Abstract

Addressing worldwide declines in adolescents’ school belonging requires identifying factors to target in reversing this trend. We hypothesized that adolescents with higher levels of teacher connection and perspective-taking would have greater school belonging and that the joint association of both factors with school belonging would be more than additive. We analysed cross-sectional survey data from 15-year-olds in 62 countries (N = 392,096) collected in the 2018 Programme for International Student Assessment. Measures were expressed in standard deviation (SD) units. Based on regression models with both factors plus covariates, school belonging increased 0.12 (95% CI: 0.11, 0.13) units for a 1.00 SD increase in teacher connection and 0.09 units (95% CI: 0.08, 0.10) for a 1.00 SD increase in perspective-taking. The observed (joint) association of both factors with school belonging was 19.0% greater than the expected (additive) association. Efforts to increase teacher connection and perspective-taking could improve school belonging.

62个国家的青少年中教师联系和学生观点采纳及其与学校归属感的关系

要解决世界范围内青少年学校归属感下降的问题，就需要确定扭转这一趋势的目标因素。我们假设，教师联系和换位思考水平较高的青少年会有更大的学校归属感，这两个因素与学校归属感的联合关联将超过相加。我们分析了2018年国际学生评估计划收集的62个国家(N = 392,096) 15岁学生的横断面调查数据。测量以标准差(SD)单位表示。基于这两个因素加上协变量的回归模型，教师联系增加1.00个标准差，学校归属感增加0.12个单位(95% CI: 0.11, 0.13);观点接受增加1.00个标准差，学校归属感增加0.09个单位(95% CI: 0.08, 0.10)。观察到的这两个因素与学校归属的(联合)关联比预期的(加性)关联大19.0%。努力增加教师之间的联系和换位思考可以改善学校归属感。
