School climate is defined in different ways, but in essence, it focuses on student perceptions of academic emphasis, the way groups within a school (e.g., teachers, students, parents) relate to one another, and the higher-order norms, values, and practices (shared mission) that define the school as a whole (Thapa et al., 2013). In this chapter, we argue that incorporating a social-psychological analysis of the group within the school climate domain can advance understanding of school life. To date, most emphasis is placed on the psychology of individuals-as-individuals and interpersonal relationships. What is missing is an analysis of the group.]]> Wed 04 Jul 2018 16:50:11 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43865 Tue 04 Oct 2022 12:28:31 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35440 Thu 08 Aug 2019 09:43:15 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:31286 N = 340 grade 7 and 9 students) investigates: (a) school climate and social identification as distinct predictors of academic achievement; and (b) social identification as a mediator of the school climate and achievement relationship. Achievement in reading, numeracy and writing was assessed by a national standardized test. The three variables most significantly associated with achievement were parental education, socio-economic status, and school identification. In line with predictions, school identification fully mediated the relationship between school climate and academic achievement in numeracy and writing, but not reading. The research highlights the importance of feeling psychologically connected to the school as a group for academic success.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:43:04 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32301 Mon 23 Sep 2019 13:25:01 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53899 Mon 22 Jan 2024 15:04:00 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34520 Fri 22 Mar 2019 13:04:12 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41552 Fri 05 Aug 2022 15:43:36 AEST ]]>
