Abstract
We surveyed undergraduates to learn the extent to which they experience rapport with their instructors, assess the relation between rapport and student attitudes and behaviors, and determine instructor qualities and behaviors that appear related to establishing rapport. Most students reported experiencing rapport with at least 1 teacher and indicated that rapport is positively related to their enjoyment of the teacher and subject matter. They also reported that rapport motivates them to engage in several proacademic behaviors.Keywords
