摘要

本研究之目的在於探討居民對於公害事件的看法、其自覺風險、對環境污染之認知、對政府及廠方之滿意度、以及對環境保護行為之態度與採行狀況。本研究以高雄林園事件為例，對林園鄉受污染且得到賠償之汕尾三村以及鄰近做為對照的四村中18歲以上居民進行抽樣調查。其主要結果如下：
(1)樣本區屬於農漁並作區，已遭受林園工業區多年之污染，經濟損失頗鉅。然而林園事件之賠償未經任何鑑定，使得對照區民（特別是自覺風險高者）產生不公平的感受，並有1/4認為樣本區居民以賠償為主要訴求，與5%樣本區居民認為賠償不是主要訴求的自訴結果相去甚遠。
(2)自覺健康風險及經濟損失，以樣本區居民為最高。
(3)居民對社區內污染狀況之認知最高，對環境政策之認知則最差。
(4)一旦發生污染事件，居民多傾向於期望廠方能賠償受害居民。
(5)一半左右居民對政府及廠方感到不滿，其中又以樣本區、久居者、36-55歲、認知高及自覺風險高者較為不滿。
(6)居民較贊成個人預防行為，較不贊成集體抗爭。但是樣本區、從事漁業者及自覺健康風險高者較贊成集體抗爭，並有較高的採行比率。而年輕人、女性、居住時間較短者，環境污染認知高者則較贊成個人性質的防範及處理。

This study is intended to probe into the local community people's view .points about nuisance, self-perceived risk, awareness of environmental pollution, degree of satisfaction about government and the factories, attitude and actions about environmental protection behaviors. The study takes the Linyuan incident taking place in Kaohsiung as an example and takes samples out of the residents age over 18 in three villages who received compensations in the Linyuan pollution incident and four neighboring villages for comparison. Highlights of the survey findings:
1. The sample area-a zone of farming and fishery in combination, has been subject to Linyuan Industrial Zone pollution for many years and heavy economic losses, The compensations for Linyuan incident were, however, given without any accredited surveys. This leads to an unfair feeling to residents in the comparative areas (especially those of high risk awareness)- fast differing from the results of residents, live in the comparative areas, believed Linyuan industrial zone's people took compensation as the main point of protests, but 5% residents, live in the sample area, claimed that compensation was not their main appealing point.
2. Residents inside the sample area show the highest awareness of health and economic damages.
3. The residents shov the highest awareness of pollution inside the zone and the least acknowledge of environmental policies.
4. Once there is a pollution incident, the residents are mostly inclined to the desires of getting compensations from the factory.
5. Around half of the residents were discontented with government and 'factories, especially those inside the sample area, old timers in the zones, age 36-55, high awareness and high self-perceived risks.
6. The residents were more in favor of individual prevention and more in disagreement with collective protest. Inside the sample area, hovever, the fishermen and those of high self awareness of health were more in favor of collective protests, and showed hither rates in such actions. Youths, females, less old dwellers and those of high environmental pollution awareness are more in favor of individual prevention and actions.
