Social Support and Coping Strategies of Students from China in Taiwan—A case of Private University of Technology

本研究採立意抽樣問卷調查，探察196位來臺陸生社會支持與生活因應方式的情形。根據研究結果顯示，在社會支持方面，來臺陸生獲得「情緒性」的支持程度最高，「工具性」支持最少。而女性、短期研習、來臺時間3個月以上者，獲得較多來自於同儕所給予的支持與協助。在生活因應方式方面，來臺陸生最常採用的是「責怪他人負向情緒」，最少採取「尋求協助與溝通」因應方式。而性別在生活因應方式上有顯著差異，女性在所有因應方式使用情形皆高於男性。研究對象的社會支持與生活因應方式兩者呈現顯著低度正相關，陸生從他人獲得較多資源、社會支持越強，越會採取各種因應方式以面對壓力。
