The current study aimed to develop a measure of anticipated teacher–student relationship quality to be used with preservice teacher populations that is operationally similar to a measure commonly used with inservice teachers (i.e., short-form of the Student–Teacher Relationship Scale; Pianta, 2001). To date, teacher–student relationship quality has been a construct studied solely with inservice teacher populations. Two hundred and thirteen preservice teachers participated in the current study. Results suggest that the developed measure of anticipated teacher–student relationship with preservice teachers demonstrated response trends similar to the measure used with inservice teachers except that preservice teachers anticipate more conflict with future students than inservice teachers report with current students. Additionally, results show the developed measure fits the two factor structure of the original scale and exhibits concurrent validity via associations with teacher self-efficacy beliefs. Implications for measuring anticipated teacher–student relationship quality within teacher education programs and future directions for research are discussed.

The Relationship

In this study we focus on the university students and the factors that influence their academic motivation. The participants were 202 students from different universities and specializations, 167 females and 35 males, aged 18-31 years, M = 21.33, SD = 2.15. We used Perceived Academic Climate Scale (Felner, 1993), Teacher-Student Relationship Scale (Brinkworth et al., 2018), and Academic Motivation Scale (Vallerand et al., 1992). Our objective was to identify the relationship between academic climate, teacher-student relationship (TSR), and academic motivation in the university environment, and to investigate the influence of the career anxiety on the academic motivation of students. The results show that anxiety regarding future career can moderate the relationship between school climate and academic amotivation and also between TSR and academic motivation.

Introducción. El objetivo de esta investigación fue examinar la relación entre la calidad de la relación profesor-estudiante, la creencia en la autoeficacia del profesorado y las orientaciones académicas y de comportamiento del estudiantado. De esta manera, la investigación actual podría ser útil para comprender y documentar los impactos directos e indirectos de las creencias de autoeficacia del profesorado sobre el vínculo entre la calidad de la relación profesor-estudiante y el ajuste escolar del estudiantado.Método. La muestra para este proyecto de investigación comprendió aulas de primaria y su profesorado, que están inscritos en programas de formación docente en una universidad grande en la Región Suroeste de los Estados Unidos. Ochenta y siete profesores (81 mujeres, 6 hombres) informaron sobre sus relaciones percibidas con 258 estudiantes de primaria (168 mujeres, 90 hombres).Resultados. Según la hipótesis, las niñas y los niños con calificaciones altas en conflicto relacional con el profesorado, también fueron percibidos como más desviados de comportamiento y menos competentes social y académicamente. Se identificó la tendencia inversa para las niñas y los niños con altas calificaciones en la cercanía relacional y la dependencia.Discusión y Conclusión. Además, el estudio actual mostró que el profesorado con creencias de mayor autoeficacia tienen más probabilidades de forjar relaciones más cercanas y cálidas con sus estudiantes, porque tenían más confianza en su capacidad y habilidades para el empleo de habilidades efectivas de gestión del aula y la capacidad de mejorar su compromiso.

The Relationship

Abstract:The impact of the teacher-student relationship on the child’s development proves to be particularly important in the first years of scholarization. Such impact is even higher in students with atypical development. Despite the clear relevance of the teacher-student relationship, researches have rarely encompassed subjects with special education requirements. The objective of this project, therefore, is to focus on the characteristics perceived by the teacher in the relationship with students with different educational needs. In particular, we describe the results achieved with different groups of children with special education needs, i.e. autism spectrum disorders (14) and Down’s syndrome (18), learning disorders (38) and attention-deficit and hyperactivity disorders (72). To measure the teacher’s perception of the quality of the relation with the pupil we have used the Italian version of the Student-Teacher Relationship Scale (STRS; Pianta, 2001) as developed by Fraire and colleagues (2013). The social bonds with children with difficulties differ for at least one relational aspect from those with children from the Control Group, the sole exception being children with Down’s syndrome. The Closeness dimension is hampered only in the case of the bonds with children affected by an autism spectrum disorder. On the contrary, relationships with children affected by frequent distraction and hyperactivism-related disorders are characterized by a higher level of Conflict and Dependency. Both dimensions increase in presence of high levels of pupil distraction, whereas only Conflict is at stake in presence of hyperactivity. As to children with learning disorders, only a difference in the Dependency dimension has been registered. These children, in fact, are seen by the teacher as being less autonomous than their classmates and thus requiring more frequent support and assistance.Keywords: student-teacher relationship, pupils with special needs, autism spectrum disorders, Down’s syndrome, learning disorders, attention-deficit and hyperactivity disorders
