Title: The use of affinity-seeking in producing liking and learning in the classroom
Author: Frymier, Ann Bainbridge
Appeared in: Journal of applied communications research
Paging: Volume 22 (1994) nr. 2 pages 87-105
Year: 1994-05
Contents: The affinity-seeking typology (Bell & Daly, 1984) was developed and validated for interpersonal contexts, but has been used quite extensively in recent years in the instructional setting. Teacher use of affinity-seeking has been associated with learning, motivation, and teacher credibility. The present research had two primary objectives. The first objective was to validate the use of the affinity-seeking typology in the instructional context. The second objective was to test two causal models of the affinity-seeking and learning relationship. The motivation model proposed that motivation played a mediating role between liking produced by affinity-seeking and student learning. The direct-effects model proposed that liking had a direct effect on student learning. Using panel data collected over the period of a semester, some affinity-seeking strategies were found to be more useful in the instructional context than others, and greater support was found for the motivation model.
