摘要

本研究主要目的在探究三明治世代家人照顧壓力與幸福感的現況，以及三明治世代相關背景變項、家人照顧壓力與幸福感之間的關聯。本研究採分層立意取樣方式，以台南縣市25至55歲的三明治世代，育有18歲以下子女與扶養父母親者為研究母群體，以問卷調查法進行研究；問卷包含「三明治世代基本資料」、「家人照顧壓力量表」、「社會支持量表」與「幸福感量表」，有效問卷共計623份。問卷資料以平均數、標準差、T-test與單因子變異數分析和 LSD 事後考驗瞭解其差異情況、皮爾遜積差相關、逐步多元迴歸分析等統計方法分析，以瞭解與預測三明治世代之家人照顧壓力與幸福感。
本研究之結果發現如下：
1.三明治世代之家人照顧壓力屬中等程度，其中感覺以「經濟負擔」壓力最大，其次是「角色衝突與緊張」及「身心負荷加重」。
2.三明治世代幸福感屬中等程度，以人際和諧為幸福感主要來源。
3.三明治世代的背景變項（性別、年紀、工作狀況、家庭照顧人力資源、父母同住、家庭月收入、社經地位、最小子女年齡、父母須受照顧程度、所獲得之社會支持量與社會支持滿意度）對家人照顧壓力有顯著差異。
4.三明治世代的背景變項（性別、工作狀況、家庭照顧人力資源、父母同住、家庭月收入、社經地位、父母須受照顧程度、所獲得之社會支持量與社會支持滿意度）對幸福感有顯著差異。
5.三明治世代之家人照顧壓力與幸福感呈現顯著負相關。
6.在三明治世代變項、家人照顧壓力與幸福感上具有預測力。
7.三明治世代會因社會支持滿意度較高、社經地位較高、角色衝突與緊張較低、社會支持量較多、男性與經濟負荷稍重，其幸福感較高。
最後，本研究根據上述研究結果，提出相關的具體建議，以供三明治世代、政府單位與相關機構及後續研究者之參考。

This study examined the relationships between the family care stress of sandwich generations and well-being along with demographics. Data through a questionnaire was collected from sandwich generations in Tainan County, Taiwan. Three instruments included “Family Care Stress Scale”, “Social Support Scale” and “Well-being Scale”. Statistical analyzes included “T-test”, “OneWay ANOVA” and “Stepwise Multiple Regression”.
The findings were as below.
1.The sandwich generations perceived a middle level of family care stress. In that, the most stress was “financial loadings”, and next would be “role conflict and tension” and “physically and mentally burdens”.
2.The sandwich generations perceived a middle level of well-being. In that, the main resource of well-being was “harmonious relationship”.
3.There would be significant differences on family care stress while the demographic variables were different, such as gender, age, working status, human resources, living with parents, family income, social economic status, minimum age of children, parents’ dependence and social support.
4.There would be significant differences on well-being while the demographic variables were different, such as as gender, working status, human resources, living with parents, family income, social economic status, parents’ dependence and social support. However, there would no significant differences on well-being while the demographic variable were different, such as age and family life cycle.
5.There would be significantly negative correlation between family care stress and well-being.
6.The demographic variables could be the predictors of well-being. The well-being would be higher while social support was more, the role conflict and tension was lower and the financial loadings were more. In addition, subjects who were men or the middle class social status indicated more well-being.
Finally, some suggestions are addressed for the sandwich generation, government, related organizations and further researchers.
