【 摘 要 】

The purpose of the this study was to analyse cognitive learning styles, relationships between learning styles and chemistry achievement. Additionally, the relationships between students' learning styles and chemistry achievement score within a subject area, as well as each questions were also discussed. The research investigation was conducted with 10th-grade girls students. Learning styles were divided into nine categories based on the result of Kolb¡¯s LSI. Results of this study were as follows. First, Distribution of nine-types learning styles on the 10th grade girls students was showed that ¡°Accommodators¡± and ¡°Balanced learner(Balancing)¡± obtained the highest distribution(16%), followed by ¡°Southerner¡± and ¡°Easterner¡±. Using an ANOVA statistical analysis, the researchers reported significant differences between achievement scores and that of learning preference types in the information perceive. Using an Nonparametric statistical analysis, the researchers reported significant differences between achievement score and that of nine types learning styles. ¡°Assimilator¡± and ¡°Converger¡± were found to show higher achievement scores, while ¡°Northerner¡± and ¡°Balancing¡± were found to show the lowest achievement scores. Second, in respect of subject area, students were good at answering questions related with ¡°Electrolyte and Ion¡± unit, while they were poor at answering questions related with ¡°Acid & Base¡± unit and ¡°Reaction Rate¡± unit. For the achievement by question types, students showed the high achievement in the questions appropriate for their learning preference types.
