澎湖縣女性外籍配偶社會支持感受之初探

Social Support Survey Regarding Female Foreign Spouses in Penghu

澎湖縣新住民服務中心為建立在地新的服務架構，於民國100年5-7月間實施本研究，來了解居住於五鄉一市的女性外籍配偶（含大陸籍及東南亞籍配偶）所受在地社會支持狀況，以及影響社會支持程度的相關因素等重要資訊，以期提供做為未來服務方案規劃的參考。依據此研究目的，本研究採量化研究方法，以問卷調查方式進行資料蒐集，經統計分析結果發現：女性外籍配偶對於所受社會支持的感受，與原國籍及來台年數並無關聯；但女性外籍配偶年齡會影響社會支持程度之高低；而女性外籍配偶現居住地不同時，女性外籍配偶所受社會支持程度也有顯著差異。因此，本研究將指引新住民服務中心未來之工作，朝向改善澎湖縣境內不同鄉市對於女性外籍配偶支持的差異，並建構可及近的支持窗口。

Conducted by Penghu County Services Center of New Residents, this research made between May and July 2011 was meant to build up a new framework to provide services to female foreign spouses in local communities. To meet this target, we had to understand the degree of local support given to foreign female spouses (who came from China and/or South East Asian countries on the main) living in the five towns and one city of Penghu County. Then, we had to analyze the relevant factors that would influence the degree of social support. Lastly, we had to build up a reference framework for the design of service programs to the female foreign spouses.A quantitative methodology was adopted in this research. We firstly issued questionnaires to collect data. After analyzing the data, we had the following key findings: The degrees of social support felt by new residents were not related to their original nationality and the length of time they had lived in Taiwan. However, the degrees of social support were related to their ages and residential addresses. These findings were used to set up a future service framework in a hope to narrow down the gaps among different regions in the county and construct service supporting spots more accessible to the foreign female spouses in Penghu.
