Abstract

This study examines the motivational factors of Jewish and Arab parental involvement (PI) in a multicultural city in Israel. Participants were 473 individuals comprised of 54.6% Jewish and 45.5% Arab parents of primary school children. Findings indicate that Jewish and Arab parents most often become involved at home as a result of their children's invitation. Arab parents show higher involvement in school and the community than Jewish parents. We will elaborate on the cultural differences that affect the motivational factors of Jewish and Arab parents to become involved in their children's education.
