中年晚期族群成功老化準備程度與求助諮商態度之相關研究

本研究旨探討中年晚期族群（50-64歲）成功老化的準備程度、求助於諮商態度以及背景變項之間的相關和現況。本研究以中華民國50至64歲人口為研究對象，研究工具為成功老化準備程度量表和自編及修改後的求助諮商態度量表進行問卷調查，共蒐集有效問卷399份。研究資料以描述性統計、t檢定、單因子變異數分析、積差相關進行統計分析，本研究結果的主要發現如下：一、中年晚期族群的成功老化準備程度較青壯年高；生活適應、社會人際和學習認知層次對成功老化的整體準備非常重要。二、信仰的虔誠程度是成功老化主因之一，而非宗教的類別。三、經濟和健康狀況越好，成功老化準備程度越高；經濟狀況越好，其求助態度也越正向。四、有伴侶者在家庭關係的準備度上較高；無工作在學習認知的準備度上較高。五、不同生理性別、年齡層和文化認同在成功老化準備程度上沒有顯著差異。六、中年晚期對於求助心理諮商/輔導態度正向；女性在整體求助態度、諮商成效和心諮態度明顯高於男性。七、不同年齡層在整體求助諮商態度上沒有差異。八、中年晚期族群之成功老化準備程度對求助於諮商態度有顯著低相關；求助諮商態度和汙名化有顯著低負相關。最後，本研究根據研究結果進行討論，並進一步提出具體建議，以提供輔導諮商相關工作者參考。
