以潛在成長模式探索國中生放學後做家事時間成長對幸福感變化的影響

Using Latent Growth Modeling to Explore the Impact of Growth of the Time Spent Doing Housework After School on Changes of Well- Being Among Junior High School Students

本研究旨在探討國中生放學後做家事時間成長與幸福感變化軌跡，並分析放學後做家事時間成長對幸福感變化的影響，以基隆市國中生學習狀況資料庫之八年級下學期、九年級上學期與下學期共三個時間點的3，525名學生資料，透過潛在成長模式分析顯示：國中生做家事時間成長軌跡呈U型發展趨勢，八年級下學期做家事時間多，九年級上學期最少，九年級下學期最多；然而幸福感則是隨著學期往後推移逐漸上升，八年級下學期幸福感最低，九年級下學期最高。學生在八年級下學期放學後做家事時間愈多，八年級下學期的幸福感愈好；同時三學期做家事時間變化對於三學期幸福感成長有提升效果。學校及教師和家長應鼓勵學生放學後分配時間，主動協助做家事，這有益於學生的幸福感逐學期提升。

The purpose of this study is to explore the growth of the time spent doing housework after school and the change trajectory of hap¬piness among junior high school students, and to analyze the impact of the growth of time spent doing housework after school on changes in well-being. Based on the second semester of eighth grade in the learning status database of junior high school students in Keelung city, the data of 3,525 students at three time points in the first semester and the sec¬ond semester of ninth grade, through potential growth model analysis, showed that the growth trajectory of junior high school students’time doing housework shows a U-shaped development trend, and the second semester of eighth grade students spend more time doing housework. The lowest level was in the first semester of ninth grade, and the highest level was in the second semester of ninth grade. However, well-being gradually increases as the semester goes by. The lowest level of well-being was in the second semester of eighth grade, and the highest level was in the second semester of ninth grade. The more time students spent doing housework after school in the second semester of eighth grade, the better their well-being will be in the second semester of eighth grade. At the same time, the increase in housework time in the three semesters had an increasing effect on the growth of happiness in the three semesters. Schools, teach¬ers and parents should encourage students to allocate time after school and take the initiative to help with housework, which will help students’happiness improve semester by semester.
