Subjects included 444 sixth graders in Kaohsiung.The instruments used include” Physics Cognitive Ability and Answering Confidence Test “and “Students’ Characteristic Questionnaires”. Data of this survey were analyzed by descriptive statistics, product-moment correlation, MANOVA, and stepwise multiple regression. The major findings are as follows: 1. In the high cognitive ability and high confidence type, the boy students' cognitive ability of physics is superior to the girl students’. The city students' cognitive ability of physics and answering confidence are apparently superior to the village students’. 2. In the high cognitive ability and low confidence type, the city students' cognitive ability of physics are apparently superior to the village students’. Students with low confidence have positive correlation to the study goal of learning motivation 3. In the low cognitive ability and high confidence type, parents' degree of attentiveness has negative correlation to cognitive ability of physics. And the students with high confidence have positive correlation to self- efficiency, interests, and active learning. 4. In the low cognitive ability and low confidence type, the girl students' cognitive ability of physics is superior to the boy students’ apparently. And the students with low confidence have positive correlation to value, study goal, test anxiety and attitude towards study. The village students’ answering confidence is higher than the city students’ apparently.
