本研究旨在瞭解兒童空間工作記憶的運作機制，比較不同難度的處理作業對工作記憶廣度與得分的影響，並分析兒童在進行空間工作記憶作業過程中，對視覺訊息的保留方式及其與工作記憶表現的關係。本研究以新竹市兩所國小72名六年級兒童為研究對象，隨機分派至簡單與困難兩種處理作業情境，以一對一的施測方式，記錄兒童進行空間廣度作業時的記憶表現與眼動歷程。本研究以獨立樣本t檢定，比較不同處理作業下兒童的工作記憶最大廣度與得分，發現兒童空間工作記憶的表現受到處理作業難度的影響。此外，本研究進行單因子變異數分析，比較兒童對儲存作業的凝視時間是否受到記憶項目順序不同而有差異，發現兒童進行空間工作記憶時會運用視覺複誦的保留策略。而相關分析的結果顯示，兒童對空間工作記憶儲存作業的凝視時間與其記憶表現呈負相關。最後，本研究針對結果進行討論，並提出研究與實務上的相關建議。

This study aims to understand the mechanism of children's spatial working memory, compare the impact of different processing tasks on working memory span and score, and explore the retention strategy of visual information and its relationship with working memory performance. 72 sixth grade children from the Hsin-chu City participated in this study, randomly assigned to the simple and difficult conditions of the spatial span task, recorded the memory performance and tracked eye movements. This study compared the working memory performance of children between different conditions and found that the performance of children's spatial working memory was affected by the difficulty of the processing task. Also, this study compared children's fixation time of memory items and found that children used spatial resuscitation retention strategies when performing spatial working memory. The results of the correlation analysis showed a negative correlation between fixation time of first memory item and children's spatial working memory span. Finally, this study discussed the results and suggestion.
