The study aimed to discover the combination of the variables of social relationships and means for self-fulfillment was effec¬tive for predicting students’ performance in mathematics. The subjects were 83 students of 11th grade of senior high school students in Yogyakarta. The variables were measured using the self-efficacy scale, teacher-student relationships scale, student attachment scale, parent support scale, school climate scale, and mathematics midterm exams. The data were analyzed using Stepwise regression analysis. The results indicated that out of the five independent variables, self-efficacy and teacher-student relationships were the most effective predictors. The contribution of both to mathematic performance amounted 13.3 percent, which was 6.3 percents higher if compared with self-efficacy only as single predictor. In addition, out of the five variables tested, it was the school climate did not have a significant effect on mathematic performance. Keywords: self-efficacy, students-teacher relationships, student engagement, parental support, school climate, mathematic performance Penelitian ini bertu¬juan untuk menemukan kombinasi variabel variabel dalam social relationships dan means for self-fulfillment, yang efektif memprediksi prestasi belajar matematika siswa kelas 11 SMA. Subjek penelitainnya adalah 83 siswa kelas 11 SMA Negeri ‘Y’ di Kota Yogyakarta. Instrumen penelitian yang digunakan adalah skala efikasi diri, skala hubungan guru-siswa, skala keterikatan siswa, skala dukungan orangtua, skala iklim sekolah, dan nilai UTS Matematika. Metode analisis data yang digunakan adalah satatistik analisis regresi metode Stepwise. Hasil penelitiannya adalah bahwa dari kelima variabel independen (prediktor), kombi¬nasi yang efektif untuk memprediksi prestasi matematika adalah variabel efikasi diri dan hubungan guru-siswa. Kontribusi keduanya terhadap prestasi matematika sebesar 13,3 persen, 6,3 persen lebih tinggi dibanding kalau hanya menggunakan variabel efikasi diri sebagai prediktor tunggal. Secara individual, dari kelima variabel independen yang diuji, hanya variabel independen iklim kelas yang korelasinya tidak signifikan dengan prestasi matematika. Kata kunci: efikasi diri, hubungan guru-siswa, keterikatan siswa, dukungan orangtua, iklim sekolah, dan prestasi matematika

In a sample of 916 Chinese high school students, the relations among the students' perceptions of school climate and their trait test anxiety were examined. The results indicated that students' perceptions of teacher-student relationships and student-student relationships negatively predicted their trait test anxiety. Furthermore, girls had higher scores on trait test anxiety than boys.

Elimination of Negative Character Features as an Element of Building a Positive Image of Physical Education TeacherIntroduction. In the era of the development of a number of ways and forms of communication, positive image has become an important medium of information, including teacher-student relationships. One can now recognize it as one of the elements of effective implementation of the mandates of teaching and upbringing. The aim of this study was to determine what physical education teacher's features are most undesirable for senior high school students, and thus negatively affect his image. Material and methods. The study used the method of diagnostic survey, in which the questionnaire technique was used. The data obtained from 763 students of two senior high schools (484 females and 279 males) was analyzed. For statistical evaluation of the data the log-linear analysis method was used. Results.Quick temper and severity were found to be the features that the students found to be most undesirable in the physical education teacher. The choice of such features as: compliant, indulgent, moody and quick tempered was significantly dependent on gender (p<0.05), and such as strict, hesitant and distracted, significantly depended on both gender and grade (p<0.05). The school turned out to be a variable that did not differentiate significantly choices made by students. None of the independent variables conditioned the selection of such features as passive and unreliable. Conclusions. Knowing what features should not characterize a physical education teacher is one of the important elements that should be taken into account in the process of building a positive image of teachers. It can be assumed that the elimination or restriction of the expression of these features contributes significantly to the positive perception of teachers, and it is followed by improved relations with students and increased effectiveness of teaching and educational interactions.

The calls for increased diversity and participation of persons from historically underrepresented groups in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) have gained increasing prominence within education in recent years, yet Black and Latinx students continue to have unequal opportunities to pursue STEM. This research investigates the disparity of Blacks and Latinx students' participation within high school STEM. Specifically, systemic influences and teacher impact are discussed. The research identifies teacher-student relationships, student recruitment methods, teachers' perceptions about STEM, inadequate preparation of teachers, and lack of resources as stimuli that inhibit student participation within STEM courses and programs. The examination of these stimuli could help school leaders and educators implement appropriate strategies to increase participation rates of Blacks and Latinx in STEM.

The school climate is a construct that can adequately represent the quality of school life. School climate is the sum of perceptions of teachers, parents, students and administration about different aspects of school functioning and has an impact on their lives. The aim of the research was to determine the relationship between the school climate and student engagement. The sample consists of 332 high school students from Sombor and Novi Sad. The Delaware School Climate Scale was used, namely the School Climate and Student Engagement subscales. Prior to data processing, a confirmatory factor analysis was performed to confirm the latent dimensionality of the used instruments. Then, descriptive indicators were presented. According to descriptive indicators students assess the school climate moderately, and on average they are more cognitively/behaviourally engaged than emotionally. The intercorrelation table indicates low to moderate correlations between variables. In order to respond to the aim of the study, two multiple regression analyses were performed. Regression analysis shows that teacher student relations are statistically sig?nificant predictor of all three types of student engagement, while fairness of school rules appears as a statistically significant predictor of cognitive/behavioural student engagement, and the factor respect for diversity of students? emotional engagement. Similar results are found in other studies conducted around the world.

This study determined the relationship of self-efficacy, attitude, and performance in mathematics of senior high school students. Specifically, the study (a) described the level of mathematics self-efficacy of studentrespondents in terms of mastery experience, vicarious experience-peers, vicarious experience-adults, social persuasions, and physiological state, (b) characterized the attitude of the student-respondents towards mathematics in terms of anxiety, confidence, enjoyment, and benefits/value, (c) described the mathematics performance of the respondents, (d) determined the significant relationship between self-efficacy, attitude, and mathematics performance of the respondents, and (e) determined the predictors of students mathematics performance. Simple random sampling was used in identifying the 229 samples from three (3) public secondary schools offering senior high school in the Tablas Island. The researchers used the validated Self-Efficacy and Attitude towards Mathematics questionnaire. It was found out that the student-respondents have moderate mathematics self-efficacy in mastery experience, vicarious experience-peers, vicarious experience-adults, social persuasions, and physiological state. It was also found out that there was a high level of attitude towards mathematics in terms of benefits/value and moderate level of attitude towards mathematics in terms of anxiety, confidence, and enjoyment. Majority of the student-respondents did not meet the expectations in terms of mathematics performance, but a significant percentage of the group was average in the acceptable range of rating as significant relationship exists between self-efficacy, attitude and mathematics performance. The study revealed that the mathematics performance was predicted by variables such as vicarious experience-adults, benefits/value, anxiety, and vicarious experience-peers.
