本研究旨在探討太極武藝參與者之參與動機、持續涉入與休閒效益三者間之影響關係。以台灣中部區域楊式太極武藝參與者為研究對象,用立意抽樣方式發放問卷,研究者發放問卷時親自說明問卷題項及內容,總計發出420份問卷,回收420份,問卷回收率達100%;有效問卷為406份,有效問卷回收率為96.67%。以SPSS統計軟體,進行描述性統計分析,並輔以AMOS進行結構方程模式分析,獲得結論如下:太極武藝參與者之參與動機愈高對持續涉入的表現就愈好;且持續涉入愈多對休閒效益的表現就愈好;其中參與動機表現對休閒效益無法達顯著的影響。最後透過線性結構模式得知,太極武藝參與者之參與動機需透過中介的持續涉入表現,進而對休閒效益達到提升的效果。可見持續涉入表現,是參與動機與休閒效益之間最重要中間媒介。藉此研究成果有助愛好太極武藝族群學術上結合實務之應用方向及推廣建議,讓世界看見太極武藝發光的台灣。
The study is investigating effects of relationship among Tai Chi arts participants' motivation, continuing involvement, recreational benefits. Survey samples are chosen from Taiwan Yang-Style Tai Chi martial arts participants in the central region. The surveys were given out 420 copies. Questionnaire regaining rate was 100%. Total valid questionnaire collected is 406. Total valid questionnaire regaining rate was 96.67%. The survey was analyzed by SPSS statistics software, complemented by structural equation modeling analysis of AMOS. The Research results show that Tai Chi martial arts and significant effects of motivation for continuing involvement are in direct proportion. Continued involvement is positive effects. The motivation of benefits is not related to effects. Continuous involvement is the key to recreational benefits. Last but not least, using linear structural model analyzed that Tai Chi martial arts participant between intermediation upgrading recreational benefits. I hope that the study will help others who also like Tai Chi martial arts apply Tai Chi to a broader level and promote Tai Chi to the world.
