摘要

母语教学乃是独中办学的根本，是传承族群文化和价值观的有效途径。本文从独中生的视角探讨宏观和微观的华文教育、华语文和学校的各因素对其华人认同的影响。此研究采用社会心理学的族群认同与建构理论并以量化分析，对来自五所不同州属的独中，共448名独中生进行了问卷调查，通过开放式问题深入地探究独中生学习华文的理由，从而分析华文如何建构他们的华人认同。研究结果显示，华文对于个人的重要性和维护全面性的华文教育等宏观因素显著地影响独中生的华人认同。同时，微观层面作为传播族群文化重要场所的学校也影响着他们的华人认同。

Teaching by using mother tongue is the education foundation of the Chinese Independent High Schools, an effective way of inheriting ethnic culture and values. From the perspective of Chinese Independent School students, this paper sought to investigate the influences of the macro-and micro-level factors of Chinese education, Chinese language and schools on their Chinese identity. This quantitative research employed the social psychological of ethnic identity and constructive theory to analyse the results. There were 448 students from five high schools of different states responded in this survey. Open-ended questions explored the students' reasons of learning Chinese language, as well as analysing how Chinese language is constructing their Chinese identity. The research findings revealed that the Chinese identity is largely predicted by two macro-level factors, namely the importance of Chinese language to individual and protecting the comprehensive Chinese education. Apart from that, Chinese identity is also significantly foreseen by the micro-level factor of the school as an ethnic cultural transmitting platform.
