中文摘要 本研究目的為探討影響台灣地區身心障礙者與一般民眾上網行為之比較,研究對象從「97年度個人/家戶數位落差調查報告」資料庫篩選,並自「97年身心障礙者數位落差與數位生活需求調查報告」,本文研究目的與文獻探討內容挑選出相關之研究變項,對應兩個資料庫進行研究與資料分析。 預測台灣地區民眾電腦使用行為之羅吉斯迴歸模型發現研究結果顯示,在控制性別、年齡、教育程度、家庭月收入及居住區域別等人口社會經濟學特性變項之下,顯示是否身心障礙者與平均每天上網時間有關聯。 另外,針對台灣地區身心障礙者與一般民眾上網行為之比較,預測其網路使用行為之邏輯斯迴歸模型發現,研究發現,在控制其他變項情況下,會使用E-mail曾使用網路休閒活動、曾使用線上傳呼軟體、曾使用網路電話、透過網路處理個人金融、曾在網路販售或購買商品、會上網搜尋網路生活資訊、沒有把握搜尋到親友需要的資料、知道政府行政機關設立之網站、過去一年曾透過政府行政機關網站、過去一年是否曾透過政府行政機關網站從事線上申請查詢資料等達統計上顯著差異。研究結果,歸納影響網路使用行為之相關因素,針對台灣地區民眾與身心障礙者的網路使用環境,提出改善建議:建立加強身障者教育程度提昇、提供經濟弱勢上網補助、針對中老年族加強其網路學習、關注弱勢群體網路使用,進而改善我國數位落差之問題。 關鍵字:上網行為、身心障礙者
