摘要

近年來，許多國家積極研擬各項政策設計，希望達到促婚助生的效果。值得探討的是，創新的婚育政策是否能發揮政策效果，解決少子化的問題。本研究以實證調查資料進行統計分析，從差異分析的結果來看，臺灣青年在「婚育需要」上的態度，對多數的創新政策及現行政策的評價，存在顯著的差異。同時，具有婚育需要者的未婚青年，確實顯著地同意創新婚姻政策會帶來較好的預期結果，較有助於提高婚育意願。當未婚者的婚育態度越趨認為婚姻在人生過程中的重要性，則創新婚育政策將更能回應需要，未婚者對於創新政策的同意程度將越高。本研究建議，婚育態度可能是目前生育率難以提升的主要原因。未來有關創新婚育政策的規劃與設計，首要應設法改善未婚者的婚育態度，營造社會氛圍，讓民眾肯認婚育在人生過程中之重要性。

In recent years, many countries have been actively formulating various policies, in order to encourage marriage and childbirth. It is worthwhile to probe the effect of such innovative policies in alleviating the problem of fewer offspring. Via two sample t-test analysis based on empirical survey data, the study finds that Taiwanese young people's attitude towards ＂marriage and childbirth need＂ can lead to major difference in their evaluation of most innovative and existing policies. Unmarried youth with marriage and childbirth need tend to agree that innovative marriage policy can bring better effect and is conducive to boosting marriage and childbirth willingness. The stronger their belief in the importance of marriage/childbirth in life, the higher the capability of innovative marriage/childbirth policy in meeting their need and the higher their agreement with such policy. The study believes that the marriage/childbirth attitude of young people is the major factor blocking the increase of birthrate. Therefore, in the planning and design of innovative marriage/childbirth policy, the priority task is to improve the marriage/childbirth attitude of unmarried people, creating a social aura inducing people to recognize the importance of marriage/childbirth in life.
