Summary:碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 技術及職業教育研究所 === 102 === The main purpose of this study is to explore the status of aesthetic literacy among students in cosmetology-related departments and the differences of aesthetic literacy under various backgrounds. This study employed review of literature and questionnaires: first, the theoretical basis was investigated based on the literature; then students of cosmetology-related departments in TVE Institutions were researched, using questionnaires to facilitate the convenience sampling and statistical analysis. A total of 900 questionnaires were distributed and 815 questionnaires were returned which accounted for 90.6%. The result of, 800 questionnaires were effective. The study achieved the following results through the percentage, the mean value, standard deviation, t-test and one-way ANOVA were adopted on the analysis. Based on the analysis of the results of the study, the main conclusions are as follows: 1. Aesthetic Literacy was assessed in four categories. In the category “knowledge of art”, “artistic expression and appreciation skills” and “attitude towards art”, students of Cosmetology-related departments scored higher than the general University students, but in the category “habit of participation in the arts”, their score is below that of general University students&;apos;&;apos;. 2. In the “participation in the arts habit” category, students of Cosmetology-related departments scored lower than the general University students: the former are too passive and need to drastically improve their attitude. 3. In the “attitude towards art” category, Cosmetology- related students trend aesthetic is helpful to enhance the quality of life and aesthetic is helpless to economy. 4. In the “knowledge of art” and “artistic expression and appreciation skills” category, Cosmetology-related students scored better than general University students, but their knowledge in history of art was insufficiency and short of appreciation skills. 5. In the “habit of participation in the arts” category, male Cosmetology-related students scored better than female. For other categories, there are no differences between male and female students. 6. In the “knowledge of art” category, Cosmetology- related students of Northern district schools scored the lowest. In the “artistic expression and appreciation skills” category, students in Central district schools scored the lowest. The cause needs to be explored. 7. The scores of Cosmetology-related students in their senior year almost the same as that of students in their junior year, this is worthy of reflection. 8. The all scores of Cosmetology-related students who had previously studied design were better than of those who had studied Home Economics. 9. The four categories of aesthetic literacy of Cosmetology- related students currently studying design are better than those of other cosmetology students. Based on the conclusions of this study, we make several recommendations, which should provide reference for future curriculum development and teacher instruction.
