One school was selected at each district in Taipei city for sampling while two schools at each district in Taipei county. The questionnaire was given to the parents of these children through the school teachers; 558 effective copies in total were returned for analysis after deletion of non- Taipei Rapid Transit System -passengers and ineffective copies.
The questionnaire included six aspects: territoriality, monitoring, images, surrounding environment, management and efficiency as well as sense of fear. Through the analysis of causes, the research hereby extract nine factors, named “Taipei Rapid Transit System offender protection factors,” in hopes of understanding the gap among passengers’ fear toward taking the Taipei Rapid Transit System based on the responses of questionnaire from those who had experiences of taking Taipei Rapid Transit System , and furthermore making suggestions for improvement. We, herein, conclude some points in the following: no obvious differences between the population characters of interviewees and “Taipei Rapid Transit System offender protection factors;” obvious differences of the population characters toward the sense of fear only existing toward “weekly taking times” and “monthly income;” obvious differences existing among three levels of sense of fear (high, middle & low) toward the Taipei Rapid Transit System offender protection factors; and “good monitoring,” “reliable supervision,” “consciousness of unsafety,” “usage of surrounding environment” and “income” were the factors affecting the sense offear.
Lastly, this study make suitable suggestions at current situation for improvement respectively from the views of passengers and managers as references for future passengers and managers.
