Abstract: The present study aimed to explore the relationship between parental learning companionship and academic underachievement, and to further analysis the mediating effect of parent-child academic communication (attitude, method, achievement and habit communication) and the moderating effect of learning burden. There were 578 primary school students from Grade 4 to 6 (M=11.69, SD=1.08) and their parents participated this study. The results showed that:(1) parental learning companionship has a significant negative predictive effect on academic underachievement; (2) after controlling for the influence of age and gender, parent-child attitude and method communication played a full mediating effect between parental learning companionship and academic underachievement; (3) learning burden played a moderating effect on parent-child attitude communication and academic underachievement, and the improvement effect of parent-child attitude communication on academic underachievement under the condition of low learning burden is more obvious. The findings will shed some light on the influence of parental learning companionship on academic underachievement and have useful implications for interventions of academic underachievement.

Key words: parental learning companionship, academic underachievement, parent-child academic communication, learning burden, children
