Cross-Cultural Collaboration on Teacher–Student Relationship, School Belongingness, and Adolescent Well-Being

We invite researchers to collaborate on the development and validation of a comprehensive measurement instrument assessing teacher–student relationship quality, school belongingness, self-acceptance, and psychological well-being among high school students. This project aims to refine a culturally grounded and psychometrically strong tool that can be applied across diverse educational contexts. We welcome collaborators for: Cross-cultural validation and translation of the instrument Data sharing and harmonization for multi-country comparisons Joint SEM modeling, multigroup analysis, or methodological enhancement Co-authorship opportunities for international publications Development of school-based mental health intervention frameworks Researchers in educational psychology, adolescent mental health, psychometrics, SEL, or cross-cultural studies are highly encouraged to join. Let’s work together to advance global understanding of how school relationships shape student well-being.
