Abstract

In this study, we examined how school policies and strategies (i.e., positive discipline, hardening strategies, and positive behavioral strategies) affect teacher relational factors and teacher reports of victimization and safety. Specifically, we examined the mediational roles of teacher support of student learning, maltreatment of students by teachers, and teachers' differential treatment of students in schools. Using a sample of 6643 pre-K-12th-grade teachers, path analysis results revealed that positive behavior strategies, hardening strategies, and positive discipline were indirectly associated with teacher victimization and sense of safety. Additionally, teachers' perceptions of other teachers maltreating students had the greatest contributions to their sense of safety and victimization by students. Positive discipline was directly and indirectly associated with teacher victimization and safety. Implications and directions for future studies are discussed.

学校政策、策略和相关因素如何影响教师受害和学校安全。

在本研究中，我们考察了学校政策和策略(即积极纪律、强化策略和积极行为策略)如何影响教师关系因素和教师受害和安全报告。具体而言，我们考察了教师对学生学习的支持、教师对学生的虐待和教师在学校对学生的差别待遇的中介作用。以6643名k -12年级教师为样本，路径分析结果显示，积极行为策略、强化策略和积极纪律与教师受害和安全感存在间接相关。此外，教师对其他教师虐待学生的看法对他们的安全感和学生的受害感有最大的贡献。积极管教与教师受害和安全直接或间接相关。讨论了今后研究的意义和方向。
