Multiple Regression test results show that parents' attention and learning discipline simultaneously affect the English learning achivement with the value of F = 43.311 and p ≤ 0.05. Adjusted R² value = 0.197 means that the variant of the English learning achivement variable could be predicted by parents' attention and learning discipline 19.7%. Meanwhile, according to the partial correlation analysis, parents' attention correlates with English learning achievement (r = 0.385 and p ≤ 0.05).
