Test samples are sixth grade students from Taitung County, Tainan City, Tainan County, Kaohsiung City, and Kaohsiung County with a total number of twenty-seven schools included. 777 valid samples obtained. Statistical methods used include descriptive statistics analysis, T-Test, One-Way ANOVA, Scheffe Method, and Spearman rank correlation.
