DEL ANGEL-CASTILLO, Martha Catalina    TORRES-HERRERA, Moisés. The lack of academic achievement in the new family structure models. []. , 7, 2, pp.403-409. ISSN 1657-9267.

The following is an article of discussion associated with research whose objective is to present a position about the influence of family structures on student’s academic achievement. It includes a review on traditional and present family structure models in the United States, Latin America and especially in Mexico. The article presents the discussion as to how the internal family structure has been transforming due to external changes. This discussion leads us to think that there is a strong co-relation between the family models where students are raised and the level of academic achievement they might obtain throughout their student’s life.
