Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣師範大學 === 衛生教育學系 === 93 === The purpose of this study is to understand the relationship among the Meaning of Life , Death Attitude and Self–injury of senior high school students in Taipei. The data was collected by self-administered questionnaires from 802 students of 7 senior high schools in Taipei, and analyzed using SPSS 12.0 for t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson’s product-moment correlation, canonical correlation and multiple regression. The main findings of this study are as follows. 1.On the whole, the Meaning of Life of senior high school students is above the average, and they accept death peacefully , and the high frequency of Self–injury is not so serious. But the percentages of the thought of Self–injury and the thought of ways of Self–injury are more than 50%. 2.There are significant differences in the correlation among the Meaning of Life, Death Attitude and Self–injury of the senior high school students in Taipei in age , gender , religious belief , talking about death home, academic achievements , health status , family relationships and interpersonal relationship . 3.The relationship between the Meaning of Life and Death Attitude: (1)The higher existential frustration a person feels, the higher escape acceptance he/she feels. On the contrary, if a person has stronger the will to meaning , greater life purposes and life control , than he/she has lower escape acceptance. (2)higher the will to meaning, life control and suffering acceptance come higher fear of death, death avoidance and neutral acceptance. (3)higher life purpose and suffering acceptance come lower fear of death and higher approaching acceptance and escape acceptance. 4.In the Meaning of Life ,we can not explain the impact of the will to meaning , life purpose and suffering acceptance to Self–injury independently. The main and minority variables are existential frustration and life control. Higher existential frustration comes higher Self–injury. Higher life control comes lower Self–injury. 5.In the Death Attitude, we can not explain the impact of Death Avoidance to Self–injury independently. Higher fear of death and escape acceptance come higher Self–injury. Higher approaching acceptance comes lower Self–injury. Based on these findings, I make suggestions for future research and educational intervention. Key words:Meaning of Life , Death Attitude, Self–injury
