The purpose of this study, based on the author’s personal experiences of disjuncture in her professional career, is to explore reasons for the employment promotion measures’ failure to improve the career situation of persons with severe disabilities. Drawing upon institutional ethnography, the author portrayed the actors involved in the process, and analyzed factors influencing those actors’ decisions. The aim is to disclose why, even with so many employment promotion measures, persons with disabilities are still trapped in low-paid and low-skilled jobs. The author argued in her analysis that:(1) the government, the education and the professional system promote an image of hard-working citizens and they persuade families with children with disabilities to make decisions meeting this social expectation;(2) due to the lack of and/or the unaffordable social services, those families work hard to follow the arrangement by schools and professionals;(3) the experts and professionals influe...

If the editor-in-chief of a Taiwanese academic journal receives papers filled with numerical data, equations, and tables submitted by European or American scholars, he/she would likely publish them without hesitation. The same mentality characterizes Indian, Pakistani and African academic journals, when they receive and publish Taiwanese papers. In particular, the titles of these papers are decorated with buzz words, such as cloud computing, electronics, smart capital, and elderly nursing homes, etc. As for American periodicals, it is because they charge an expensive publication fee. This study reveals that these papers share common numerical research results, some of which are self-contradictory. In addition, they usually cite Taiwanese master-degree thesis or self-citing controversial papers. International journals treat these papers with the mindset of reading Taiwanese experiences. However, with the advances in Internet communication and the diffusion of intellectual knowledge, third-world scholars will eventually find such papers controversial. These low-quality papers not only convey false knowledge, but also spread an improper mode of massproducing publications and academic misconduct.

Research is the important process of knowledge exploration. Domain knowledge development can be improved by using research design and proper statistical methods meticulously as well as clearly and systematically displaying research results. In order to find out the evolving trend of Library and Information Science, its research design and statistical method is a topic worth exploring. By applying bibliometric and content analysis, this study investigates the 1,540 research papers published in the Journal of Educational Media & Library Sciences (JoEMLS) in the last 40 years. According to its history and mission statement, the researchers separate time span from 1970 to 2010 into four period, exploring the features of those published papers, including the type of articles, article languages, topics, structures, research designs and statistical methods. The results show as follow. During period 1, the type of articles are diversities. In addition , Chinese papers are dominate. Moreover, the top 3 categories of research papers are the study of "Library and Information Science"(66%), follows by the "Education"(15%). As for the paper structure, there are 2.73% papers applying ILMRAD and only 8 papers of them applying IMRAD. The most commonly adopted research design is Survey Method, among them, the study of "Library and Information Science" used more often (46.63%). As to the most commonly used statistical method is Descriptive Statistics (60.11%), secondly the T-Test (9.27%).

Of regular script calligraphy styles from the Tang Dynasty, the style of Yan Zhen-qing (709-785) became one of the most highly regarded styles by later scholars. For centuries, " Yan style " was seen as a climax of Tang Dynasty regular script, and his work has had a wide and profound effect on Chinese calligraphy ever since. However, Tang Dynasty calligraphy critics did not place much value on Yan style, and they did not think of Yan Zhen-qing as a great calligrapher. This phenomenon is difficult to understand. The main aim of this paper is to further investigate the above-mentioned observation of Yan's lack of popularity in the Tang dynasty. The conclusions are as follows: 1. There are only ten extant genuine works of Yan Zhen-qing's regular script calligraphy, including Wang-lin Mu Zhi "Wang Lin's Epitaph", Duo-bao-ta Bei "Prabhutaratna Pagoda Stele",Yan Qin-li Bei " Stele for Yan Qin-li" and others. All other works are either co...

How did people in the Han (漢) Dynasty project their attachment to and imagination of hometown? What does this “hometown”refer to? These are the two questions which this thesis wants to ask. This thesis especially emphasizes the political context which personal feelings depend on and tries to explore how people in the Han Dynasty removed themselves from the indulgence and restraint of homesickness. How did an individual still keep different ways of emotional expression while sharing the same homesick atmosphere? The exhibition of these differences is called agency in this thesis. Chapter One explores how Liu Bang(劉邦) and Xiang Yu(項羽) felt homesick and their different relations and reactions to“hometown” according to the examples of choosing capital cities. What is involved includes not only emotional aspects but political calculations and rational reasoning. The two’s every decision was to seek for a balance between attachment with hometown and political calculations. In addition, th...

With popularizing the Internet, more and more resources and services have emerged along with social networking sites. The Sunshine Social Welfare Foundation's online support group on Facebook was set up for patients with burn and scald injuries. It provides a platform for patients to possibly restart a new life via support groups. The purpose of this study is to explore the participants' mental model of Sunshine Social Welfare Foundation Support Group on Facebook, and to understand the underlying thoughts and needs of patients of burn and scald injuries by using the Zaltman Metaphor Elicitation Technique (ZMET). This study recruited 8 patients as research participants and collected a total of 72 pictures. The ZMET was applied to understand each participant's thoughts, while metaphor analysis was used to investigate the results and core values, which were then drawn into consensus map for further analysis. In conclusion, three main findings are as follows: (1) The mental model of participants on online support group is to get back to their normal life, participate in education and learning, and need spiritual support. (2) Patients receive hope and goal of life from online support group. (3) The participants need the online support group for enhancing themselves, to promoting social values and developing future. According to these results, some suggestions are made for patients of burn and scald injuries and social welfare organizations and departments.
台灣為外貿型及淺碟型經濟體,對外貿易依存度高,故國際匯率之變動對台灣企業之獲利能力影響深遠,而台灣上市櫃公司為台灣企業之縮影,外資持有國內上市櫃公司之市值平均已超過20%以上,國外資金之匯進匯出對股市之報酬亦形成重大之影響,而其匯進/出之誘因就是匯率之變動或預期變動率。本文擬就國內344家上市櫃公司獲利之代理變數個股股價報酬率之匯率暴露及其解釋或決定因子進行迴歸分析研究,發現有61%家數之公司有匯率暴露,且在新台幣實質有效匯率指數與台幣/美元不同匯率變動計算下產生不同結果,前者新台幣之升貶與企業獲利(成反比,而後者新台幣之升貶與企業獲利(或個股報酬率)成正比,前者應為企業外幣報價競爭力增加所致,而後者係國外資金流入/流出之誘因所產生之資金行情(效果)或負效果(無行情)所致。 在解釋或決定此匯率暴露之因子方面,本文嘗試以六個因子股利發放率、長期負債比率、外銷比率、速動比率、淨值市價比與公司規模來對匯率變動率之係數進行迴歸,結果各產業有不同程度之顯著性,某些因子甚至有很大之顯著性。而本文另亦進行共線性與時間落後效果測試與分析,證實前述六因子確實有一半存在彼此之共線性,而在時間落後效果上六因子亦顯示似有落後二期之效果存在
