A STUDY OF TOOLS TO MEASURE THE TEACHER-STUDENT RELATIONSHIP FOR USE IN A HIGHER EDUCATION CONTEXT

The majority of studies on the student-teacher relationship (TSR) have been conducted mainly with primary and secondary students. Studies of post-secondary students are much less numerous, despite the importance of the impact the TSR can have on them. The goal is to explore the scientific literature that focuses specifically on the measurement of the TSR in order to identify the relevant assessment tools for the post-secondary context. The results show that the majority of researchers use self-reported questionnaires to measure the concept of TSR. However, there is no consensus on how to operationalize this concept. For some authors, TSR is a multidimensional construct, while others suggest the possibility of a two-dimensional or even a one-dimensional construct.
