「LINE」進生命中：新住民家庭使用行動即時通訊之親子溝通研究

Abstract

新住民家庭因行動即時通訊（MIM）與LINE的普及，使親子溝通產生變化。筆者透過深度訪談法，針對20組受訪家庭梳理出下列研究結果。 首先，MIM溝通樣貌相當多元。多數受訪者認為MIM為FTF的延伸，部分受訪者覺得MIM與FTF並無太大差異，重點是訊息內容。另外，MIM使得溝通中人可以藉由忽略訊息而逃避互動，父母也能透過MIM來監控子女。其次，MIM造成性別化溝通。女性擅用貼圖與分享軟性文章，帶動對話氛圍，與男性不同，並間接轉化男性對於性別角色的傳統認知。然而，MIM與LINE也使得新住民家庭能更坦然的討論歧視問題。再者，MIM溝通策略兼具理性與感性兩種特色。依照不同的溝通情境，子女會選擇不同屬性的溝通策略與父母互動。最後，新住民家庭親子溝通因MIM產生質變。除了親職分工與性別認知的轉化外，MIM使得新住民家庭感受到永恆聯繫的珍貴連結，也更重視科技居家化的溝通訊息意義。

The spread of MIM and LINE in new immigrants’ families has changed parent-child communication. Through in-depth interviews of 20 families, the research results are shown as follow. First, MIM communication is quite diverse. Most interviewees think that MIM is an extension of FTF, and some interviewees feel that MIM and FTF are not too different. The focus is on the content of the message. In addition, MIM allows people in communication to avoid interaction by ignoring messages, and parents can monitor their children through MIM. Second, MIM creates gendered communication. Women are good at using stickers and sharing soft articles to promote a dialogue atmosphere, which is different from men, and indirectly transforms men’s traditional cognition of gender roles. However, MIM and LINE enable new immigrants’ families to discuss discrimination issues more frankly. Furthermore, MIM communication strategy has both rational and perceptual characteristics. According to different communication situations, children will choose communication strategies of different attributes to interact with their parents. Finally, parent-child communication among new immigrants’ families has undergone a qualitative change due to MIM. In addition to the division of labor and the transformation of gender cognition, MIM enables new immigrants’ families to feel the precious connection of eternal connection, and also pay more attention to the meaning of communication and information of technology domestication.
