女性主義團體輔導對自傷兒童自我認同之行動研究

An Action Study of Feminist Group Counseling on the Self-Identity of Children Who Self-Injured

本研究旨在以女性主義取向團體輔導方案的介入，探討具有自傷行為兒童在團體歷程中的自我認同發展。本研究採取行動研究，招募五名國小六年級學童為研究對象（四女一男），進行每週一次，一次四十分鐘，為期八次的小團體輔導。團體設計以女性主義諮商理論為本，涵蓋身份覺察、賦能、敘說、平權等重要議題。透過省思札記、成員及師長的訪談記錄、觀察員的觀察與回饋等多種方式蒐集資料，結合三角驗證方式分析，以瞭解具有自傷行為兒童在女性主義團體輔導歷程之經驗內涵。重要結果如下：一、女性主義取向強調團體敘說、平權關係與支持關懷，促使學童有機會自我揭露生命故事，從而連結彼此。二、女性主義團體輔導方案的介入，有助於學童對社會角色的覺察，轉化以正向觀點定義自己，增進改變的行動力。三、學童在團體的普同經驗，促使學童降低孤獨感，進而坦然面對自傷與真實自我。四、學童覺察與肯定其優勢能力，提升我能感，促使增進自信心與自我認同。五、在團體歷程中的行動與改變，促進學童對自我的賦權，進而提升自我認同與悅納，進而將改變實踐於日常生活。

 

This study explored the self-identity development of children with non-suicidal self-injury behavior through a feminist-oriented group counseling program intervention. This study adopted an action research approach and included five participants from the sixth grade: four females and one male. The group met once a week for 40 minutes each time, for eight weeks. The group project involved doctrines of feminist counseling theory, including awareness, empowerment, narrative, and equality. Data were collected through the researcher’s reflections, observer’s notes, and interviews with the participants and with the participants’ teachers and parents. The researcher analyzed data and verified the analysis by using the triangulation method. This study’s findings are summarized as follows: 1. The narratives, equality, and supportive care that the feminist group counseling approach emphasizes provided the self-harm student participants the opportunities to tell and re-tell their life stories; disclosing their stories helped them connect to the other participants. 2. The group counseling intervention helped students aware of their social roles, transform their thoughts into a positive perspective, and enhance their capacities to change. 3. The common experience that the students shared during the group process helped reduce their loneliness, rethink their self-harm behaviors, and face their true selves openly. 4. Through the group process, students gained more awareness and confidence regarding their strengths in abilities, enhanced their sense of power, and fostered a strong sense of self-identity. 5. The action and change during the group process facilitated the students’ self-empowerment, enriched their self-identity and self-acceptance, and finally, helped them implement changes in everyday life.
