中文摘要 本研究運用Kirkpatrick四層次學習成效評估模式，探討中高齡者參與芳香療法課程後的學習反應、知識技能獲得、行為轉化與生活成效。本研究動機在於補足既有研究多著重芳香療法療效，而較少探討透過「學習芳香療法」所帶來的成效之研究缺口，以凸顯本研究的創新性與價值。研究對象為8位45歲以上學員，透過半結構式訪談蒐集資料。結果顯示：學員對課程內容與實作方式反應良好，特別重視操作體驗與同儕互動；在學習層次，能掌握精油知識與按摩技巧，並提升自我照護能力；於行為層次，多數人將所學應用於睡眠改善、情緒調節與疼痛舒緩，也擴展至家庭照顧與居家環境管理；在成果層次，學員普遍反映身心健康提升、人際互動改善，自主健康管理行為逐步養成。研究證實芳療課程具備實用性與延續性，建議課程設計應加強體驗導向與社區連結，以促進中高齡者健康促進與生活品質提升。

A Study on the Learning Effectiveness of Middle-aged and Older Adults Participating in an Aromatherapy Program
Chang, H.-C., Lee, Y.-H.
English Abstract This study employed Kirkpatrick’s four-level evaluation model to examine the learning effectiveness of middle-aged and older adults participating in an aromatherapy program, focusing on reaction, learning, behavior, and results. The motivation of this study was to address the research gap in which existing studies have largely emphasized the therapeutic effects of aromatherapy, while relatively few have explored the outcomes derived from learning aromatherapy, thereby highlighting the novelty and value of this study. Eight participants aged 45 and above were selected for semi-structured interviews. Findings revealed that participants responded positively to the course content and hands-on activities, especially valuing experiential practice and peer interaction. At the learning level, they acquired essential knowledge of essential oils and massage techniques, enhancing their self-care abilities. In terms of behavior, most applied what they learned to improve sleep, manage emotions, and relieve pain, extending their practice to family care and home environment management. At the results level, participants reported improvements in physical and mental health, enhanced social interactions, and the development of self-directed health management habits. The study confirms that aromatherapy courses are practical and sustainable for promoting health among older adults. It is recommended that future course designs emphasize experiential learning and community engagement to enhance the well-being and quality of life of this population.Keywords：middle-aged and older adults, aromatherapy, learning effectiveness, Kirkpatrick model
