摘要

盲聾者因雙重感官的缺損，其感覺輸入，常以觸覺為主，台灣現行盲聾溝通模式以手指語或點字為用。然而，盲聾者大多伴隨智能受損，或兼併其他障礙，因此，人際溝通互動格外困難。歐美各國皆有其盲聾觸覺手語，台灣亟需一套有系統易懂易學的觸覺手語，以利盲聾兼併智能障礙，或伴隨其他障礙的盲聾者使用，以發展彼等的溝通能力。本研究參考歐美各國觸覺手語的設計原理，研發台灣觸覺手語，約150個常用詞彙，企盼台灣盲聾者能受益，並促進其溝通能力的發展。

Because of impairment of both hearing and vision organs, the sensory input of deaf-blind people is often substituted by tactile sense. Currently, communication modes used by deaf-blind people in Taiwan are mainly either tactile fingerspelling or braille. However, most deaf-blind people have additional disabilities, such as intellectual disabilities or other types of disabilities. Therefore, the interpersonal interaction is particularly difficult for them. Most countries in Europe and in the United States have their tactile sign language. We need to develop a set of tactile sign language that is easy for us to understand and to learn, so as to facilitate deaf-blind students' communication skills. The researcher followed the design principles of tactile sign language in Europe and in the USA and developed tactile sign language in Taiwan. Totally, there are about 150 commonly used vocabularies in the set. It is hoped that deaf-blind people in Taiwan may benefit greatly from using this tool and their communication development will be promoted.
