中文摘要 面對高齡少子化,個人對未來宜提早規劃與準備,倘能以預防性與積極性的前瞻思維接受老化的來臨,提前預備與持續學習健康促進生活型態,有助於避免與消除晚年生活潛在壓力。本研究主要目的包括:(1)瞭解以志願服務形式實現生產性老化(productive aging)退休者之內涵與效益;(2)探討從事志願服務者生產性老化的前瞻因應特質;(3)了解退休後依然活躍者的前瞻因應特質及與生產性老化之關係。本研究以質性研究方法,採立意取樣,半結構式深度訪談法,應用前瞻因應理論,以滾雪球的方式,選取八位參與志願服務工作三年以上之中高齡退休者為研究對象,進行訪談,以蒐集資料並進行分析。研究結果發現,在以志願服務形式實現生產性老化退休者之內涵與效益方面:(1)退休者貢獻類型符合生產性老化之工作就業、個人成長、家庭照顧及社會參與類型,效益顯現於個人、家庭及社區層面;(2)高齡者積極參與社會可以增強和保持身體、心理和認知健康;(3)實現志願服務的生產性老化可利己利他,帶來成就感與價值感。生產性老化者的前瞻因應特質包括:(1)能夠預見未來,在退休前會預作準備與規劃;(2)透過擔任志工及學習技能累積資源;(3)設定理想與生命目標,採行適合自身的因應策略逐步實現。在前瞻因應與生產性老化關係之分析部分:(1)前瞻因應是生產性老化的寶貴策略;(2)生產性老化透過前瞻因應,具有加乘正向循環的效果。
