目的:青少年时期的同伴关系在塑造学业成绩方面发挥着重要作用。本研究检查了朋友对数学情绪的影响,以及气质在这些影响中的作用。
方法:样本包括350名芬兰学生(平均年龄13.29岁;64%的女孩),他们从7年级的秋季到春季都参与了稳定的友谊二元组合。
方法:在这项两波研究中,关于青少年气质的信息(即,负面情绪,外向,努力控制)和对数学的七种情绪(即,享受,希望,骄傲,愤怒,焦虑,羞耻,绝望,和无聊)是在7年级收集的。使用纵向行动者-伙伴相互依存模型分析数据。
结果:结果显示,在所有被调查的数学相关情绪中,朋友彼此相似。此外,除了这些最初的相似之处,朋友互相影响对方的数学相关的享受和愤怒对数学。以较高的负面情绪为特征的学生也影响了他们的朋友,他们的负面情绪水平较低,导致数学相关的愤怒增加,而缺乏努力的控制使青少年更容易受到朋友对数学相关的羞耻和焦虑的影响。
结论:我们的研究结果表明,随着时间的推移,朋友在与数学相关的享受和挫折中相互影响。此外,高负面情绪可能会使青少年对与数学有关的朋友的愤怒更具影响力,而缺乏努力的控制可能会使青少年更容易受到与数学有关的羞耻和焦虑的朋友影响。因此,当前的发现对同伴关系如何影响数学中的个体结果有影响,更好或更糟。
OBJECTIVE: Peer relationships during adolescence play an important role in shaping academic outcomes. The present study examined friend influences on emotions towards math, as well as the role of temperament in these influences.
METHODS: The sample consisted of 350 Finnish students (mean age 13.29 years; 64% girls) who were involved in stable friendship dyads from fall to spring of Grade 7.
METHODS: In this two-wave study, information on adolescents\' temperament (i.e., negative emotionality, extraversion, effortful control) and on seven emotions towards math (i.e., enjoyment, hope, pride, anger, anxiety, shame, hopelessness, and boredom) was collected during grade 7. The data were analysed using longitudinal actor-partner interdependence models.
RESULTS: The results showed that friends resembled each other in all the investigated math-related emotions. Furthermore, over and above these initial similarities, friends mutually influenced each other\'s math-related enjoyment and anger towards math. Students characterized by higher negative emotionality also influenced their friends with lower levels of negative emotionality towards an increase in math-related anger and a lack of effortful control made adolescents more susceptible to friend influence over math-related shame and anxiety.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings demonstrate that friends influence each other over time in math-related enjoyment and frustration. Furthermore, high negative emotionality may make adolescents more influential over their friends\' math-related anger and a lack of effortful control may make adolescents more susceptible to friend influence over math-related shame and anxiety. Thus, the current findings have implications for how peer relations may impact individual outcomes in mathematics, for better or worse.
