The article reflects some theoretical aspects of humanization of interpersonal relationships in the sphere of education. The notion “humanization of interpersonal relationships” is being analyzed. The authors offer a characterization of some parameters of relationships: orientation, modality, valence, intensity, awareness, differentiation, complexity, level of development, width, emotionality, presence of mutual understanding, cognitive identification of the subjects of interaction with each other. Interpersonal relationships have various qualitative characteristics. We can define negative, indifferent and positive interpersonal relationships. According to the authors` comparative and descriptive position, negative type of interpersonal relationships corresponds to inhumane or egoistic interpersonal relationships, the indifferent type corresponds to neutral interpersonal relationships, and the positive type corresponds to humane interpersonal relationships. We show empiric results of our research of humane interpersonal relationships in the teaching staff of various educational establishments of the Russian Federation.
