Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣科技大學 === 數位學習與教育研究所 === 105 === This study attempted to investigate the role of visual/verbal cognitive styles, self-efficacy, and working memory in graphic reading behaviors and performance in computer-based Raven Progressive Matrices Test. A total of 53 undergraduate and graduate students participated in this study. Both eye-tracking techniques and statistical analysis were applied. The results indicated that in computer-based Raven Progressive Matrices Test, (1) no difference was found in self-efficacy and performance between visual and verbal groups, but a significant difference was found on the diversity of average fixation time for each cell of a matrix between these two groups. (2) self-efficacy significantly predicted row scanning behavior and performance. (3) working memory did not significantly predict self-efficacy, however, forward digit-span working memory significantly predicted toggle reading behavior, while backward digit-span working memory significantly predicted Raven test performance. (4) average fixation time on each cell of a matrix and row scanning behaviors significantly predicted Raven test performance. Finally, and implications and suggestions for future research were provided.
