q3 i? Combining the observer and student perspective on teacher agency explained almost the same amount of variance in teachers' positive emotions as including only the teacher perspective. → Donker 2021 q3 i? For student emotions, students' own perspective was irreplaceable and the observer and teacher perspective could only add little to it. → Donker 2021

Discussion of the shared/unique variance results (Table 2, Fig. 3): observer and student perspectives on agency combined were "alternatives for teacher report" for teacher emotions, while for student emotions the students' own perspective was irreplaceable. The authors conclude different perspectives are not interchangeable.

"For teacher emotions, including the combination of observer and student perspectives on teacher agency explained almost the same amount of variance compared to only the teacher perspective, and these could thus be seen as alternatives for teacher report. For student emotions, students’ own perspective was irreplaceable, and the observer and teacher perspective could only add little to this perspective."
