本研究旨在瞭解臺北市某國立科技大學生一至四年級學生之「個人背景變項」、「家人關係」與「對老年人態度」現況，並分析不同「個人背景變項」的受試者在「家人關係」及「對老年人態度」上之差異狀況，和探討受試者之「家人關係」與「對老年人態度」的相關性。
本研究係採「問卷調查法」進行資料蒐集，並以「分層叢集取樣」之抽樣方式，於 2013 年 2 月至 3 月，選取臺北市某國立科技大學生為調查對象，正式抽樣樣本為 450 人，回收 438 份問卷，有效樣本數為 400 人，有效回收率為88.88%。所使用的研究工具包括：「個人背景資料」 18 題、「家人關係量表」17 題、「對老年人態度量表」 15 題。其結果以敘述統計、單一樣本 t 檢定、獨立樣本 t 檢定、單因子變異數分析、Scheffé 事後比較法、Pearson 積差相關、以及多元迴歸等統計方法加以分析。
本研究旨在探討臺北市某國立科技大學生家人關係與其對老年人態度之研究。研究結果為：
一、臺北市某國立科技大學生其「家人關係」傾向良好，尤其以「情感傳達」情形最為良好；「對老年人態度」趨於正向的態度，而以「情感意向」最為正向。
二、臺北市某國立科技大學生的「個人背景變項」與「家人關係」之差異情形為：
（一）小家庭在「情感傳達」情形上比單親家庭良好。
（二）與同住老年人相處愈親密，其家人關係愈良好。
（三）與老年人有互動者，其家人關係較沒有與老年人互動者良好。
（四）與未同住而有互動之老年人相處愈親密者，家人關係愈良好。
三、臺北市某國立科技大學生的「個人背景變項」與「對老年人態度」之差異情形為：
（一）年齡愈小，在「認知意向」上愈具正向態度。
（二）「一年級」學生比「四年級」學生在「認知意向」上具正向態度。
（三）「設計學院」學生較「管理學院」學生在「認知意向」上具正向態度。
（四）出生序為「老大」較「獨生子女」具正向態度。
（五）「中部地區」學生較「北部地區」學生在「情感意向」上具正向態度。
（六）與同住老年人相處愈親密，其「對老年人態度」愈正向。
（七）與老年人有互動者，除「認知意向」外，其整體「對老年人態度」、「情感意向」及「行為意向」較與老年人沒有互動者正向。
（八）與互動之老年人相處愈親密，其「對老年人態度」愈正向。
四、臺北市某國立科技大學生的「家人關係」與「對老年人態度」兩者間是具有相關性，且「家人關係」能預測「對老年人態度」。
本研究依據研究結果所提出建議如下：
（一）父母與親職代理人方面：親近家庭成員心理需求，促進溫馨和諧家人關係；健全家庭功能，親子共同參與成長團體及講座；安排親子家庭活動，建立良好示範行為。
（二）學校教育單位：規劃家人關係及老化教育相關課程，宣導與強化正向態度；提供服務老年人的互動機會，建構及儲備扶老資源。
（三）政府機關方面：善用大眾傳媒，強化家人關係與型塑老年人形象；提供代間活動場所，制定良好老年福祉政策。
（四）未來研究者方面：針對研究區域、樣本、方法、變項等給予經驗意見。
The study aims to investigate the correlations between family relationships and attitudes toward the elderly among college students in a public technology university in Taipei.The study used survey method to gather data and used stratified sampling procedures to select study participants. The survey instruments consists of three parts, including personal background (18 items), Family Relationships Questionnaire (17 items), and Attitudes toward the Elderly Scale (15 items). The study was conducted during February and March in 2013, and 450 questionnaires were distributed and 438 were returned. Among the returned questionnaires, 400 were valid. The response rate is 88.88%. Data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Scheffé post-hoc comparison, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression. The results are as followed:
1. Participants’ family relationships and interactions are most likely to be positive, especially on emotion expression. Their attitudes toward the elderly are most likely to be positive, especially on emotion intention.
2. Differences between background information and family relationships among participants include:
i. Emotion expression are frequently used in nuclear family than in single-parent family.
ii. The closer interactions participants have with coresided elderly, the more positive their family relationships are.
iii. Participants’ family relationships are more likely to be positive when they have interactions with the elderly.
iv. Participants’ family relationships are more likely to be positive when they have close interactions with the non-coresided elderly.
3. Differences between background information and attitudes toward the elderly among participants include:
i. The younger the participants, the more positive attitudes they have on cognition intention.
ii. Participants in the College of Design are more likely to have higher positive attitudes on cognition intention than those in the College of Management.
iii. Participants who are the eldest child are more likely to have positive attitudes than those who are the single child in the family.
iv. Participants’ attitudes toward the elderly are more positive when they have close interactions with coresided elderly.
4. Correlations are found between participants’ family relationships and attitudes toward the elderly, and family relationships are found to be the predictor of attitudes toward the elderly.
Based on the findings, the researcher suggest that:
1. Parents are encouraged to be aware of family relationships and positive interactions.
2. Schools are encouraged to offer courses related to family relationships and gerontology to improve positive attitudes toward the elderly.
3. The government agency is encouraged to provide sufficient space and areas for intergenerational interaction.
