Subclaims¶

q3 i? The association between teacher/student perceptions and teacher/student emotions cannot be completely attributed to common-method bias, because overlap between perspectives also accounted for part of the variance. → Donker 2021

q3 · i? · associational · r2

The novel correction method applied to the regression results showed "about 25% of the explained variance in positive emotions originally attributed to the students’ perspective only could be attributed to the overlap between students and teachers", likely due to shared classroom history.

"This study confirmed that the association between teacher/student perceptions and teacher/student emotions cannot be completely attributed to common-method bias. We showed that the student perspective on communion was correlated with the teacher perspective, and that about 25% of the explained variance in positive emotions originally attributed to the students’ perspective only could be attributed to the overlap between students and teachers"

Discussion¶

Related Claims¶

• Standard multiple regression analyses showed suppressor effects that the novel correction method revealed and corrected — related
• Observer, student, and teacher perspectives on teacher agency overlap largely, but observed and teacher-self-reported communion are not significantly associated — related
• Teacher communion is a stronger predictor of student emotions than teacher agency — related
• Perspectives on teacher behavior are not interchangeable: combining observer and student perspectives on agency approximates the teacher perspective for teacher emotions, while students' own perspective is irreplaceable for student emotions — related
