These three scales in my research concentrate respectively on: 1. Exercise in divergent thinking 2. Exercise in divergent feeling 3. The Williams Scale. The result of my research can be divided into two aspects, one is from students’ self-valuation and the other is from other-rated report based on teachers that can be elaborated as follows: 1.In the self-valuation made by students: the data in the scale of exercise in divergent thinking and the data in the scale of exercise in divergent feeling show that these two scales have direct relations with the GPA of these students in the specified area. Furthermore, the higher scores students get in Originality and Titles in the scale of exercise in divergent thinking, the better GPA they would get. The same applies to the Curiosity and Imagination in the scale of exercise in divergent feeling. 2.In other-report made by teachers: the result in The Williams Scale show positive correlation (R2=33.2%) in analyzing the students’ GPA in the specified area, and the data in this other-report scale has certain standard of elucidation explaining that creative thinking has positive effect on students’ academic performances. The researcher discovered that the higher the creative thinking, the higher the academic performance, and vice versa. Suggestions for further research: 1.Expand the area for study— to retrieve sufficient data of students and teachers from different places. 2.Combine qualitative research method— to have profound interviews or observations on both students and teachers. 3.Include the opinions of analyzed students’ parents in the aspect of other-report, while also consider the ration between parents and teachers to achieve most subjective valuation that is closest to the realty.

碩士 === 中華大學 === 企業管理學系碩士班 === 98 === This research aims to discuss divergent thinking as a factor that whether it influences elementary school sixth graders’ academic performances or not, while also analyzes divergent thinking in three scales to explain how it affects these students’ Grade Point Average (GPA). These three scales in my research concentrate respectively on: 1. Exercise in divergent thinking 2. Exercise in divergent feeling 3. The Williams Scale.
The result of my research can be divided into two aspects, one is from students’ self-valuation and the other is from other-rated report based on teachers that can be elaborated as follows:
1.In the self-valuation made by students: the data in the scale of exercise in divergent thinking and the data in the scale of exercise in divergent feeling show that these two scales have direct relations with the GPA of these students in the specified area.
