Abstract

A student's academic success is influenced by both internal and external factors. Internal factors include learning motivation and emotional state, while external factors encompass family circumstances and parents' economic situation. This study aimed to investigate how socioeconomic factors, including parental education, type of employment, and family income, influence student learning outcomes. The study focuses on understanding the relationship between parents' socioeconomic conditions and the learning achievements of third-grade elementary students. This quantitative study employed a correlational approach. The population consisted of 120 third-grade elementary students, with a sample of 40 students selected through Stratified Random Sampling. The multiple linear regression analysis revealed an Adjusted R squared value of 96.90%, indicating a strong relationship between the independent variables and student learning outcomes. The t-test revealed that the significant factors influencing student learning achievement were family income, parental employment type, and the learning process. In conclusion, the study confirms a significant relationship between parents' socioeconomic conditions and the learning outcomes of third-grade elementary students. Family support, including economic stability and involvement in the learning process, plays a critical role in enhancing student performance. Schools and governments should create targeted programs to support students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ensuring more equitable learning opportunities.
