本研究旨在探討「優勢觀點為基礎之探索教育團體」對感化教育少年「增強權能」的成效，並根據研究結果提出「優勢觀點為基礎之探索教育團體」作為犯罪問題行為少年處遇策略之適用性。 　　本研究採「不等質控制組」準實驗設計，以「誠正中學」中受感化教育的少年為對象。其中，實驗組成員23名，實驗期間接受九次的「優勢觀點為基礎之探索教育團體」；四組對照組成員共81名，接受一般輔導課程。 本研究使用量化工具－「增強權能量表」，分別進行前測、後測與追蹤測，並以「無母數檢定(Mann-Whitney U統計量檢定、Wilcoxon符號等級檢定)」作為統計方法，檢驗分析實驗處遇的立即效果與延續效果。本研究同時使用質化工具－「反思札記」，藉由個別成員活動反思紀錄的整理與分析結果，提出成員在團體中的「學習收穫」與「增強權能」的展現，以作為實驗效果之補充。 本研究的主要發現如下： 一、「優勢觀點為基礎之探索教育團體」對感化教育少年「增強權能」有正向顯著影響，且效果能延續加乘。 二、一般矯正教育措施對「增強權能」也可以帶來正向影響，但效果卻未能持續。 三、成員的「增強權能」會隨著「團體歷程」呈現「階段性」發展。 四、「優勢觀點為基礎之探索教育團體」適用於受感化教育少年，也可為少年犯罪問題行為矯治之有效策略。 根據研究發現，提出下列幾點建議： 一、對於青少年犯罪矯治實務 (一)建議可將「優勢觀點為基礎的探索教育團體」安排於新生入校階段實施。 (二)建議可將「增強權能」程度作為矯正學校成效評估指標之一。 (三)建議矯正學校內可以增設「低空繩索設施」。 (四)建議校內舉辦探索教育訓練，讓工作人員都具備探索活動帶領能力。 二、對於未來從事相關研究者 (一)先深入瞭解「矯正學校機關特性」以利預先克服執行面之可能干擾 (二)須格外注意保密相關的「研究倫理」 (三)團體人數掌握在8-12人，或是安排協同領導者 參、對於未來計畫運用「優勢觀點為基礎之探索教育團體」的實務工作者 (一)領導者在團體過程中與成員互動要積極落實「優勢觀點」實務要素。 (二)在方案執行中持續進行「過程評估」。 (三)在團體方案結束後「持續輔導」。 / This research is to investigate “The Effects of Strength-based Project Adventure Education Group” on “Empowerment” for juvenile inmates and according to the research results to bring up the application of “Strength-based Project Adventure Education Group” on treatment strategy of juvenile delinquents. The nonequivalent control group quasi-experimental design was utilized in this study. And the subjects of this research were Juvenile Inmates in Chengjheng High School. There were 23 members in experiment group and during experiment period, they accepted 9 times of “Strength-based Project Adventure Education Group”; at the same time, there were 4 control groups (total 81 members) who accepted usual student counseling courses to compare. The study employed “Empowerment Scale” to conduct pretest, posttest, and long-term measures. Then the data were analyzed by nonparametric (Mann-Whitney U Test and Wilcoxon Sign Rank Test) as statistics method to examine and analyze instant and long-term effects on experiment treatment. And the researcher also used qualitative tool “introspection notes” to collect and analyze the consequences from self-observation records on individual member’s activities and addressed the performances of members on “Learning Gains” and “Empowerment” in groups as supplementary of experiment effects. And the main findings of this research are as below: 1. “Strength-based Project Adventure Education Group” has positive and obvious influences on “Empowerment” of juvenile delinquents and the effects can be synergistic continuously. 2. Usual student counseling courses can create positive influences on “Empowerment” as well but the effects cannot be continuous. 3. The “Empowerment” of members can develop “Stage by Stage” along with “the Progress of Groups”. 4. “Strength-based Project Adventure Education Group” is suitable for juvenile delinquents and efficient strategy to correct their criminal problems and activities. Based on the findings of this research, the researcher has suggestions below. 1. For the practices on correction of juvenile delinquents: a. “Strength-based Project Adventure Education Group” can be implemented when new students just enter schools. b. The degree of “Empowerment” can be as one of criteria on outcomes evaluation of correction schools. c. Correction schools can add “the Facilities of Low Ropes Course”. d. Correction schools can hold Project Adventure education training to let all workers have leading abilities of adventure activities. 2. For future researchers who focus on related topics: a. Understand “Characteristics of Correction Schools and Institutions” deeply first in order to avoid any possible interference on the aspect of application in advance. b. Should pay particular attention to privacy-related "Research Ethics". c. Group members should be controlled 8-12 people or arrange collaborative leaders. 3. For practitioners who plan to adopt “Strength-based Project Adventure Education Group” in the future: 1. Leaders must implement practical essentials of “Strengths Perspective” in the progress of groups and between the interactions with members. 2. Keep proceeding with “Evaluation of Progress” when the project is carried out. 3. Maintain student counseling after the project is finished.

本研究探討優勢觀點在單親親子團體方案中之操作情形及實際成效，長達七週的團體方案，以親子互動關係作為整體方案的焦點及主軸，並以冒險體驗及優勢觀點團體穿插的方式進行活動方案的整體設計及帶領。 資料收集方式為質量並行，在團體前、團體結束及團體結束後一個月，進行三次量化問卷施測；在團體方案開始及結束時，分別訪談參與團體之母親成員及團體領導者，以深入探討團體方案對參與家庭產生的影響及改變。 研究參與者共有四個家庭，研究結果簡要說明如下： 一、在量化資料方面： 1.親子互動關係：半數子女成員在親子互動關係方面，在「關愛」、「敬重」及「卑順」層面有正向的改變；而母親成員三次施測變動幅度不大，親子關係的六大面向中，「敬重」及「卑順」層面有正向的改變。 2.生活適應及身心健康：子女成員在生活適應方面，半數的子女成員在參與團體後有較佳的適應狀況，一位成員並無改變，一位成員適應狀況下滑；而四位母親成員之身心健康狀況並未因為團體方案的介入而有明顯的改善。 二、質性資料方面： 1.生活適應方面：離婚初期的婦女在經濟、就業、住所、子女教養等面向，遭遇無充足資源，並面臨在經濟就業及家庭照顧之間的抉擇。而社福資源、學校資源、心理諮商、醫療資源、就業的周邊效益、與外界接觸及環境因素是幫助這些婦女適應之適應因子。 2.親子互動關係：多數團體成員表示參與團體後親子關係有正向改變：(1)摩擦程度減少、(2)相處及肢體接觸增加、(3)學習新的親子互動方式、(4)親子界線的彈性及調整、(5)更理解彼此想法、(6) 增進對彼此的包容與耐心。 3.除親子關係的改善外，母親及子女在個人面也都有不同的改變，包含：(1)母親成員的改變有：看待事情的角度改變，重新理解親子關係的衝突，甚至有成員也應用到對於離婚事件的重新解讀、更多的反思及自我感增加；(2)子女成員的改變有：願意自我分享、耐心及自信增加、信任他人及學習獨自處理問題。 本文歸納優勢觀點在單親親子團體中的實務運用，及優勢觀點為基礎的親子團體是如何促進團體成員在親子互動關係的改善外，也企圖瞭解婦女在離婚初期在經濟、就業、住所、子女教養等面向之適應歷程，關注婦女們在單親過程所展現的不同樣態及適應因子，期待有助於家庭社會工作的實務發展及開展優勢觀點在不同層面的運用。 / This study applied strengths perspective on the single mother and child group with a focus on (a)the interaction between mother and child.(b) life adaption . Four families participated in the group; they met once a week and last for 7 weeks. The group activities were based on the protocol of Project Adventure and strengths perspective. This study adopted both quantitative and qualitative methods. The quantitative data was collected from both mother and child members at three times: before and after the group activity began, as well as one month after the last session. The results showed that: (a) Mother-child interaction-- 50% of the child members showed positive changes on 3 aspects (caring, respect and obedience), the mother members showed less changes, but still had positive effects on respect and obedience. (b) Life adaption & physical and mental health: 50% of the child members showed positive changes on life adaption. No significant change was found on the mothers The analysis of the qualitative data indicated that: (a) Resources on welfare, schooling, counseling, medical and employment could help the mother member to achieve better life adaption. (b) The interactions between mother and child revealed positive changes, including less conflict, more physical contacts, willing to learn new ways of interaction, flexible mother-child boundaries, being more patient and tolerance. (c) The mother members could reframe the meaning of divorce and conflicts, and had more self reflection. The child members were more willing to share feelings, had more patient and confidence, trusting others and learn to solve problems on their own. These findings suggest that the Strengths based group work were beneficial to the single mothers and their child. However, more studies are needed to replicate the program and further examine its effectiveness.
