碩士 === 輔仁大學 === 織品服裝學系 === 93 === The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships between the appearance perception of college students on themselves and toward teachers, teachers’ physical attractiveness, and teaching interactions. The possible effects of gender, college of study, years of study, and physical attractiveness of teachers on the teaching interaction perceptions were also discussed in this study. A total of 471 male and female students were sampled from 9 public and private colleges in northern Taiwan. The “scale perceptions of body image scale”, “perception of teaching interaction scale”, “teacher appearance instruments of the scale” and “pictures of female teachers” were used as the data collection. These data were analyzed by the descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way MANOVA, one-way ANOVA, Scheffe post comparisons, Pearson product-moment correlation and multiple regression analysis (including simultaneous multiple regression, stepwise multiple regression). Then the statistical analysis and hypotheses tests were preceded. The major findings of the study were: 1. 96.6% of college students have the middle and high consciousness for “teachers’ dress”. 2. The appearance perception of female students is higher than those of male students in “appearance concernment”, “appearance values” and “teacher’s dress”, but for the “teacher’s personal attractiveness” factor the preference of male students is higher than the females. 3. The students majored in the social science are more interested for “appearance concernment” and “teacher’s dress” factors than those of technical and science majors. 4. The teacher’s physical attractiveness is statistically high related to the teaching interactive perception especially for the “student’s lecture learning” and “teacher’s teaching performance” and the “student’s appearance perception” and “teaching interactive perception” factors are showing statically significant relationship. 5. The physical attractiveness and dress factors of teachers have the best predictability to the students’ lecture learning. 6. The personal attractiveness of teachers have the best predictability to the teacher’s teaching performance.
