Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between thinking styles and the components of mathematical ability of elementary math gifted children. The results of this study were as follows: First, there were differences in thinking styles: The gifted students prefer legislative, judical, hierarchic, global, internal and liberal thinking styles. General students prefer oligarchic and conservative thinking styles. Second, there were differences in components of mathematical ability: The gifted students scored high in all sections. And if when they scored high in one section, then they most likely scored high in the other sections as well. But the spacial related lowly to the generalization and memorization. There is no significant relationship between memorization and calculation Third, there was a correlation between thinking styles and components of mathematical ability: Some thinking styles were related to components of mathematical ability. In functions of thinking styles, legislative style have higher effect on calculation. And executive, judical styles related negatively to the inference ability. In forms of thinking styles monarchic style had higher effect on space ability, hierarchic style had higher effect on calculation. Monarchic, hierarchic styles related negatively to inference ability. In level of thinking styles global, local styles have higher effect on calculation. Local styles related negatively to the inference ability. In the scope of thinking styles, internal style had a higher effect on generalization, and external style had a higher effect on calculation. And there is no significant relationship leaning of thinking styles.

본 연구의 목적은 영재의 사고양식 및 수학적 능력의 특성을 밝혀 영재의 특성을 고려한 프로그램 개발에 이바지하고자 하는 데 있다. 이를 위해 초등학교 수학영재교육 대상자와 일반학생을 대상으로 사고양식과 수학적 능력의 구성 요소를 분석하고, 두 변인간의 상호관련성을 탐색하였다. 연구 결과에 따르면 수학영재교육대상자가 일반학생에 비해 입법형, 사법형, 위계형, 전체형, 부분형 내부지향형, 자유형의 사고양식이 높을 뿐만 아니라 계산력, 추론 능력, 가역성, 일반화, 공간, 기억력의 수학적 능력 또한 수학영재교육대상자가 일반학생보다 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 회기분석 결과, 사고양식과 수학적 능력 간에는 어느 정도 상관관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다.
