Abstract/Executive Summary
Due to COVID-19, remote learning gave way to implementing modular and online setup of acquiring education. Several studies resulted in the efficacy of parent's commitment to the achievement of their children academically. The research seeks to determine the relationship between parental engagement and their psychological antecedent with the use of a 4-point Likert Scale intervened by parent’s demographic profile in terms of gender, age, type of modular learning, number of children enrolled in S.Y. 2020 to 2021, and educational background. Validation of the questionnaire was calculated using Cronbach's alpha coefficient formula through the SPSS software. The computed alpha coefficient was 0.96, which is acceptable reliability. Additionally, with 301 parents, researchers evaluated the gathered data through Pearson Correlation and Regression analysis. The results implied that between the parent's psychological antecedent and engagement in their children's remote learning, parent's psychological behavior influences change in their commitment and determination to guide and teach their children amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. It has also been acknowledged through regression analysis that parental engagement mechanisms are best predicted by the demographic's profile of parents, specifically concerning gender and their children’s remote learning modalities and their psychological antecedent amidst the pandemic. Hence, future researchers must employ longitudinal studies to determine parent's display of behavior during and after the remote learning environment for further investigation.

Behaviors as Predictors of Reinforcement: Investigating Parent’s Psychological Antecedent and Parental Engagement Mechanisms in Distance Learning
