Teacher–student relationships and college students' psychological well-being: The mediating role of supportive school climate
In: Social behavior and personality: an international journal, Band 52, Heft 2, S. 1-8
Abstract
A quality teacher–student relationship facilitates students' psychological wellbeing, but the mechanism underlying this relationship remains unclear. To address this issue, we investigated the role of a supportive school climate in the link between teacher–student relationships
and college students' psychological well-being. We used a paper-based questionnaire to collect data from 318 students enrolled in three universities in west China, and used Amos 22.0 software to establish a structural equation model. The results indicated there was a significant positive link
between teacher–student relationships and students' psychological well-being, and that supportive school climate partially mediated this link. This study extends the conclusions of prior research and provides new insights into how teacher–student relationships affect the psychological
well-being of college students.
