摘要

本研究旨在探討中部地區家政推廣教育對農村婦女生活素質影響，生活素質指標係以德懷術問卷調查法建立『增進個人身心發展』、『強化個人能力』、『促進人際互動與關懷』、『提升家人生活福祉』四大層面51項指標細項，據此設計問卷內容。以臺中市、南投縣及彰化縣之家政班員為對象進行問卷調查，共得有效問卷627份，採用SPSS統計軟體為資料分析工具，瞭解整個樣本變項的分佈情形及變項間關聯性。其重要結果發現如下：1、受訪家政班員平均年齡為54.4歲（偏中高齡），加入農會家政班平均年數為10.3年，教育程度以高中（職）最多，目前主要職業或工作以家庭管理最多。2、家政班員生活素質得分最高為「促進人際互動與關懷」，其次依序為「提升家人生活福祉」、「增進個人身心發展」、「強化個人能力」。3、參加家政班年資對生活素質影響力最大，年資愈深，接受家政推廣教育之影響愈多，整體表現在生活素質上亦愈高，家政推廣教育確有提升生活素質之成效。4、建議家政推廣教育對「強化個人能力」層面再加強教育訓練，如在班會中主持班會及方法示範等能力。另配合農產品地產地消之推動，宜加強農村婦女農產品生產、簡易加工及銷售能力，輔導開創副業，以增加經濟所得。
