碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 教育心理與輔導學系 === 93 === Abstract The purpose of this study is to understand the subjective experience of hearing-impaired/deaf people. Based on the narrative research methods, it interviewed 5 participants by a semi-structural questionnaire. The participants shared their academic experience. The result is derived from the view of "Categorical-Form" analysis to treat the data. The result of this study is described as below: 1. The hearing-impaired/deaf people will face some difficulties caused by the frustration while interacting with other people, and unable to cope with those problems. a. The gap between in/out of the school for the hearing-impaired. b. The poor support systems in their academic environments. c. The pressure of difficulties neutralized the supporting resources. (The pressure vs. support systems.) d. The lack of support system. 2. The hearing-impaired/deaf students follow the process of adaptation when they have problems: "emotional chaotic status", "stability of emotion", "adjustment with positive or negative direction" and "break through a difficult situation or not”. This is also the process of self-acceptance. 3. The resilience comes from "Environmental assets" of family, teachers and friends, "Inner assets", and "Behavioral assets". It also describes how do these assets effect on enhancing resilience.. At last, these are some suggestions that related to the work for the hearing-impaired/deaf people, namely, teachers, parents, counselors and so on.
