本研究旨在探討幼兒園教保服務人員性別角色態度的現況,並探討不同背景變項的教保服務人員在性別角色態度的差異與預測。本研究採用問卷調查法,以自編「幼兒園教保服務人員性別角色態度調查問卷」為研究工具,採分層隨機取樣抽取中部地區1,070位教保服務人員為研究對象,有效樣本數為969份。研究者以描述性統計、相依樣本與獨立樣本t考驗、單因子多變量變異數分析與多元迴歸進行統計分析,研究結果如下:(1)教保服務人員性別角色態度偏中等程度,其性別刻板印象程度不高,但對男女性別特質的態度較性別角色職務態度來得傳統。(2)教保服務人員的年齡、教育程度、婚姻狀況、服務地區、服務年資、服務單位、父母性別態度等不同背景變項在性別角色態度有顯著差異;但職務及研習並無顯著差異。(3)教保服務人員的服務單位、父母的性別態度、服務地區與教育程度可以顯著地預測其性別角色的態度。
The purpose of this study was to examine preschool teachers' attitude towards gender roles, using their background as a variable. This study employed the questionnaire survey procedure. The questionnaire was developed by the researcher and it was administered to a sample size of 1,070 preschool educators from 5 cities in central area of Taiwan. These samples were selected using stratified random sampling. Among the 986 responses collected, 969 were valid. Data sets were analyzed using descriptive statistics, dependent and independent t-test, one-way multivariate analysis of variance (one-way MANOVA), and multi-regression analysis. The main findings were as follows: (1) The attitude of preschool educators toward gender role earned a medium score, with most holding traditional gender role stereotypes towards the inherent advantages each gender has over the other. (2) There were significant differences among preschool educators based on their age, level of education, marital status, service district, years of service, type of service organization, and parents' views towards gender roles. However, there was no significant difference with regard to the subjects' duties and studying. (3) Different background variables such as preschool educator's differing education level, service district, service organization and parents' gender-role might be a significantly predictive factor of their attitudes to general gender-role attitudes.
