Abstract

This study examined the relationship between teacher-student relationship, self-confidence in learning, and academic achievement of high school students in China. In this study, 14,021 11th graders in China took part in the National Standardized Tests in three subject areas: Chinese language, mathematics, and English language. Teacher-student relationship and self-confidence in learning were measured with the questionnaires adapted from PISA2012, the psychometric properties of which have been examined in large-scale assessments. Results showed that teacher-student relationship in each subject area, self-confidence in learning, and their corresponding academic achievement were all statistically significantly related to each other. Structural equation models were used to verify the mediating effect of self-confidence in learning between teacher-student relationship and students’ academic achievement in each subject area. Results indicated that self-confidence in learning mediated the significant associations between teacher-student relationship and students’ academic achievement. This mediating effect was the largest in the subject area of Chinese language, which was 8.1% greater than that in the subject area of English language, and 3.9% greater than that in the subject area of mathematics. This study suggests that good teacher-student relationship is conducive to enhancing students’ self-confidence in learning, which had positive relationships to academic achievement.

中国情境下师生关系、自信与学业成绩的关系

摘要本研究旨在探讨中国高中生师生关系、学习自信与学业成绩的关系。在这项研究中，14021名中国的11年级学生参加了国家标准化考试，包括语文、数学和英语三个学科领域。师生关系和学习自信的测量采用PISA2012的问卷进行，该问卷的心理测量特性已经在大规模评估中进行了检验。结果显示，各学科领域师生关系、学习自信、相应学业成绩三者之间均存在显著的统计学相关。采用结构方程模型验证学习自信在师生关系与学生各学科成绩之间的中介作用。结果表明，学习自信在师生关系与学生学业成绩之间起着显著的中介作用。这种中介效应在语文学科领域最大，比英语学科领域高8.1%，比数学学科领域高3.9%。本研究发现，良好的师生关系有助于增强学生的学习自信，而学习自信对学业成绩有正向影响。
