increased through the series of events that have ever 
been encountered. When the teacher faced his various 
students, he would group them into certain concepts 
that are intelligent,  ignorant,  ugly,  industrious,  and 
lazy.  The  use  of  this  stimulation  simplified  the 
stimulation  that  was  received.  The  success  of 
interpersonal  communication  depended  on  self-
concept  (positive  or  negative).  The  knowledge  of 
one’s self would improve communication and at the 
same time, communicating with others increased the 
knowledge of one's self. 
Education  at  School  was  not  limited  to  formal 
time but also  informally. Education  at  School  also 
included intercommunication between students with 
another  student  and  student  with  teacher  including 
head master outside the classroom or it was not in the 
interaction of teaching and learning activities. At this 
time it opened the opportunity for teachers to create 
an  educational  association  for  students.  For  that 
matter the interpersonal communication of teachers 
with students as a means of knowledge transfer was 
very  important.  Even  it  was  very  big  role  in 
determining  the  success  of education  concerned.  It 
was  often  said  that  the  high  level  of  an  education 
quality  achievement  was  also  influenced  by 
communication factors among teachers and students 
such  as  interpersonal  communication.  Associated 
with  the  learning  process  at  schools,  interpersonal 
communication  among  teachers  and  students  is 
effective if the message that is delivered by teachers 
could  be  accepted  and  understood,  and  also  it 
generated  positive  feedback  for  students.  With  the 
positive  interaction  between  student  and  teacher 
through  good  interpersonal  communication  could 
solve  various  differences  so  that  students'  learning 
achievement  would  increase  through  the  spirit  of 
learning because they were motivated by the teacher.

received  1  September  2010)  This  research  was 
designed  to  investigate  the  distribution  o¬n 
interpersonal profiles based on student and teacher’s 
perceptions and to examine the association between 
student’s perception of teacher interpersonal behavior 
and  learning  motivation  in  Indonesia.  Participants 
were 1900 secondary school students (grades 7 to 9) 
across  66 (Mathematics  and  EFL)  classes  from  11 
public schools in Indonesia. The results showed that 
a  variety  of¬  interpersonal  profiles  could  be 
distinguished, that teachers perceive themselves more 
favorably  than  their  students  do,  and  that  student’s 
perception of teacher interpersonal behavior and their 
learning  motivation  were  associated.  Influence  and 
Proximity were found to be important determinants of 
student’s motivation; both dimensions were related to 
a more autonomous motivation, while Influence was 
also  associated  with  a  more  controlled  motivation. 
Contrary to the existing knowledge base, this research 
revealed  that  the  relationship  between  teacher’s 
interpersonal  behavior  and  student’s  learning 
motivation was more strongly connected to Influence 
than to Proximity. Keywords: interpersonal behavior;

three  decades,  scholars  in  the  domain  of  earning 
environment  research  have  shown  a  considerable 
interest in conceptualizing, measuring and examining 
perceptions  of  psychosocial  characteristics  of  the 
learning  environment  in  terms  of  teacher–student’s 
interpersonal relationships (e.g., Fraser, 1998; Fraser 
& Walberg, 1991; Wubbels & Brekelmans, 1998). A 
number of studies  have revealed the importance of 
teacher–student’s  relationships  for  student’s 
outcomes (e.g., den Brok, Brekelmans, & Wubbels, 
2004;  Henderson,  Fisher,  &  Fraser,  2000).  Studies 
have  shown  that  teacher–student  interpersonal 
relationships  have  eects  on  both  teachers  and 
students.  Teachers  who  were  experiencing  healthy 
interpersonal  relationships  with their  students  were 
argued to experience better satisfaction with their job 
and with preventing of burnout (Ben-Chaim & Zoller, 
2001).  Similarly,  students’  perceptions  of  teacher 
interpersonal  behavior  are  strongly  associated  with 
their motivation and achievement in all subjects (den
