碩士 === 國立臺北大學 === 社會學系 === 105 === In order to understand the extent and differences in the state of household participation of male officials in the bureau of investigation, this study was conducted on the basis of "father", "officer " and "household participation" as the three main axes. Our findings indicate that the upbringing of patriarchal environment and the irregular and demanding work schedules have limited the sampled subjects’ participation on housework, and brought with them a sense of losing their manhood status even when they do participate. The study also finds that the male officers invest more time and show more initiative to participate in child care which indicates the lack of participation on housework may link more to their masculinity attitude than to their irregular work schedules.
