我國政府基於僑教政策,積極推動培養海外華僑人才,以促進我國文化在海外延續傳承與發揚(華裔青年來台升學問與答手冊,2009),自1951年辦理僑生教育以來,海外華僑子弟回國升學人數已逾16萬人次,遍及全球70餘個國家及地區(蘇玉龍、許雅惠、李信,2006),97學年度海外僑生申請回台升讀大學人數計約6400餘人,其中以東南亞地區及港澳地區居多(97學年度海外聯招會統計資料,2008)。 為瞭解僑生在台灣的適應情形、學業表現以及是否會願意繼續留在台灣升學,故本研究旨在探討分析僑生生活適應、學業成就與學生忠誠度之關係,研究方式首先參考國內外文獻,以建構適合量測僑生「生活適應」、「學生忠誠度」之量表,據以作為蒐集實證資料之工具,再以某大學之大學部僑生為母體,採分層隨機抽樣方式進行調查,共分出227份,回收212份,回收率93%,其中有效問卷200份,有效樣本回收率為88%。有效量表之資料應用因素分析、多變項變異數分析、皮爾森相關分析,多元逐步迴歸分析與徑路分析等方法,以考驗研究之假說。 本研究主要發現如下: 一、隨年級增長,僑生生活適應能力調適愈佳。 二、生活適應較佳之僑生,其學業成就表現較好。 三、加強僑生之生活適應及學業成就表現,有助於提升學生忠誠度。 四、積極爭取馬來西亞與印尼僑生來台升學,拓展學生來源。
Based on the overseas-Chinese education policy, Republic of China Government has actively implemented the cultivation of overseas-Chinese talents to bolster the extension; inheritance and development of the Chinese culture abroad (Q & A for Chinese Descent Youths to Study in Taiwan, 2009). Since the launch of overseas-Chinese student education in 1951, the total number of overseas-Chinese students who came to Taiwan to study has been over 160 thousands. The students were from more than 70 countries and districts over the world (Yuhlong Oliver Su, Yeahuey Sheu, Hsin Lee, 2006). For 2008 academic year alone, the number of overseas-Chinese students who applied to study in the universities in Taiwan was about 6400, mostly from Southeast Asia and Hong Kong and Macao (The 2008 Statistics by University Entrance Committee for Overseas Chinese Students, Taiwan, R.O.C., 2008). This research tended to investigate the relationship between living adaptation, academic achievement, and loyalty of the overseas Chinese students in Taiwan. Three major inventories - living adaptation, academic achievement, and loyalty of the overseas Chinese students, were constructed in this research. The data were collected from undergraduate students of university. The questionnaire investigation method was utilized in this study. Through layers of random sampling, 227 questionnaires were drew and mailed for conducting a field test. Totally, 212 copies of questionnaires were received. Among these questionnaires, 200 effective copies were generated. The research hypothesis was testified on these data by means of varieties of methods including factor analysis, multivariate variance analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, multiple stepwise regression analysis, and path analysis. Major findings are described as follows: 1.The higher grade the overseas-Chinese student was the better adaptability they would be. 2.The overseas-Chinese students who have better adaptability, their academic achievement would be better too. 3.The enhancement of the living adaptability and academic achievements of overseas-Chinese students would be helpful to their loyalty. 4.Active wining over the overseas-Chinese students from Malaysia and Indonesia to study in Taiwan would be helpful to the growth of sources of students.
