資訊社會中的認同觀：以中興大學學生為例

Information and Identity: The View from College Students

在科技創新的推動之下，資訊全球化現象已成為一股不可逆的趨勢。藉由資訊網絡的連結，人們獲取資訊的速度日漸加快，而人與人之間的距離亦已逐漸縮小。資訊吸收數度的加快是否會瓦解個人原先所具有的國家認同內涵，而走向範圍更大的全球認同，或是朝地方化式的認同邁進，在理論上與實證上皆有研究的必要性。換言之，資訊與認同之間是否具備某種關聯性是值得進一步探討的課題。本文研究的主要目的有二：在理論上，筆者嘗試說明認同內涵的可變性，並且進一步說明資訊吸收的加速對認同內涵所可能造成的影響；在實證研究上，筆者嘗試以中興大學學生為研究對象，利用問卷的方式來了解e世代年輕人資訊全球化的程度，他們對國家認同相關問題的看法，以及資訊全球化與認同之間的關係。本文的基本假設是，對於e世代而言，資訊接收的程度越高，對於國家認同的堅持則會越低。筆者相信，雖然研究對象過於狹隘，但對於資訊與認同之間關係的釐清應有相當的參考價值。

Within the process of technology innovation, information globalization has become an irreversible tendency. Through the information network, people become more easily to obtain information, and the distance among people is narrowing as well. However, the questions of will such tendency destroy individual's national identity, and will national identity be replaced by either globalized identity or localized identity have not obtained answers yet. In other words, if there exist correlations between information and identity is worth doing further research to find out. The primary objectives of this research have two. Theoretically, the author intends to explain the possible change of identity, and further to explore the potential impact of information toward the content of identity. Practically, by choosing National Chung Shing University students as sample, the author attempts to understand their degree of globalization, their view of national identity, and the correlations between their degree of information globalization and possible change of their identity.
