都會家庭多頻道電視使用、家庭休閒、家庭人際關係之研究
The study of multi-channel television use, family leisure, familiar interpersonal relationships in Taiwanese modern families
The empirical study explores how the Taiwanese families experience cable TV viewing in a rich media environment. The study focus on two main aspects-- the role of TV viewing in the cable family leisure life and interpersonal relationships between children and parents.
The findings indicate that TV viewing is still a dominant familiar leisure activity in the modern families although most of samples of households were in a rich media environment. However, it also finds that the more the family spent together with television, the more the family spent together with other leisure activities too. In other words, co-view television in cable TV families was correlated with other leisure activities. Television leisure is compatible with other leisure activities in the sampled households.
In addition, the study finds that pattern of children ’s TV view was related with relationships between children and parents. It indicates that the family whose children spent more TV time with a adult (most of them are parents in the study, in addition a few of grandparents), had more interpersonal communications between children and parents than the family whose children spent more TV time on their own. In other words, television could be a conversational entrance and facilitated interactions among family members.
However, co-viewing time had only part of relations with relationships between children and parents. It indicates that the longer the children consumed television with an adult, the more frequent the parents talked with children about television content. Furthermore, co-viewing had negative relation with avoidance This finding were reversed with most of American findings. There is no relation could be found between co-viewing time and affiliation.
