The JMBI is composed of 17 items, with three factors: PA (e.g., I am filled up with my job [a reversed item]; six items), DP (e.g., I sometimes do not feel like talking to my colleagues as well as my students; eight items), and EE (e.g., I sometimes feel exhausted, both physically and emotionally; three items). 14 To create a contract, acceptance of an offer must be For EE, Traditional Attitude (=.16, p<.05), Difficulty (=.41, p<.001), Being Proactive (=.16, p<.05), and Facilitating Conversation (=.17, p<.05) showed significant effects. When children observe that home and school are engaged in a respectful partnership for their benefit, they are likely to develop more positive attitudes about school and achieve more, compared to situations in which school and home are seen as being worlds apart. Based on a preliminary study, we developed a questionnaire with 30 items for the partnership attitude (PAT) scale, 37 items for the partnership actions (PAC) scale and three other scales.

Before examining the relationship between concurrent scales and the PAT and the PAC, we examined the internal consistency for the existing scales: the BCS, the SSA, and the JMBI. In the same aforementioned pilot study (Iida et al., Citation2014), to create the scale, three open-ended questions about teachers actions toward building, maintaining, and improving the homeschool relationship were used: what do you do to build a good relationship with parents?, what do you do to maintain a good relationship with parents?, and what do you do to improve your relationship with parents?. Under these circumstances, the mental health issues among Japanese teachers are drawing attention. The first factor included items such as I respect parents wishes that their children will be successful and well-received at school and I invite parents to talk to teachers if something comes up, so it was named Respect Parents (=.86). The Being Proactive factor related to teachers actions aimed at displaying honesty and earnestness toward parents. Japanese schools have a long tradition of valuing the homeschool partnership, although the effect has not been empirically examined.

This model emphasizes the reciprocal effect of immediate settings (e.g., classroom) and larger contexts (school, home) to explain the contexts of development. The BCS is a 5-point, Likert-type scale (1=Strongly disagree, 2=Disagree, 3=Neither agree nor disagree, 4=Agree, and 5=Strongly agree) composed of 18 items, with three factors: usefulness of cooperation (e.g., I feel I can do a lot of work when I work with people; nine items), individual orientation (e.g., When working with other people, I cannot do things my own way; six items), and inequity (e.g., We work together to help others who cannot perform the job by themselves; three items). This means that homeroom teachers typically support 30 to 40 students, academically and behaviorally. Like some aforementioned effects of the PAC/PAT on specific aspects of teachers burnout, having a traditional attitude and having difficulty toward dealing with parents were shown to be risk factors for EE, whereas being proactive toward dealing with parents and facilitating conversation with them were shown to be protective factors of EE. <<
The results indicated that, while Traditional Attitude and Difficulty may increase teachers EE, building a good relationship with parents through actions that relate to Being Proactive and Facilitating Conversation factors may work as protective factors against EE. endobj
The Social Skills Self-Rating Scale for Adults (SSA) (Aikawa & Fujita, Citation2005) was administered to examine the validity of the PAT. SSA was chosen because the framework of social skills (building, maintaining, and improving relationships) was used in the pilot study, and we expected that the PAT would closely relate to certain aspects of this social skills scale. The fifth factor included items such as when I talk to parents, I try to have some chats and make jokes so that we can enjoy the conversation; and I let parents talk as much as possible during a parent meeting, so it was named Facilitating Conversation (=.67). 4 Relative poverty rate means the percentage of people who earn less than half of the middle rank (median number) of income for a regular job in Japan.
