女性外籍配偶生活適應與休閒阻礙研究

本研究以在台女性外籍配偶為對象，探討其在台生活適應與休閒阻礙的現況及關係。對女性外籍配偶而言，來台生活是人生歷程中的一大轉變，因此，舉凡其生活上是否能適應，在家庭與社會中人際關係拓展是否順利，台灣社會大眾對女性外籍配偶的接受程度，以及公私部門相關配套措施是否能因應防範相關問題等議題，都成為近年來許多社會科學研究的主題。本研究採深度訪談的方式進行資料收集，訪談對象共有8位女性外籍配偶和1位台籍社工人員，訪談過程以半結構式訪談大綱為依據，由研究者親自與受訪者面對面訪談並錄音，結束後並將訪談內容製作成逐字稿。逐字稿完成後並由研究者以紮根理論的方式，進行資料的開放編碼、主軸編碼和選擇編碼及結果分析討論。研究結果顯示女性外籍配偶嫁至台灣確實面臨諸如語言溝通障礙、經濟能力差、單一同儕支持來源，及家庭成員支持力不足等生活適應問題，另外，家庭的牽絆、強大經濟壓力及配偶家人不支持是其參與休閒活動最大的阻礙。同時，本研究也發現女性外籍配偶的休閒阻礙越顯著，則其生活適應的問題也越多。

This study focuses on the relationship between life adaptation and leisure constraints of the female foreign spouses who come from Southeastern Asia. For them, to live in Taiwan is a huge conversion in their lives. So, such subjects as ”whether they can adapt themselves to the new lives and expand their interpersonal relationship,” ”how the natives treat them,” and ”whether the measures that the authorities concerned take can guard against the problems” are emphasized in social scientific studies. In-depth interviews were adopted to collect data, and 8 female foreign spouses were interviewed. Semi-structured outline was used, and the researcher implemented the interviews in person. The researcher executed open coding, axial coding, and selective coding according to the word-for-word draft; simultaneously, analyses and discussions were made. The results show that female foreign spouses exactly have some problems on life adaptation, including language barriers for communication, insufficient budget, and weak family & peers supportive system. In addition, their leisure constraints are composed of restrictions from family, serious economic problems, and disapproval from family members. Most important of all, the more significant the leisure constraints are the more problems of life adaptation the female foreign spouses will have.
