碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 統計學系 === 94 === Owing to the opening of teaching material editions, diversified ways of school entrance and the change of social value, nowadays junior high school students need a more perfect time management style to meet with the best results in studies and activities. We see many junior high school students spend a great deal of time on the lessons but can’t get satisfying results. What is the exact key to it? The problem troubles school teachers, parents and students a lot. Hence this research aims at realizing the relationship between time management and scholarship achievement, and we can learn about correct methods of time management from it. Many factors influence scholarship achievement. A lot of people think it relates to personal background and the intelligence quotient, but the others think the acquired efforts are more important. Hence they have their kids go to cram school continuously. However, the result is that it causes the students’ passive learning mindset, and then they will lose time and ability to think actively. Can it be said that time management is either the way of time usage, or the question of attitude basically? In order to realize the detailed reasons, we divide time management into two parts to discuss in this research. One is the way of time usage and the other is the attitude of time management. We adopt questionnaire survey to understand the junior high school students’ background, the way of time usage, and the attitude of time management. Besides, the source of the idea of time management is also discussed in this research. We also get the data of the intelligence test results from Counselor’s Office and the scholarship grades from the Academic Office. Since the uncertainty exists in human thinking and behavior model, the fuzzy semantic method is proposed in the second part of the questionnaire-the way of time usage. To avoid losing reality, we choose the way of fuzzy interval for students to fill in. Then we make use of fuzzy statistics, including the Kruskal-Wallis test and fuzzy regression to analyze the data. The outcome shows that students with higher intelligence quotient and better attitude of time management will perform better in scholarship achievement. We also find a large part of parents influence students’ concepts of time management, and therefore parents should often discuss how to manage time well and effectively with their kids. This research also analyzes the way of time usage between different groups and the relationship between sports and sleeping time. All these can provide a basis for the school teachers and parents to guide their students and kids. In the end, it provides some suggestions to help the follow-research.
