The subjects were 719 fifth grade students (22 classes) of 8 public elementary schools. The eight schools contained 2 large scale schools with 6 classes per grade, 2 middle scale schools with 3 classes per grade, and 4 small scale schools with 1 class per grade. The numbers of students and teachers per school were about: 1,200 and 43 respectively at a large scale school ; 600 and 25 at a middle scale school ; 90 and 11 respectively at a small scale school. The main results were as follows : 1. School morale (except for mental / physical security) at small / middle scale schools were significantly high, as compared with large scale schools. Comparing the small and middle scale schools, mutual assistance / cooperation among children was found to be significantly high in small scale schools ; homeroom solidarity was significantly high in mfddle scale schools. 2. As to relationships with teachers, the length of children-teacher (including principal and head teacher) contact time became longer and its frequence higher as the school scale got smaller. In an analysis of the relationsips among children, a significantly higher degree of contact was found between older and younger children at small scale schools as compared with middle and large scale schools.}, pages = {55--61}, title = {「学校規模」と児童の人間関係及び学校モラール}, volume = {14}, year = {1997} }
