社工系學生的志願排序、學業表現與未來意願學校類型與入學管道的比較

Priority ranking, academic performance and furture willingness of social work students——A comparison of school types and enrollment channels

本研究關注於社會工作學系在學生的求學生涯歷程，對此進行量化實證分析。探討三個議題：一是進入大學前選擇社工系的「志願排序」，二是求學中自我評估「學業表現」，三是畢業之後未來「從事社工意願」，並進行學校類型、入學管道的比較。分析資料來自於「社會工作學系在學生之專業認同與職涯承諾四類大學之校際比較」硏究計畫，對不同類型大學進行資料蒐集，有效樣本數為860人。研究發現有四：一、進入大學前，高達六成學生將社工系列為首選，七成學生自評求學態度認真；二、畢業後願意從事社工者達七成六，選擇「兒少婦家」領域最多；三、相較於其他三類學校，公立大學學生考取社工系時志願排序較後，畢業後從事社工意願也比較低；四、相較於其他入學管道，繁星推薦、申請入學者對於社工系有較高的忠誠度與認同感。

This research focuses on the decision making processes of choosing social work as students' career using quantitative analysis. Three different subjects were compared by school types and enrollment channels: first, the ''priority ranking'' of choosing social work while taking the college entrance examination; second, the self-evaluation of ''academic performance'' after admitting into social work department; third, the ''willingness to engage in social work'' after graduation. The data comes from the research project of ''Social Work Students’Professional Identity and Career Commitment - Comparisons of four types of universities.'' The sample size is 860. Four findings were discussed. First, before entering the university, as many as 60% of the students selected social work as the first priority, and 70% of the students evaluate their study attitude as ''hard working''. Second, after graduation, 76% of them are willing to commit their careers in social work, and most of them devoted themselves to the fields of ''children, adolescent, women, and family.'' Third, compared with the other three types of schools, the public university students' priority ranking of social work is lower in college entrance examination, and their willingness to engage in social work after graduation is also low. Fourth, compared with other enrollment channels, those who were recommended by their high schools and those who were enrolled by the individual application have a higher loyalty and professional identity toward the social work department.
