Class Environment: Types and Its prediction on Students' School Adjustment
研究将5至9年级的38个班级分为凝聚竞争型、普通型和冲突型三类环境，发现凝聚型班级的学生更喜欢学校、学习兴趣和自信更高，且班级环境能预测学生的学校适应和学习行为。
This study investigated the class environments of 38 classes from grade 5 to grade 9. The results indicated: (1) Three distinctive class environments were identified: cohesive and competitive, average, conflict. (2) There were significant differences between three class environments on students' school liking and avoiding and learning behaviors. Students in cohesive classes had higher scores in school liking, learning interest and learning self-confidence and learning self-efficiency and lower scores in school avoiding than students in the other two types of classes. (3) Class environment could significantly predict students' school liking and avoiding and learning behavior, but the direct effects on learning behavior were lower than the indirect effects.
