      ab: Although parent-teacher cooperation is crucial for adolescent academic development, research has largely focused on a unidirectional collaboration-driven model (parent-teacher cooperation → adolescent), neglecting adolescent agency (child-driven or reciprocal driven), multidimensional cooperation components, and its core underlying mechanisms. The present study conceptualized parent-teacher cooperation as a multidimensional construct, including the cognitive level (i.e., parent-teacher shared expectations/beliefs about child and each other), the behavioral level (i.e., traditional parent-teacher contact, contemporary school-based parental involvement, and parent-teacher collaborative problem-solving), and the relational level (i.e., parent-teacher relationship quality). Adolescents' academic development was examined as the process/outcome indicators, including academic engagement, academic burnout, and academic achievement. Then, panel network analysis was applied to investigate the dynamic, reciprocal associations between multidimensional parent-teacher cooperation and adolescents' academic development. Specifically, it explored whether reciprocal relationships between different levels of parent-teacher cooperation and various indicators of academic development differ, and how stable these relationships remain over time. Core components of the network were identified through centrality analysis. A stratified convenience sample of 3904 Chinese adolescents (M = 12.46, SD = 2.24, 53.10% male, grades 4–5, 7–8, 10–11) was drawn from 12 schools across three Chinese cities (Guangzhou, Chengdu, Kunming). Data were collected in three waves with 6-month intervals between each wave. Using a panel network approach, this study examined cross-sectional associations, within-person contemporaneous associations, and temporal pathways, as well as identified core network components through node centrality. Cross-sectionally, parent-teacher cooperation at cognitive, relational, and problem-solving behavioral levels exhibited stable patterns: cognitive congruence and relational quality were stably and positively associated with adolescents' academic engagement, whereas behavioral collaboration (collaborative problem-solving) showed stable negative associations with academic engagement and burnout. Contemporaneously, relationship quality showed a robust within-person association with academic engagement and emerged as the most central node. Temporally, academic engagement prospectively predicted all cooperation components (child-driven model). These findings challenge conventional unidirectional models by highlighting the important role of relationship quality and the temporal driving effects of engagement. Interventions should prioritize strengthening relationship quality and fostering adolescents' academic engagement.
