台灣社會中女性的生活場域與成就：女醫師為例

本研究首先回顧西方心理學有關成就領域的文獻，諸如「成就動機」、「成功恐懼」、「替代性成就」等多項概念，探討過去西方學術的論述中，女性「成就」被擺置的位置，指出以此種既定架構解釋女性的偏頗與侷限。然後將家庭與工作視作同一系統，藉由深度訪談的方式，以九位女醫師為對象，在台灣社會脈絡中探討女性所發展出來的生活形態及成就意義，由女性的主體經驗中，指陳出在這樣的社會架構下，女性的受限與突破，並進一步肯定「多面向的成就觀」。

This research reviews such concepts as ''achievement motivation'', ''fear of success'' and ''vicarious achievement'' etc. in western psychology literature and discusses the position of females in previous discourses on achievement-related issues. The authors try to point out the bias and restrictions of male-dominance in previous literatures. Nine female medical doctors were interviewed to gather information about their life style and achievement in the social context of Taiwan. Family and work are considered to be two sub-fields of the same systems. The efforts and limitations of the female professional are discussed to explain what achievement means to them in order to advocate the concept of multi-faceted achievements.
