國小校長與家長會互動之情緒距離探究

本研究旨在以Hargreaves情緒地理的觀點，來探討校長與家長會委員互動時，情緒影響所產生的親疏距離。本研究採質性研究取徑，深度訪談六位現職國小校長，瞭解雙方互動所形成情緒距離的親疏與校長因應的策略。研究發現：（1）若有良好的互動，社會文化的差異並不影響雙方的社會文化距離。（2）兩者的教育理念、價值信念若有衝突，易造成彼此道德距離的疏離。（3）對於校長專業能力的認同，會因城鄉而有所差異。（4）若透過民意代表的施壓，會擴大與校長之間的政治距離。（5）互動頻率的高低，會影響雙方良好關係的建立。最後，文末提出建議，以做為雙方互動溝通之參考。

This study aimed to investigate the emotional distance resulting from the interactions between principals and members of parents' associations from the perspective of Hargreaves's theory of emotional geographies. This study adopted a qualitative approach. It conducted in-depth interviews with six current elementary school principals to examine their experience of and feelings about the interactions between them and members of parents' associations so as to understand the formed emotional distance and the principals' response strategies. The results of the study could be summarized as follows: 1. If there was good interaction between principals and members of a parents' association, the social and cultural differences would not affect the social and cultural distance between them; 2. If there was a conflict in educational philosophy and value beliefs between principals and members of parents' associations, the moral distance between them would be easily widened; 3. The recognition of the principal's professional ability by members of parents' associations varies, depending on urban and rural differences ; 4. The pressure applied by members of parents' associations through elected representatives would enlarge their political distance with principals; 5. The frequency of interaction between principals and members of parents' associations would affect the establishment of a good relationship between them. Finally, six suggestions were put forward at the end of the article to serve as a reference for interactive communications between principals and members of parents' associations.
