越来越多的证据表明，当青少年感觉到学校里的人在照顾他们，感觉自己是学校的一部分时，他们就不太可能使用药物、从事暴力或在很小的时候就开始性行为。然而，增加学生与学校的联系的具体策略还没有研究。这项研究考察了学校连接性和学校环境之间的关联，以确定增加学生与学校的连接性的方法。来自全国青少年健康纵向研究的校内和学校管理人员调查(127所学校的75,515名学生)的数据和分层线性模型被用来估计学校特征与每所学校的平均学校连接水平之间的关联。积极的课堂管理氛围，参与课外活动。宽容的纪律政策和较小的学校规模与高校联系呈正相关。
Increasing evidence shows that when adolescents feel cared for by people at their school and feel like a part of their school, they are less likely to use substances, engage in violence, or initiate sexual activity at an early age. However, specific strategies to increase students' connectedness to school have not been studied. This study examined the association between school connectedness and the school environment to identify ways to increase students' connectedness to school. Data from the in-school and school administrator surveys of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (75,515 students in 127 schools) and hierarchical linear models were used to estimate the association between school characteristics and the average level of school connectedness in each school. Positive classroom management climates, participation in extracurricular activities. tolerant disciplinary policies, and small school size were associated positively with higher school connectedness.
