Summary:碩士 === 中華大學 === 應用數學學系(所) === 96 === Abstract The purpose of this study is to research the attitudes of senior high school students toward money. The data was collected by questionnaire survey method, and the target students researched are 450 students in the National Taichung Second Senior High School. SPSS statistic software is applied to process data and do quantitative research. Altogether five factors are extracted by means of the principal components analysis. There are five aspects, named “caution”, “achievement and fame”, “financial budget”, “pride and vanity”, and “compromising”. To profoundly research the current attitudes of students toward money from a diversity of aspects, the points of each aspect are analyzed by descriptive statistics(means, standard deviation, and so on). The differences have been profoundly analyzed, between boys and girls, among different grades, of the attitudes toward money, from diverse aspects. The following are the results: 1. The aspect of “caution”. Boys and girls agree at it no matter which grades they are in. There are no apparent differences. It indicates that senior high school students, on average, take a rational and cautious attitude toward money. 2. The aspect of “achievement and fame”. As a whole, they tend to disagree upon it in terms of their attitudes and thoughts. However, from this aspect the attitudes of the boys are more visible. At the same time, the attitudes of the second and third graders who show are more apparent. 3. The aspect of “financial budge”. There are no apparent differences no matter which genders or graders they are in. They all agree upon planning a budget. 4. The aspect of “pride and vanity”. Most of the students tend to disagree on the aspect. Especially, the attitudes of the third graders from this aspect are more visible than those of the first graders. 5. The aspect of “compromising”. As a whole, they disagree on this attitudes and thoughts; however, the boys show the higher degree of attitudes towards compromising than the girls. At the same time, the second and third graders show the higher level of attitudes towards compromising than the first grader. Eventually, the final results are concluded and the suggestions are provided. Hopefully, they will be a reference for family education, school education and further academic research.
