- Academic optimism and achievement: The impact of student-teacher trust, identification with school and perception of academic press in Portuguese Basic SchoolsPublication . Brito, Isabel Maria de Barros Inácio de Almeida e; Oliveira, Ema Patrícia de Lima; Ramos, Ludovina Maria de AlmeidaStudent Teacher Trust, Student Identification with School and Academic Press come together in a composite construct that was named Student Academic Optimism (Tschannen-Moran et al., 2013) and that impacts adolescent students’ academic achievement. This thesis verifies this phenomenon through an empirical study in two Portuguese basic schools, thus adding to and developing previous research. Furthermore, the various constructs object of this thesis are analyzed in a conceptual framework, showing the interest of vulnerability to the dynamics of schools, where positive behaviors develop because of mutual connections between students and their teachers.
