Abstract

ABSTRACT: Triarchic model of grit (TMG) has conceptualized grit as individuals' tendency to demonstrate perseverance of effort, consistency of interests, and adaptability to situations . Past studies demonstrated that TMG dimensions predict positive outcomes such as well-being and academic success. However, there is limited research demonstrating the role of social factors in TMG. The current study explored the associations of parenting styles and perceived filial piety with dimensions of grit in Hong Kong undergraduate students. Results showed that only authoritative parenting style positively predicted adaptability to situations . This study underscores the role that parenting plays in sustained motivation to accomplish long-term goals.
