父母社經地位與學童空間能力關係之中介與調節變項分析：運用電腦化即時回饋評量

The Mediator and Moderator Analysis of the Relationship between Parents' Socioeconomic Status and Children’s Spatial Ability Performance: Using the Computerized Immediate Feedback Assessment Technique

本研究以電腦化即時回饋評量發展空間能力測驗工具，目的為檢驗該工具之適用性與有效性。本研究以258名5-7歲男女童為研究對象，並讓他們使用此檢測工具測驗其空間能力之差異情形，同時檢驗其遊戲經驗與父母社經地位對男女童空間能力之影響。本研究結果發現（1）電腦化即時回饋評量之空間能力測驗工具有良好信效度，且多元計分功能效果優於二元計分（2）不同性別學童的遊戲經驗在空間能力的表現具有交互作用，男童的空間能力表現顯著優於女童，遊戲經驗是男女童與其空間能力表現之調節變項，是父母社經地位與學童空間能力表現之中介變項。

"The purpose of this study was to develop a computerized Immediate Feedback Assessment Technique to develop a computerized measurement spatial ability testing tool. The subjects of this study were 258, 5-7 years old, children in Taiwan. By using this computerized measurement testing tool to examine the influence of children play experience and parents' socioeconomic status on the differences of spatial ability performance of children aged 5 to 7 of different gender. The main research findings are as followings: first, the computerized IFAT spatial ability test had good reliability and validity. The computerized IFAT polychromous scoring method had better discrimination than computerized dichotomous scoring method; second, play experience played an interactive role in the spatial ability of children of different genders. The spatial ability performance of boys is statistically significantly better than girls. The play experience was the moderator variable that affects the spatial ability performance of children of different gender and the play experience was the mediator variable between the spatial ability performance and their parent's socioeconomic status."
