Abstract

The aim of this research was to examine the mediating role of teacher–pupil interaction in the relationship of temperament to self-esteem and school success among year-7 and year-8 elementary-school pupils in Croatia and Bosnia & Herzegovina (B&H). The assumptions on the contribution of the dimensions of temperament (self-control and negative affectivity) and teacher–pupil interaction (influence and proximity) in explaining pupils' self-esteem and school success were partially confirmed. Similar relationships among the measured variables were confirmed in both samples of pupils. Self-control, negative affectivity, and teacher proximity directly predicted self-esteem, while self- -control indirectly predicted self-esteem through teacher proximity. Self-control and teacher proximity contributed directly to school success, and the indirect contribution of self- -control to school success through teacher proximity was also significant. The results of this research indicate the importance of the direct contribution of children's temperaments to their self-esteem and school success, and of its indirect contribution through the quality of the interaction with their teacher.

师生互动在小学生气质对自尊、学业成功关系中的中介作用

本研究的目的是探讨在克罗地亚和波斯尼亚和黑塞哥维那(B&H)小学七年级和八年级学生气质、自尊和学业成功的关系中，师生互动的中介作用。关于气质维度(自我控制和消极情感)和师生互动维度(影响和接近)在解释小学生自尊和学业成功中的作用的假设得到部分证实。测量变量之间的相似关系在两个学生样本中得到证实。自我控制、消极情感和教师接近直接预测自尊，自我控制通过教师接近间接预测自尊。自我控制和教师接近对学校成功有直接贡献，自我控制通过教师接近对学校成功的间接贡献也显著。这项研究的结果表明，孩子的性格对他们的自尊和学业成功的直接贡献，以及通过与老师互动的质量间接贡献的重要性。
