The main purpose of this study is to measure children's attitude toward political symbols in elementary school. These political symbols, including national flag, national anthem, national flower, political leaders, and political ritual, were explored. The study included the development and administration of an achievement test and a Likert-type attitude scale to test the following: 1. Elementary school children take a positive attitude toward political symbols. 2. Elementary school children have a good knowledge of political symbols. 3. The children's attitudes toward political symbols have some correlation with their knowledge of political symbols. To provide the data necessary for testing above, an achievement test and an attitude scale were developed. An list of 58 items developed by the researcher was administered to a sample population of 927 children randomly selected from 8 elementary schools in Taipei and Hualin district. Chi-square test, T-Test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé multiple comparison and Pearson's productive-moment correlation were employed in examing data. The main findings of this study were as follows: 1. The majority of elementary school children take a positive attitude toward political symbols. 2. The majority of elementary school children have a good knowledge of political symbols. 3. The children's attitudes toward political symbols have low correlation with their knowledge of political symbols. On the barris of the findings mentioned above, some suggestion are made as follows: 1. To strengthen the national spirit education with the concept of political socialization. 2. To revised the curriculum content of the political symbols in textbooks in shopping political attitudes fit for children. 3. To apply value clarification appropriately to the teaching practices about political symbols. 4. The teaching material concerned with the national flower should be an-plified to create a good educational setting. 5. The content and preportion of political symbols in the textbooks of the history and geography of our elementary school should be so adjusted as to meet the requirements of our society and nation. 6. Extracurriculum activities should be so emplasized as to foster children's positive attitudes toward political symbols.
