This study investigated the role of childrens’ perception of parents (involvement and autonomy supportive) as antecedents of the attributional beliefs and also the mediational role of attributional beliefs between antecedent variables and academic achievement. 256(male and female) elementary students in Shiraz city participated in the study. Students filled out "Perceptions of Parents Scales" and "The Student Perceptions of Control Questionnaire". The results of path analysis revealed that autonomy supportive by mother was positive predictor for capacity belief (effort) and academic achievement. Mother’s involvement was negative predictor for strategy beliefs (luck) and father’s involvement was positive predictor for strategy beliefs (ability). Also, academic achievement was predicted, positively, by capacity belief (effort) and was predicted by strategy beliefs (luck) negatively. The results were an evidence for confirming any significant effects of antecedent variables on academic achievement variable would occur through the attributional beliefs.
