scores on academic performance?
