摘要

本研究主要關切在台外籍移工的生活適應及生活滿意度。在地飲食體驗雖屬跨文化適應的一環，卻少受關注，故本研究也探討文化差異與在地飲食體驗對移工生活適應及生活滿意度的影響。本研究以台南科學園區外籍移工為調查對象，共收集有效問卷588份。為驗證文化差異與在地飲食體驗是否具有交互作用，本研究採用調節中介分析。研究結果顯示移工的在地飲食體驗正向影響其生活適應與生活滿意度，且文化差異對在地飲食體驗與生活適應之間的關係具有正向的調節效果。研究結果表明高科技業者對移工提供的日常生活環境與族裔聚居的效果大幅提升移工的生活適應與生活滿意度。未來對移工的研究架構則應考慮納入組織支持與社會支持。另外，根據研究結果衍伸的管理意涵，本研究也提供數項實務建議。

This study aims to explore the general adjustment and life satisfaction of the migrant workers during their sojourn in Taiwan. In addition, the cultural differences as a moderator affecting the relations between local food experience and general adjustment as well as life satisfaction were also investigated. A survey was conducted to the migrant workers who were employed with the factories in the Tainan Science Park, Taiwan and a total of 588 useable questionnaires were obtained. A moderated-mediation analysis was carried out and the results supported most of the hypotheses. Further analysis indicates that both organizational and social support play an important role in enhancing migrant workers' general adjustment and life satisfaction. In addition, local food experience was found to have a positive effect on both general adjustment and life satisfaction, while the relation between local food experience and general adjustment was positively moderated by the cultural differences. In conclusion, the present study lends support that the local food experience exerts positive effect on the general adjustment as well as life satisfaction. The moderating role of the cultural differences was also confirmed in this study.
