臺北縣國中學生學校生活素質之調查研究

政府對國民教育的重視與投資，使得國民教育在量的擴充與質的改進上，績效顯著。可是量的擴充與質的改進，並未見得保證學校生活素質的提昇。根據台灣省主社會處七十一年所做的青少年生活狀況調查，升學主義、學業困擾、情緒的安定與安全、青少年犯罪等是當前教育與個人生活上最大的問題。這些問題使學生對學校生活普遍感覺不幸福、不快樂、不滿意。而欲改變這種現象，應深入了解影響學生對學校不滿意的因素，針對不滿意的層面調查學校的政策方針。基於此等認識，本研究旨在分析影響國中學生對學校生活素質知覺的相關因素，據以擬具建議，以改進國民中學之學校設施。析而言之，本研究之目的如下：1.分析文獻，從有關研究中，整理出國中學生學校生活素質知覺的建構層面與指標，做為研究理論的依據。2. 瞭解學校地區及學校規模對於學生學校生活素質知覺的影響。\r3. 瞭解年級、性別、社經地位、學業成就等，對於學生學校生活素質知覺的影響。\r4. 根據前述研究結果，擬具建議，作為改進國民中學學校生活素質之參考。
