業餘超級鐵人參與動機、投入歷程與感受之研究

目的：本研究旨在探討業餘超級鐵人三項運動參與者之參與動機、投入歷程與感受，藉由研究者本身的參與經驗為出發點與參與者看法相互連結，以求更深入描繪與詮釋此項極度挑戰自我的戶外休閒運動現象。方法：本研究採用質性取向，招募25位完成226公里超級鐵人賽事兩場以上之參與者為研究對象，並以二階段訪談方式（深度訪談與焦點團體訪談），依照訪談所得結果進行編碼與內容分析。結果：歸納出參與動機、投入歷程與感受的三個類目與八個主要概念；分別是類目一、參與動機，主要概念包括：「內在動機」與「外在動機」統整出參與者的動機；類目二、投入歷程，主要概念包括：「認真休閒」、「停滯因素」與「因應策略」以探討過程中的投入歷程、阻礙與因應策略；類目三、歷程感受，主要概念包括「參賽感受」、「個人收穫」與「進階挑戰」。結論：參與者在投入超級鐵人賽事的動機出自個人追求自我的挑戰與成就感，其次在投入歷程中的阻礙會因個人需要進而找出因應策略使其可以持續投入參與，最後在歷程感受、收穫與進階目標的設定中，不僅發揮鐵人精神般的毅力，更是邁向了遊憩專門化進程。最後根據以上研究結果提出具體之建議，以供未來相關研究與鐵人三項運動推廣做為參考之依據。

Purpose: This research aimed to investigate the motivations and experiences of amateur Ironman triathletes. The study offers a detailed interpretation of the phenomena of outdoor recreational sport by linking the personal experiences and perspectives of Ironman triathletes. Methods: This was a qualitative study involving 25 Ironman triathlon finishers who had participated in at least two competitions. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group interviews and were then analyzed. Results: The participants were asked questions across three categories that included eight main concepts. The categories were 1) motivation to participate, including intrinsic and extrinsic motivation; 2) involvement, including serious leisure, constraining factors, and coping strategies for obstacles to participation; and 3) participation experience, including personal benefit and challenges faced, the effects of competition completion, and goal-setting for future competitions. Conclusions: Participants' motivation to participate in amateur Ironman events came from their pursuit of challenges and desire for a sense of accomplishment. Obstacles to participation were primarily personal environmental factors and circumstances, which necessitated the adoption of coping strategies in order to maintain a training regimen and participation. Finally, the perception of personal benefit and conquering an advanced challenge contribute to identification with the amateur Ironman triathlete spirit and recreational specialization. Suggestions for future research and implications are provided as a reference for the promotion of future Ironman triathlon participation.
