Summary:碩士 === 臺北市立教育大學 === 心理與諮商教學碩士學位班 === 98 === The purpose of this research is to investigate relations among students’ perception of teaching style, classroom climate and their prosocial behaviors. This study also explores the mean differences of these variables among students with different background. The measurement tools “Inventory of Teaching style”, “Prosocial Behavior Questionnaire” and “Inventory of Classroom Climate” were constructed and used to gather data.   There were in total 826 students drawn from the sixth graders in Taipei city and Taipei county. Data are analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson’s product-moment correlation, and multiple simultaneous regression. The findings are summarized as below: 1. Elementary students have good perception of classroom climate, and their perception of teacher support is the highest. 2. Elementary students perform much better in prosocial behavior, and their helping behavior is the highest. 3. There is a significant difference in the sixth graders’ perception of teacher claim between male and female. Male students’ perception of teacher claim are higher than female students’ perception. 4. Students’ perception of classroom order and teacher support from male teachers are higher than those from female teachers. The perception of classroom climate to students with democrative parenting style is higher than strict and inconsistent parenting style . 5. Female students have better prosocial behavior. For students with democrative parenting style, their prosocial behavior is better than those with incinsistent parenting style. 6. There are significant and positive correlations among students’ perception of teacher response, classroom climate and prosocial behavior. 7. The more harmonious peers have in elementary school, the more prosocial behavior they will have. 8. The schoolmate harmony and teacher response could predict students’ prosocial behavior significantly. According to the findings, we provide some suggestions for parents, teachers and researcher.
