Boundary issues in teacher-student relationships.

J Sex Marital Ther

University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore 21201.

Published: December 1993

Increasing concern about therapist-patient sex has led to a consideration of boundaries in all trust-based relationships, which always include elements of power and dependency. Such relationships include those between teacher and student, especially those involving research or clinical supervision. Teacher-student relationships differ from those between therapist and patient because of the collegiality considered important for the student's development. Yet, both share the objective of fostering independence of the "client." Therefore, teachers need to find a balance of nurturance and separateness in their relationships with their students, so that the students can carry that modeling into their own careers.

Objective: The present research aims to explore the relationship between coping style, teacher-student relationship, and sports anxiety among middle school students.

Methods: A total of 289 Chinese middle school students from three schools in Shanghai participated in the survey.

Results: (1) A negative teacher-student relationship significantly affects sports anxiety, and conversely, sports anxiety significantly impacts the negative teacher-student relationship, demonstrating a strong mutual effect; (2) Both active coping style and negative coping style significantly influence sports anxiety, while sports anxiety also significantly affects active coping style among middle school students.

The Bhagavad Gita, Psychological Safety, and the Medical Learning Environment: Hitting the Sweet Spot.

The art of medical education is increasingly emphasized in academic medicine as we have begun to appreciate how much potential there is for improvement from traditional paradigms. The medical learning environment poses unique challenges wherein the transmission of information from teacher to student is critical and yet psychological safety is a core principle required for effective learning. Drawing from the Bhagavad Gita, this piece seeks to highlight how Lord Krishna, the teacher, and Arjuna, the learner, depict the idyllic teacher-student relationship, exemplifying the essence of psychological safety.

Background: Self-regulated learning is crucial for medical students because of the rigorous and dynamic nature of medical education. Previous studies have demonstrated the positive influence of teacher feedback on students' self-regulated learning, particularly in basic education contexts. However, research exploring the mechanisms through which teacher feedback affects self-regulated learning among medical students in higher education contexts remains limited.

We demonstrate that the update of weight matrices in learning algorithms can be described in the framework of Dyson Brownian motion, thereby inheriting many features of random matrix theory. We relate the level of stochasticity to the ratio of the learning rate and the minibatch size, providing more robust evidence to a previously conjectured scaling relationship. We discuss universal and nonuniversal features in the resulting Coulomb gas distribution and identify the Wigner surmise and Wigner semicircle explicitly in a teacher-student model and in the (near-)solvable case of the Gaussian restricted Boltzmann machine.
