This study is to investigate the learning styles of science gifted/talented (G/T) students. Subjects are fifty-one science G/T students in biology, which are learners of Science Education Institute for the Gifted. Learning Style Profile (LSP) was used as instrument to survey learning style of G/T students in biology, which was developed by NASSP(National Association of Secondary Style Principals), and consists of four categories (cognitive skills, perceptual response, orientation and learning preference) and twenty-four subscales. Biology G/T students have the highest score of memory skill, and higher scores of spatial skill and sequential processing skill, but they have lower scores of discrimination skill and categorization skill than other skills. The score in afternoon of study time preference is higher, and that of grouping preference is lower. That is suggested that they prefer to learn in the afternoon and individually to in group. There are no remarkable subscales in perceptual response and orientation categories, but they have some higher scores of emotive perceptual response and persistence orientation. The results of t-test by gender showed that female G/T students have significantly higher scores of memory skill and emotive perceptual response than males.
