Using convenience sampling, 303 elementary students in Kaohsiung City as sample. The data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, t test, one-way ANOVA, product-moment correlation, and multiple regression analysis. The results were as follows: 1. Gender significantly did not affect the working memory capacity of elementary school students. 2. Grade level significantly did affect the working memory capacity of elementary school students. 3. There were significant correlations between working memory capacity and mathematical learning performance of elementary school students. 4. Working memory capacity powerfully predicted mathematical learning performance of elementary school students.
