摘要

台灣婚姻移民的相關研究指出接觸已成為減低對這群新住民的偏見的重要因素。本文檢討這些經驗分析的研究過程與發現，指出方法上的缺憾，同時使用較佳的資料（台灣社會變遷基本調查2008年的全國性面訪樣本）與測量工具，來檢測接觸的假設。迴歸分析結果顯示接觸對於降低外籍配偶的偏見，並未產生實質的效果。我們再回顧接觸理論的基本假設，討論接觸行為效果不張的可能因素。

Researchers on marriage migrants suggest that contacts had reduced prejudice: towards these newcomers in Taiwan. This paper critically reviews the research designs and findings in the literature, and pinpoints major weaknesses therein. Using a recently collected national probability sample (the 2005 data of the Taiwan Social Change Survey) that provides adequate measures of contacts, we reexamined the contact hypothesis. The outcomes of regression modeling indicate a weak influence of contact in supportive attitudes toward female migrants from China and Southeast Asia. The concluding session discusses plausible reasons why contact failed to produce the expected favorable effects in the Taiwan context.
