The study examined the relationship between selected variables within adult educational environments. Instruments used to gather data from teachers and students in the two adult high schools of the DeKalb County (Georgia) school system included the Student Estimate of Teacher Concern-Form B, the Acceptance of Self and Others scale, and a data sheet. / The findings present relationships between teacher self acceptance and acceptance of others; student self acceptance and acceptance of others; student self acceptance and acceptance of others controlling for teacher self acceptance and acceptance of others; student estimate of teacher concern and teacher's student continuation rate; and student age, sex and race and student estimate of teacher concern and teacher's student continuation rate controlling for teacher age, sex and race. / Chi Square tests of association were used. Student estimates of teacher concern were found to have significant associations beyond the .05 level with teacher self acceptance, student self acceptance, student acceptance of others, and student sex when controlling for teacher sex. / Discussion and conclusions focused, in part, on the importance of these findings to teacher selection, student assignments to teachers, and adult educator training programs. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 41-03, Section: A, page: 0901. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--The Florida State University, 1980.
