敘說探究：一位全盲女同志認同歷程

本研究為探索全盲女同志認同之歷程，採用敘說研究方法，以先天性全盲女性視障者（小叮噹）為研究參與者，以深度訪談為主要蒐集資料方法，相關的文件檔案為輔。分析方式以結構取向為主，籍由不同次序的故事展演，串連說故事者的生命經驗，描繪全盲女同志認同上的轉變，包含情境帶來的變化與伴隨的酸甜苦辣，採時間軸為順序循序鋪陳小叮噹的同志認同歷程。研究結果顯示小叮噹的認同歷程，並非呈現出單純直線發展的路徑，而是全盲因素導致資訊匱乏影響認同歷程的發展，外加可能因家庭反對或情路坎何等因素導致認同歷程的改變。

Narrative inquiry is a way of thinking of experience. The purpose of this study was to explore the process of the blind lesbian identity by narrative inquiry. The research participant, Doraemon (pseudonym), was born as blind. We collected data mainly by in-depth interviews, documents, and records, like letters, blogs and so on. Analysis methods were based on Labov's orientation of structure. We assigned numbers to each sentence, which was divided into an abstract, orientation, and complicate action as different functions. We composed each theme into three parts in which they connected her lives of experience with the conversion of the identity of a blind lesbian including the situation resulting in changing and accompanying the joy and sadness. In addition to personal background, Doraemon's blog, Time Machine, was used to show the sequence of her identification. The results showed that the process of identification was not smooth but being blind leading to lack of information which affected the development of the process of identification. In addition the participant's family opposition or frustrations might change the process.
