• Buffer against stress and risk
• Instrumental help for tasks
• Emotional support in daily life
• Companionship in shared activities

How Relationships Assist Outcomes
• Ongoing social interactions teach individuals about themselves and about what is needed to fit in with a particular group.
• Individuals develop beliefs, orientations, and values that are consistent with their relational environment.
• Hence, relatedness in the academic domain teaches students the beliefs, orientations, and values needed to function effectively in academic environments.
• In turn, these beliefs (if positive and adaptive) direct behavior in the form of enhanced persistence, goal striving, and self-regulation.
![Page 7: Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development ... · Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development (Motivation, Engagement, Buoyancy, ... students the beliefs ... students](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013014/5b15ab987f8b9ac7128db58c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Andrew Martin
How Relationships Assist Outcomes
• In high quality relationships, individuals not only learn that particular beliefs are useful for functioning in particular environments, but they actually internalize the beliefs valued by significant others.
• In the academic context, for example, good relationships with a particular teacher are likely to lead students to internalize at least some of that teacher’s core beliefs and values.
• Relatedness is an important self-system process in itself. As such, it has an energizing function on the self, working throughthe activation of positive affect and mood.
• This intrapersonal energy, gained from interpersonal relationships, provides a primary pathway towards motivated engagement in activities.

Andrew Martin
How Relationships Assist Outcomes
• A complementary perspective on these processes is provided by the ‘need to belong’ hypothesis.
• This hypothesis suggests “human beings have a pervasive drive to form and maintain at least a minimum quantity of lasting, positive, and significant interpersonal relationships”(Baumeister & Leary, 1995, p. 497).
• When the need for belongingness is fulfilled, this fulfillment produces positive emotional responses.
• In the academic domain, these emotional responses are said to ‘drive’ students’ achievement behaviors including their responses to challenge, self-regulation, participation, and strategy use.

Andrew Martin
How Relationships Assist Outcomes
• Relatedness impacts individuals’ motivation and behavior by way of positive influences on other self-processes relevant to achievement motivation.
• For example, in the context of a student’s life, positive emotional attachments to peers, teachers, and parents promote not only healthy social, emotional and intellectual functioning, but alsopositive feelings of self-worth and self-esteem.

Interpersonal Relationships as a Lens to Understand Educational Phenomena
Martin, A.J., & Dowson, M. (2009). Review of
Educational Research, 79, 327-365.
![Page 11: Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development ... · Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development (Motivation, Engagement, Buoyancy, ... students the beliefs ... students](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013014/5b15ab987f8b9ac7128db58c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Andrew Martin
Yields of a Relationship Lens
• Relatedness serves as an explanatory construct through which diverse theories of achievement motivation can be integrated.
• Relatedness provides a useful diagnostic tool with which to view and understand adaptive behavior in the classroom and to treat achievement motivation problems in the classroom that are ‘other’-related.
• For example, adjustment and adaptation problems in school have been linked to the failure of learning environments to meet students’ need to belong.
![Page 12: Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development ... · Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development (Motivation, Engagement, Buoyancy, ... students the beliefs ... students](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013014/5b15ab987f8b9ac7128db58c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
© 201212
Andrew Martin
Yields of a Relationship Lens
• Relatedness recognizes and actively accommodates the interconnectedness of the social, academic, and affective dimensions of the self, and the need for educational programs to recognize this interconnectedness.
• Thus, the concept of relatedness can act as an impetus and explanation for educational programs that accommodate ‘the whole self’.
• Finally, positive relationships are valued outcomes in their ownright.
• Thus, whatever their value for clarifying human motivation and achievement, relationships and relatedness are critical for understanding human functioning more widely.

Interpersonal Relationships in Salient Motivation Theory
Martin, A.J., & Dowson, M. (2009). Review of
Educational Research, 79, 327-365.
![Page 14: Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development ... · Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development (Motivation, Engagement, Buoyancy, ... students the beliefs ... students](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013014/5b15ab987f8b9ac7128db58c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Andrew Martin
Salient Motivation Theories
• Attribution theory focuses on the causes ascribed to outcomes and events in one’s life and the impact of these causal attributions on behavior, affect, and cognition.
• Personal attributions may be learnt from, or modeled on, the attributional ‘styles’ or patterns of others.
• Specific consequences of attributions (such as a sense of personal control) can also be developed through feedback from and observation of significant others.
• Goal theory focuses on the ‘why’ of behavior, or reasons for doing what one does.
• The ‘why’ can be communicated through the values and expectations of significant others (working at individual, group, and organizational levels).
![Page 15: Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development ... · Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development (Motivation, Engagement, Buoyancy, ... students the beliefs ... students](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013014/5b15ab987f8b9ac7128db58c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Andrew Martin
Salient Motivation Theories• Self-efficacy refers to a belief in one’s capacity and agency to
achieve a desired outcome.
• This sense of capacity and agency can be instilled through direct or vicarious influence, modeling, and open communication from others.
• Related to this, Expectancies and Values have also been substantively linked to socializers’ beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors.
![Page 16: Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development ... · Interpersonal Relationships and Student Development (Motivation, Engagement, Buoyancy, ... students the beliefs ... students](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022013014/5b15ab987f8b9ac7128db58c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Andrew Martin
Salient Motivation Theories
• Self-determination theory focuses on the psychological need for relatedness which is satisfied through the warmth, support, and nurturance of significant others.
• Hence, SDT has relatedness as a pillar.
• Self-worth motivation theory focuses on the link between worth and achievement.
• It demonstrates that this link is in part determined by relationships in the child’s life in which worth, affirmation, and approval are communicated in either conditional or unconditional ways.

• Education is a domain that is hierarchically structured, with students nested within classes that are nested within schools
• Recent research explored variance for different psycho-educational phenomena at different levels of hierarchical education structure
• N = 4,383 middle school students in Year 5 (22%), Year 6 (22%), Year 7 (28%), and Year 8 (28%), located in 257 classrooms, from 47 Australian schools
• Multilevel analyses conceptualized as a three-level model:
- student/residual at the first level (Level 1, L1)- class at the second level (Level 2, L2)- school at the third level (Level 3, L3)

Andrew Martin
Sample and Conclusion964 high school students
Students reported motivation in Mathematics, English, Science
62 teachers
“Findings suggest that the composition of the class is relevant to students’ motivation and engagement. Indeed, in recent years where there has been substantial focus on teacher effectiveness and the development of taxonomies
and criteria of effective teaching, it might now be important to revisit the class composition. In particular, there is now
a need for research focusing on the characteristics of effective classrooms (including but not restricted to characteristics of effective teaching), the students
collected together in the classroom, and the bases upon which they are collected together” (p. 92)
