空氣是人類生存的必要元素,而空氣污染會影響我們的生活及健康。為了探討學童空氣污染概念的認知現況,本研究採問卷調查法,以自行發展之問卷進行資料收集,瞭解國小學童空氣污染知識的來源,並探討不同背景學生的空氣污染概念的認知情形。 本研究以屏東地區國小五、六年級學生為研究對象,以配額抽樣進行調查,回收之有效問卷計720份,資料回收後以t考驗、卡方考驗、單因子變異數等統計方法分析。研究結果顯示,國小高年級空氣污染概念之主要來源順序為:「學校師長」、「電視、廣播節目或影片」、「報章雜誌、課外書」。不同背景學生在空氣污染概念的認知表現上,性別沒有顯著性差異;但在不同年級、居住地區及家長學歷方面則有顯著性的差異。
