Abstract

Positive teacher-student relationships have positive educational and behavioral effects on students. This study aims to determine the relationship between supportive teacher behaviors and trust in teachers based on the views of middle and high school students. In addition, it was tried to determine whether perceived teacher support and trust in teachers differ significantly in terms of gender and school type variables. Data were collected from a total of 1185 students studying in secondary schools (n=759) and high schools (n=426) in Battalgazi and Yeşilyurt districts of Malatya province in the 2022-2023 academic year. In the study, Trust in Teachers and School Climate scales were applied to the participants. As a result of the research, it was determined that there were significant differences in terms of gender and school type. It was determined that there was a positive relationship between perceived teacher support and trust in teachers and that perceived teacher support explained approximately 71% of the variance in trust in teachers.

Özet

Olumlu öğretmen-öğrenci ilişkilerinin eğitimsel ve davranışsal açıdan öğrenciler üzerinde olumlu etkileri olduğu belirtilmektedir. Bu araştırma ile destekleyici öğretmen davranışları ile öğretmene güven arasındaki ilişkinin ortaokul ve lise öğrencilerinin görüşlerine dayalı olarak belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Ayrıca araştırmada algılanan öğretmen desteği ile öğretmene güven düzeyinin cinsiyet ve okul türü değişkenleri açısından anlamlı farklılık gösterip göstermediği belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Veriler 2022-2023 eğitim-öğretim yılında Malatya ili Battalgazi ve Yeşilyurt ilçelerinde bulunan ortaokul (n=759) ve liselerde (n=426) öğrenim gören toplam 1185 öğrenciden toplanmıştır. Araştırmada katılımcılara Öğretmene Güven ve Okul İklimi ölçekleri uygulanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda cinsiyet ve okul türü açısından anlamlı farklılıklar olduğu belirlenmiştir. Algılanan öğretmen desteği ile öğretmene güven arasında pozitif yönde bir ilişki olduğu, algılanan öğretmen desteğinin öğretmene güvene ait varyansın yaklaşık %71'ini açıkladığı belirlenmiştir.
