Summary: | 碩士 === 大葉大學 === 教育專業發展研究所 === 103 === The thesis is dedicated to exploring the factors influencing family needs of preschool children with disabilities by using the SNELS dataset. Firstly, nineteen variables related to special educational needs are extracted from references and regarded as background factors of subjects. Moreover, family needs are classified as Spiritual Needs, Information Needs, Service Needs, Professional Needs, and Economic Needs. Secondly, two facets of Information Needs related to parenting methods are established by the machinery of factor analysis, namely “Autonomy or Control (AC)” and “Care and Support (CS)”. Thirdly, background factors are evaluated and graded by the Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) procedure according to their own impact on AC and CS, respectively. It follows that the three most important background factors are determined for both facets. More precisely, those influential factors consist mainly of “parental age” and “number of children”. In view of the foregoing results, three-way ANOVA is applied to differentiate respective varieties of AC and CS.
