Parental educational practices and their implications on variables such as social phobia and academic performance are becoming increasingly interesting to researchers working in the Psychology field, due to the fact that these variables may influence the academic and social lives of children and adolescents. The aim of this research is to study the relationship between parental educational practices, social phobia and academic performance in adolescents. The study was conducted with 285 individuals (146 female and 139 male) of the 7th and 8th grades between the ages of twelve and fourteen. We used: demographic data questionnaire, QLP-A to evaluate parental educational practices, SPAI-C to evaluate social phobia. A questionnaire was also used to check for academic performance. It has been noted that there is a higher incidence of social phobia in individuals of the female gender. It has also been noted that teenagers whose parents give autonomy and care, show a tendency to have a better academic performance and also less probability of presenting social phobia. Teenagers whose parents give protection have a tendency to have social phobia and worse academic performance
