This research focuses on the study of Taiwan college level students¡¦ attitude toward national identity, including their ideology and overall thought process. This study also provides a complete spectrum regarding to students¡¦ background, and ethnic group. This study hopes to provide significant suggestions for further research, planning over this subject in the future.
This study applied stratified sampling method to collect survey data from 1128 (valid samples) college level students around Kaohsiung area. This investigation is based on the measurement of ¡§College Level Students¡¦ National Identity Survey Form¡¨ and the collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA and Pearson product-moment correlation. The major findings were described as follows:
1. Kaohsiung area college level students clearly show the identification with national (R.O.C.) symbol, Chinese culture and the Taiwan institution, however, there is no clear indication to show their preference of national image, and their standings that Taiwan should be unified with China or be an independent state. In summary, the collected data could not tell the inclination to Taiwan or China.
2. In Kaohsiung area, students with different background factors clearly show variant inclination in national identity; those factors can be identified as: ¡§political party preference¡¨, ¡§ethnic group influence¡¨.
3. Based on the results of ¡§National Identity Multi-Spectrum Survey Form¡¨, the students¡¦ ideology is strongly correlated with their ethnic culture identification, however, the correlation between the students¡¦ ideology and the symbol of the state, national image, inclination to unification or independence is moderate; finally, the correlation between students¡¦ thinking disposition and institutional identity shows weak link.
4. For Kaohsiung area college level students, ethnic culture identification is an important factor for their attitude toward national identification; this phenomenon also implies a strong divergence between ethnic culture identification. However, it seems institutional identification is a fair factor for students¡¦ attitude toward national identification. This also indicates students do not have significant dispute over this subject.
