Liu, Jinyu. "Caregiver strain among Chinese adult children of oldest old parents." Diss., University of Iowa, 2013. https://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/2568.
Full textAbstract:
The fast growth of the Chinese oldest old population indicates higher demand for long-term care. In China, families assume the primary responsibility of caring for older adults. Since the oldest elders are more likely to be widowed, their adult children usually become their caregivers. Focusing on the Chinese adult children who provide care for their oldest-old parents, this study documented and helped to explain Chinese adult children's caregiving strain. A conceptual framework was developed based on Pearlin's stress process theory, Higgins' framework of self-concept discrepancy, and previous studies on family caregivers of elders. Using an existing dataset from the 2005 Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey of 895 caregivers and their care recipients, the researcher tested whether and how caregiving context (caregiver's structured context and care recipients' needs for care), caregiving performance, and sibling support were related to five types of caregiving strain including sacrifice strain, exhaustion strain, capability strain, expectation strain, and dependency strain.
The results indicate that caregiving context and caregiving performance are statistically related to different types of caregiver strain. Three independent variables in the set of caregiving context, self-evaluation of living standard, education, and cultural identity, were related to two types of caregiver strain in different directions. The caregivers who were the eldest sons, who were females caring for female elders, who had a close relationship with their care recipients, who lived with the care recipients, who provided care for the elders with more needs for care in ADL (Activities of Daily Living), or whose care recipients had health insurance reported higher levels of at least one type of caregiver strain. Care recipients' cognitive status and entitlement to pension were negatively related to at least one type of caregiver strain. Caregivers' rural residence, having a job outside the family, having a child under age 16, and care recipient's needs for care in IADL (Instrumental Activities of Daily Living) were not found to be related to any type of caregiver strain.
Monetary assistance, which was indicated by the proportion of their annual household per capita income that the caregivers provided to care recipients, was found to be positively related to caregivers' capability strain. The amount of time spent in caregiving (time assistance) was positively related to three types of caregiver strain: exhaustion, expectation, and dependency strain. Time assistance was also found to mediate the relationship between care recipients' needs for care in ADL and caregivers' exhaustion strain and the relationship between dependency strain and three caregiving context variables: closeness between caregivers and care recipients, co-residence with care recipients, and care recipients' needs for care in ADL.
The results revealed the importance of caregiving context and caregiving performance in explaining Chinese adult-child caregivers' experience and the necessity of investigating caregiver strain in different dimensions. This study contributes to understanding caregiver strain from a filial perspective. The results imply directions for future research, social work practice and education, and policy legislation in addressing Chinese adult children's strain in caring for their oldest-old parents.

Full textAbstract:
Schistosomiasis, a disease of humans caused by helminth parasites of the genus Schistosoma, kills 200 to 500 thousand people annually, endangering over 600 million people world-wide with 200 million people infected in 2003 [1, 2]. Three species of schistosome are primarily responsible for human infections, namely, Schistosoma haematobium, endemic to Africa, India, and the Middle East, S. mansoni, endemic to Africa / South America, and S. japonicum endemic to China and the Philippines [3]. The major pathological effects of schistosomiasis result from the deposition of parasite ova in human tissues and the subsequent intense granulomatous response induced by these eggs. There is a high priority to provide an effective sub-unit vaccine against these schistosome flukes, using proteins encoded by cDNAs expressed by the parasites at critical phases of their development. One technique that may expedite this gene identification is the use of microarrays for expression analysis. A 22,575 feature custom oligonucleotide DNA microarray designed from public domain databases of schistosome ESTs (Expressed Sequence Tags) was used to explore differential gene expression between the Philippine (SJP) and Chinese (SJC) strains of S. japonicum, and between males and females. It was found that 593, 664 and 426 probes were differentially expressed between the two geographical strains when mix sexed adults, male worms and female worms were compared respectively. Additionally, the study revealed that 1,163 male- and 1,016 female-associated probes were differentially expressed in SJP whereas 1,047 male- and 897 female-associated probes were differentially expressed in SJC [4]. Further to this, a detailed real time PCR expression study was used to explore the differential expression of eight genes of interest throughout the SJC life cycle, which showed that several of the genes were down-regulated in different life cycle stages. The study has greatly expanded previously published data of strain and gender-associated differential expression in S. japonicum. Further, the new data will provide a stepping stone for understanding the complexities of the biology, sexual differentiation, maturation, and development of human schistosomes, signaling new approaches for identifying novel intervention and diagnostic targets against schistosomiasis [4].

Full textAbstract:
The one-China issue before the 1990s was not particularly complex as both sides of the Taiwan Strait claimed that there was only one China in the world and Taiwan was part of China. Nevertheless, after Taiwan accelerated democratisation in the early 1990s, and especially after 1996 when it entered a stage of democratic consolidation, the one-China issue has become a bitter controversy.
Taiwan was transformed from an authoritarian regime to a democracy through the revision of the constitution and the reform of elections for the Legislative Yüan and the presidency between 1991 and 1996. Democratisation not only legitimised the government�s rule on Taiwan, but also brought about Taiwanese nationalism, which forced the government to defend the sovereignty to which its democratic and economic achievements now entitled it. As the PRC has always claimed sovereignty over Taiwan, the one-China controversy has thus focused on Taiwan�s international status since the 1990s. In order to prevent Taiwan from declaring independence, the PRC adopted a carrot and stick strategy, but failed. Its "peaceful reunification" policy and the "one country, two systems" formula could not attract the Taiwanese, and its military threats were blocked by the US, which has strongly demanded a peaceful resolution for cross-Strait disputes since 1979.
As the US also needs the PRC�s cooperation in many international areas, it did not support Taiwan�s formal independence. Under such circumstances, maintaining the status quo of the Taiwan Strait becomes the best choice for the three sides. The one-China controversy is not expected to be resolved in the near future.
Democracy has been promoted as a universal value since the Cold War. As Taiwan has not ruled out the possibility of future democratic unification with the Mainland, the best way to resolve the one-China controversy might be the successful democratisation of the PRC, which the international community would welcome.

Chi, Chia-Lin. "Lee Teng-Hui’s political cross-straits policy and mainland china’s reaction." Thesis, University of Pretoria, 2004. http://hdl.handle.net/2263/28534.
Full textAbstract:
By the end of the twentieth century, there were many secessionist groups, but, the move towards Taiwanese secessionism has arguably been the most significant of these. It triggered the 1996 Taiwan Strait Crisis, which resulted in a historical military confrontation between Mainland China and the US. As will be shown, from 1988 to 2000, Lee Teng-hui, as president of Taiwan, manipulated the political Cross-Straits relationship to promote what was ultimately a secessionist policy. This caused Mainland China to react strongly and triggered sharp tension between Taiwan and Mainland China. This thesis considers what motivated Lee Teng-hui to implement a secessionist Cross-Straits policy and why he supported unification while adopting a substantive secessionist policy. It looks at how he was able to instigate Taiwanese hostility towards Mainlanders, to transform the hostility into a sense of Taiwanese national identity and ultimately into Taiwanese secessionist ideology. A historical approach was used in exploring the origins of secessionism, and descriptive and analytical methods to review systematically and comprehensively political developments in the ROC and its civil war, and to study Lee Teng-hui’s life; the national identity of Taiwan and Mainland China; the implementation of Lee Teng-hui’s political Cross-Straits policy; and the reaction of Mainland China. The study showed that the main cause of Taiwanese secessionism was ethnic conflict between Taiwanese and Mainlanders. It originated from the 228 Incident of 1947, in which Mainlander-led troops slaughtered many Taiwanese. Soon after, the Mainlander-led government fled to Taiwan from Mainland China, and many Taiwanese (including Mainlanders) were killed during the State of Emergency in the 1950s and 1960s. Since the Mainlander-led government fled to Taiwan in its original central government form, the Mainlander élite occupied key positions in the government during the 1950s and 1960s. It resulted in unfair power-sharing for Taiwanese, and caused the Taiwanese élite to believe that they had to establish their own government (nation). Lee Teng-hui had participated in the CCP and had been under political surveillance by the Mainlander-led government for over twenty years. He weathered these political difficulties, but by reasonable inference, there was a close relationship between the political oppression by the Mainlander-led government and his secessionist political Cross-Straits policy. Because Taiwanese residents were indoctrinated by Chiang Ching-kuo and his father, Chiang Kai-shek’s administration for about 40 years, Chinese ideology was dominant and Lee Teng-hui initially paid lip-service to Cross-Strait unification whilst working towards secessionism as reflected in the Chingdao-Lake Incident (1994); the private dialogue between Lee Teng-hui and Shiba Ryotaro (1994); the address at Cornell University (1995); and his two-state theory (1999). However, due to strong pressure from Mainland China, he did not reach his secessionist goal during his presidential term (1988-2000). In conclusion, this thesis shows that Taiwan Island’s geopolitical importance is at the heart of the US’ support for Taiwan’s secession from the Mainland. Therefore, Lee’s secessionist Cross-Strait policy aside, US national interests lie in containing Mainland China and it has, therefore, always played an important role in the secessionist issue and always will. From the perspective of Mainland China, either in terms of nationalism or national security, Taiwan’s secession is a life-and-death issue. If Taiwanese authorities were to declare independence, the only option for Mainland China would be to launch a unification war. For the US, Taiwan is only a pawn that it uses to contain Mainland China. Therefore, in the Cross-Strait issue, the US has more options than Mainland China, namely, to use military intervention in the future to deter Chinese unification or to decide to share common peaceful international relations with Mainland China by accepting Cross-Strait unification.Thesis (DPhil (International Relations))--University of Pretoria, 2004.

The aim of the research was to explore relations between various work stressor and strain, in the cultural context of Greater China, including Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the Mainland. In addition to job satisfaction, personal well-being indicated by physical and behavioral symptoms, was also examined as the strain factor. Both the main effect and possible moderating effect of endorsing Chinese work values were explored in the work stress process. Using structured questionnaires, a total sample of 380 full-time employees in the three regions were surveyed. Analyses revealed that for Chinese employees in all three regions, the main nexus of work stress – strain was established. However, different indicators of strain were significantly predicted by different sources of work stress: (1) “organizational climate” and “work autonomy” predicted job satisfaction; (2) “interpersonal conflict” and “work overload” predicted physical symptoms; (3) “organizational climate”, “interpersonal conflict” and “work overload” predicted behavioral symptoms. The “hardworking” component of Chinese work values was found to be related to all three indicators of strain, demonstrating its main effect on stress outcome: the high endorsement of “hardworking” value was generally related to reduce strain. More importantly, we found that “hardworking” as a Chinese work value buffered the noxious effect of “interpersonal conflict”, but exacerbated that of “work overload” on job satisfaction. Although these moderating effect should be further replicated in future studies, they serve to highlight the need to comprehensively understand the work environment in interpreting roles of work stress and work values, as well as their intricate interactions for Chinese employees working in the collectivistic culture.

Glutathione S-transferase (GST) is generally recognized by WHO as one of the major candidate vaccine antigens against Schistosome infections. The dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages (Mψ) are antigen -presenting cells (APC), especially dendritic cells, acquire antigens in peripheral tissues and migrate to lymphoid organs where they present processed peptides to T cells, and induce innate and then acquired immune responses. In order to understand the interaction and immuno -modulation of dendritic cells, macrophages and 26KDa rGST vaccine antigen of Schistosoma japonicum, Flow cytometry and confocal laser scanning microscope were used to perform this study. The results showed that DC from mice immunized with 26KDa rGST antigen expressed strongly class II MHC and the CD8α+, but lesser on macrophages. The presentation of location of GST on DC is overlaped with class II MHC based on the obserotion of confocal laser scanning microscope. This result demonstrates that DC stimulated with rGST could process via incorporation of class II MHC molecule and present as GST antigen. Furthermore, we found that DCs of mice immunized with GST were re-stimulated rapidly and activated apparently while eggs produced, after seven weeks of infection. the CD8α+ marker started expressed on DCs continuously to chronic stage. In addition, the class II MHC increased markedly on macrophage after five and seven weeks of infection. These results suggested the antigen presenting ability of DC induced by rGST vaccine antigen come mainly from the GST of eggs, which lead to effective increase of host immune response against schistosome infection.

Since the property of Chinese herbal patch has extensive space to develop, we still did not build a well defined assessment of the clinical effects in Taiwan. Our objective is to compare the therapeutic effects and adverse effects between Chinese herbal patch Wan-Yin-Gao and Indomethacin patch on upper extremity tendinitis induced by Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI). In this double blind randomized controlled trial, we recruited 64 patients with tennis elbow or deQuervain’s disease from out-patient clinics of Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. The herbal formula, Wan-Yin-Gao patch, was given to the experimental group, while the Indomethacin patch was given to the control group twice a day, 6 hours each time for 2 weeks. We assessed the therapeutic effects on range of motion , pain-relief, muscle power, quality of life and the adverse reaction in both groups. There were 41 cases in the experimental group, average age 40.4 ± 11.8 years old, and 23 cases in the control group, age 40.7 ± 11.2 years old. The results indicated that there was no significance difference between two group in average age, sex and severity. Visual Analogue Scale test showed patients with deQuervain’s disease (p<0.001; p=0.001) in the experimental group was better than the other subgroups on pain relief and range of motion. Muscle power was improved after treatment in the control group (p=0.03) and had an improved tendency in the experimental group (p=0.09). The Medical Outcome Survey Short Form-36 assessment revealed better effect on pain relief in the control group (p=0.04) while the adverse reaction was less reported in the experimental group. In conclusion, the herbal patch Wan-Yin-Gao and the Indomethacin patch have almost the same therapeutic effects in the clinical evaluation while the adverse effect is not significant different in this study.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the utilization and to explore its related factors of Traditional Chinese medicine, Western medicine and combine treatment among dislocation, sprain and strain cases in the Central Bureau of National Health Insurance Branch. The data was from Chinese and Western medicine files of the Central Bureau of National Health Insurance Branch in 2003. Those who had not been diagnosed as ICD_9_CM 830-848 within one month in same diagnosis were defined as one treatment course. A total of 493,011 cases were analyzed using student’s t test and ANOVA (Analysis of Variance). Multiple regression analysis was used to explore its related factors. The important findings of this research were as followed: 1. 291,145 (66.32%) of dislocation, sprain and sprain clients utilized Chinese medicine; 136,040 (30.99%) utilized Western medicine; 11,826 (2.69%) combined both. Substituting effects between Chinese and Western medicine can be identified in treatment for dislocation, sprain and sprain. 2. Those combined use of traditional Chinese and western medicine had higher number of visits, medical expenditure and treatment period than those only use either Chinese or Western medicine. Those use only traditional Chinese medicine had higher number of visits, medical expenditure and treatment period than the Western medicine users. 3. Among various diagnoses, ICD_9_CM 847 “Sprains and strains of other and unspecified parts of back” ranked highest frequency among all subjects. ICD _9_CM 848 “Other and ill-definded sprains and strains” ranked highest among western medicine users. ICD_9_CM 847 was also the most popular diagnosis in traditional Chinese medicine users. ICD_9_CM 845 “sprains and strains of ankle and foot” was highest among those combine treatment users. The ambulatory utilization was higher in dislocation than sprains and strains. 4. Predisposing factors: Traditional Chinese medicine users were in average younger than the Western medicine users. Number of visits, medical expenditure and treatment period were increased with age in either types of treatment. Women also utilized more than men in number of visits, medical expenditure and treatment period. Beneficiaries by beneficiary category, category 5 “low income” and insurers (not their dependents) had higher utilization. 5. Enabling factors: Subjects with waived copayment had higher utilization in number of visits, medical expenditure and treatment period than their counterparts. Most western medicine and combined treatment users (73-76%) and 98% of traditional Chinese medicine users went clinics for treatment. The mean medical expenditure was higher in medical centers and metropolitan hospitals for western medicine users. The utilization were higher in metropolitan hospitals in Chinese medicine users. There was a positive correlation between number of physical therapists per ten thousand populations and utilization. 6. Needs factors: The patients with chronic diseases or major illness utilized more number of visits, medical expenditure and treatment period in Western medicine, Chinese medicine or combine treatment than those without. Synthesize the above results, recommendations were as followed: 1. In order to improve the combination therapeutic effect of traditional Chinese and western medicine, physicians should identify the utilization patterns and policy should be made to advice physicians to notice this utilization patterns. 2. Evidence-based medicine or cost-effective studies should be conducted to further development of Western medicine, Chinese medicine or combined treatment 3. Chinese herbalist clinic should be reinforced to participate at the family physician's system ran the plan as an experiment, act the family physician role. 4. Policy on waived copayment should be reexamined. 5. Prevention on sprains and strains from happening should be emphasized to prevent overutilization of medical resources.

The history of Chinese-Panamanian begins at the year 1854, when China was under the Ching Dynasty. There were civil wars and also enemies from the outside, time was hard and has forced the people to work overseas as contract workers. In this research have tried to answer the main reason why people want to leave the country, and most of them were forced or drugged to work underpaid. Luckily, for the time being, overseas Chinese had made their way for living around and also Panama. After the cross-strait governments had there own overseas Chinese affairs policy, the way they treated overseas Chinese has influence and changed their perspective of the relationship between the government and themselves.

Due to independent governance for more than half of a century, there is difference in vocabulary and phonetics between Taiwan and mainland, especially the phonetics which is the foundation to learn asecond language. A good textbook can facilitate teaching the learning. This paper takes the cross-strait phonetic textbooks specially compiled for foreigners to learn Chinese as the study material and makes comparative analysis ofDigital Chinese Pronunciation published in Taiwan and Chinese Pronunciation Course published in Mainland China. In this paper, Chapter One Introduction illustrates the study motivation, study purpose, study scope and method. The phonetics may vary with different time and space, even for Taiwan and mainland with Chinese as the mothertongue. Moreover, a good textbook can facilitate the teaching the learning for a second language. Therefore, this study aims to review the overall layout of the cross-strait phonetic textbooks and explore their similarities and differences in the use of tone, initial consonant and final consonant. Chapter Two Literature Review explores the methods and principles of textbook compiling and phonetic teaching as well as cross-strait phonetic standards and differences. Chapter Three compares the tones compiled in Digital Chinese Pronunciation and Chinese Pronunciation Course, describes the layout and analyzes the tones of these two textbooks. Both are specially designed for foreigners to learn Chinese, which focus on the learning difficulties for foreign learners and strengthen the training of verbal communicationability. Chapter Fourcompares the initial consonants compiled in Digital Chinese Pronunciation and Chinese Pronunciation Course, describes the phonetic places and methods of initial consonants, and analyzes the layout of the initial consonants. The layout of Digital Chinese Pronunciation follows the sequenceof the planning, which shares common points but lacks sharp contrast. Chinese Pronunciation Course follows theteaching idea from the external to internal based on place of articulation. Chapter Five compares the final consonants compiled in Digital Chinese Pronunciation and Chinese Pronunciation Course, describes the key points of teaching and manner of articulation, and analyzes the layout of the last consonants. While introducing each final consonant in terms of final consonants compilation, both textbooksadd the practice method of “following the teacher to speak”, which fully carries out the teaching spirit of listening and speaking and shows the idea of focusing on acquisition. Chapter Six draws some conclusions based on above study results. Through the comparison results of the cross-strait Chinese phonetic textbooks in this paper, it is found the tones show the most difference in terms of phonetic difference in the textbooks, and the phonetic symbols on the textbooks are not all the same as the dictionaries. Furthermore, the phonetic symbols of differentreference books and Chinese textbooks show difference as well.

Mobile payment is an emerging and important application of mobile commerce. The adoption and use of mobile payment services are important for both service providers and consumers. However, previous studies mostly used TAM Technology Acceptance Model) and UTAUT (Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology) models to investigate mobile payments, therefore, this study integrates facilitators (compatibility, perceived transaction convenience, habit and social influence), inhibitors (perceived security risk and privacy concern), environment factors (government support and addition value), and personal factors (personal innovativeness in information technology and absorption capacity) investigate these determinants of apoption intention of mobile payment across the coross-strait Chiness comparsion. An integrated research model is developed and empirically tested by using structural equation modeling. A total of 617 valid responses were collected, with 323 were from Taiwanese consumers and 294 were from Chinese consumers. Our findings show that: (1) Taiwan's consumers' compatibility and perceived transaction convenience have a significant impact on adoption intentions; (2) Habit of consumers in China have a significant influence on their adoption intentions; (3) For cross-strait Chinese, perceived security risks, government support, absorption capacity, and absorption capacity have a significant impact on adoption intentions. This study provides relevant suggestions for mobile payment providers as a reference for forming effectives strategies to increase consumer use of mobile payment service intention.

This thesis attempts to examine the acceptance of Chinese technology brand among Taiwanese consumer under the context of cross-strait culture. This study combines the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Country-Of-Origin Effect to propose a Cross-Strait Technology Acceptance Model. This thesis examines the roles of China’s country image, Consumer Ethnocentrism, Consumer Animosity and their effects on Taiwanese consumers’ acceptance of Chinese technology brand. Using an online questionnaire, a total of 558 valid samples, participated in this study during July, 2015. Findings of this study suggest that the image of China and the attitude toward Chinese technology product have positive association with the acceptance of Chinese technology brand. However, Ethnocentrism exerts negative influence on the acceptance of Chinese technology brand. Taiwanese consumers’ attitude toward Chinese technology products moderates the relationship. The more Taiwanese consumers have animosity toward Chinese technology products, the more they have negative attitude toward Chinese technology products. With this way, Taiwanese consumers have less intention to use Chinese technology products.

Results of this study as follow: Taiwan’s Chinese textbook choose children’s poetry in ratio 20%. There is more than 12% in comparison with China so that we may know Taiwan pay more attention on children’s poetry than China. China mark origin of children’s poetry much clear than Taiwan and choose famous expert’s works quite much. Children’s poetry of Taiwan mostly use children’s living experience for subject matter but china gives undue emphasis to natural landscape. Subject of Taiwan 「love and environment」shows protection for global environment. Children’s poetry of China version is full of adoration for its homeland. Application for type of image is mostly in the image of Nature Cross-strait. Cross-strait children’s poetry of Skills for figure of speech is rich. China use figure of speech times more than Taiwan. Same children’s poetry use more than two types skills for figure of speech. At most figure of speech is 「AND」。 Cross-strait children’s poetry presented mostly joyful and vivid moods. Generally vowels of a Chinese syllable use mostly 「ㄤ、ㄢ、ㄠ、ㄚ、ㄥ」

This study attempted to uncover the causes, structures and operations of Chinese-Taiwan cross-strait human smuggling organizations. In this study, human smugglers are divided to three groups, which are Chinese snakeheads organizations, smugglers at sea organizations and Taiwanese snakeheads organizations based on levels and operations of these human smugglers organizations. This study analyzes backgrounds of individuals involved in human smuggling, the division of labor of these organizations, the process of human smuggling, profit-gaining and risk-bearing of human smuggling business. Analysis of the historical factors of human smuggling and the way prostitution markets affect human smuggling are also included in this study. This study explained kinds of human smugglers’ behaviors applying Rational Choice Approach, Routine Activity Theory, Supply and Demand and Law of Comparative Advantage. The researcher conducted interviews with nine individuals, including human smugglers, captains of fishing trawler, prostitution service providers, officers of Coast Guard Administration and female illegal Chinese immigrants to know more about the present practices, profits and risks of human smuggling, in order to analyze the evolution of the human smuggling mode and to forecast its future tendency. Results of this study indicate: there are three different kinds of human smugglers organizations structures, including the single-headed structure, the double-headed structure and the mutually-insured structure. There are developed as the human smuggling modes changed. The lack of monitors caused by crowd out of the law enforcers based on law of comparative advantage is the cause of development of human smuggling. However, as external factors, due to diversification of prostitution channels, event of August 26th 2003 and the expanding prostitution market in China, the cross-strait human smuggling are also gradually declining. In the final chapter, this study suggests the government to enhance people’s awareness of human smuggling-related regulations, to promote rewarding systems of law enforcers and to establish databases of crime records. Researches on combining theories and practices and continuing are recommended.

Economic development has given rise to the revival of tea culture, and the cultural industry is a crucial factor that drives such a development. Contemporary and innovative designs have brought about large numbers of innovations and new phenomena, thereby changing the lifestyle of people. As people gradually become accustomed to a busy lifestyle molded by the modern society, they do not appreciate the beauty of artifacts anymore, and replace these traditional tools with substitutes. Such a phenomenon distances people from the use of traditional artifacts and engenders the diversification of tea drinking habits. Recently, cross-strait exchanges have become frequent, boosting the development of tea culture on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. As a symbol of traditional culture, the influence of teaware cannot be underestimated. Through a literature review, expert interviews, and comparisons between similar products, this study explored the status quo of contemporary tea art and teaware, and summarized design specifications of teaware, which serves as a reference for future research. Subsequently, a case study of award-winning teaware was conducted to understand the connection between tea culture and teaware design. After concluding the crucial factors regarding the design of teaware, this study then set a design target and established design specifications. Finally, teaware was designed according to such specifications. This study incorporated cultures of tea brewing and tea drinking into daily life to gain recognition from young people; through this approach, tea culture can be promoted. The findings were as follows: (a) Cultural symbols have already been widely used in teaware design. However, an overemphasis on innovation results in the superficiality and lack of cultural connections in contemporary teaware. (b) People living in different regions have distinct tea preferences and tea brewing methods vary with types of tea; as a result different teaware designs are required. Tea culture is still traditional and relatively old-fashioned in China, whereas it has diversified in Taiwan, where brewing methods are simplified. (c) Although teaware varies with the brewing method, the features of being “easy to brew, easy to hold, and easy to pour” should be the fundamental principle in teaware design. (d) To incorporate a specific culture into a product, the designer should understand and analyze the culture before utilizing its symbols and metaphors. Furthermore, natural landscapes, architecture, and cultural and religious motifs are three common themes in the design of teaware.

This study features a focus on the cross-strait marriages between aged veterans and mainland Chinese spouses after lifting the ban on mainland China family visit since 1987. By means of in-depth interviews with married aged veterans residing in Kaohsiung City’s Military Dependent’s Villages, the study aims to figure out the interactive modes among these couples. The findings contribute various factors to the aged veterans’ motives for marriages. First, these veterans need a lifelong caretaker. Second, they need a lifelong spouse for a complete home. And mainland Chinese spouses are perfect potentials since most of them are single mothers and have had home caring experiences. As a result, these cross-strait marriages involve interdependence relationships. Aged veterans fulfill their life goal of possessing a complete home, and their mainland Chinese spouses not only provide their husbands emotional support but also gain economic independence as well as self development. For this reason, most of the cross-strait marriages are with good stability and adaptation.

Desertification in the Chinese mainland expands with a speed of 2,460 square kilometers every year. Up to the year 2003, the total desertified and near-desertified land occupied 27% of the total national territory (9.6 million square kilometers). The sand in the sandstorms comes chiefly from these desertified lands, and the sandstorms are evoked with the severe conditions of the climate and abusive human behaviors (over-exploitation of farming land, forests, woods and underground water resources) and are getting worse. Many cities in Mainland China had to confront the hazards and have been deeply affected. The sandstorms even affect countries like Japan, Korea, United States and Canada, etc. through long-distance traveling. The impact the sandstorms have on Taiwan can be traced back to April 12, 1988. The threats they posed on residents’ health have been verified through the results of some research papers. The Environmental Protection Administration launched the project of “China Dust Storm Intensive Filed Study,” a project that better integrates the power of experts and scholars in the fields of weather prediction, public health, and environmental protection, as well as the manpower and detecting devices in the local Environmental Protection Bureaus. Many preventive and managing strategies have been brought up by Mainland China in the hope of slowing down and improve the desertification of the land, especially after the reform-and-open development in 1978. One after another, many substantial strategies were being raised. By the forceful interference of the government, specific laws and regulations on the use and re-furtilization of the arable land, grassland and desertificated land have been made. Preventive and managing strategies from both sides of the Taiwan Strait are collected in this thesis. We compare and analyze the similarities and differences between the strategies taken on sandstorms across the Strait from the perspective of social management theories, and to offer my personal opinions.

Taiwan and China have intensive interacted economically, politically, and culturally recently. After the third rotation in Taiwan, both KMT and DPP have to face the issues of cross-strait policies and how to interact with China. Nonetheless, there is still no consensus on national identity instead of there are great gaps and even oppositional ideas in Taiwan. The main controversy is on the positioning of Taiwan and China. Basically the poll by Election Study Center, National Chengchi University showed that the Taiwanese identity trumped the Chinese identity overwhelmingly in Taiwan. What is the reason for such big data demonstration in this intensively interacting time across the strait? The study attempts to discuss the impacts of Taiwan policies of Chinese government on the alternations of Chinese identity of people in Taiwan and to examine the predicament of both sides in expected to serve as the references for future policymakers. The questions rose in this study are: 1. How people in Taiwan have low Chinese identity? 2. What are the differences between the political developments of Taiwan and China? 3. How would the political differences influence on the alternation of Chinese identity in Taiwan. Conclusions and suggestions for future studies will be proposed.

Under the wave of globalization, Chinese teaching has also started to pay heed to the use of Chinese in each region. In order to conform to the current trend of social and cultural language use in various Chinese-speaking regions, the teaching of new words in different regions has received increasing attention. The new words are time-sensitive and responding to the times, thus The report “Language Situation of mainland China” and the newspaper “Apple Daily” of Taiwan region from 2012 to 2017 are taken as the source to analyze new words derived from quasi-affixes, make cross-strait comparisons, and propose teaching suggestions. According to the research results, from the perspective of language use, the number of syllables of new words develops from three towards four syllables, and the word formation in compound words is the most, with a growing trend; from the perspective of social culture, the new words have regional characteristics: 1. New words have no corresponding words in the two regions. 2. Different words have similar meanings. 3. One same word has different meanings. From the perspective of language use, the linguistic phenomenon of quasi-affixes presented in two regions are roughly the same. The following three points can be summarized: 1. The combination of two-syllable roots and quasi-affixes is still the most active form. 2. The quasi-affixes are combined with partial formal root the most. 3. The quasi-affixes mutually influence the roots to determine the emotional color of new word. From the perspective of social culture, the following two points can be found: 1. Commonality and difference of Chinese. 2. The regional differences in Chinese, which are reflected in translation orientation, idioms, and naming orientation. In addition, the research results show that the usage of the words in mainland China by Taiwan indicates an increasing trend.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of the integration of “Taiwanese consciousness” and “Chinese consciousness” on cross-strait relations. The objectives of this study are: 1. To explore the relevant theories of nationalistic consciousness and nationalism; 2. To investigate “Taiwanese consciousness” and “Chinese consciousness” in terms of their formation, development, conflict, transformation and integration; 3. To induce the statements/explication and the influence of “Taiwanese consciousness” and “Chinese consciousness” on decision-making in cross-strait policy; 4. To probe the development of a cross-strait citizens’ society and the values and the beliefs that form modern citizen consciousness; 5. To propose a framework of cross-strait integration into a Chinese Commonwealth, by taking example by the European Union, in order to create a peaceful and symbiotic relationship across the strait. Accordingly, based on integrated common values, citizens’ nationalistic consciousness can be further integrated. And also, on a basis of identification with Chinese culture, the strengthening of cross-strait exchanges and cooperation becomes a consensus across the strait, and hopefully both sides can make a “non-zero sum” future to promote real interests and rights of people across the strait and to construct a win-win cross-strait relationship. The scope of this study extends from the year 1949, in which division and separated governance across the strait began after the Nationalist-Communist Civil War, to nowadays. It can be divided into four phases: 1. 1949-1978: a period of military opposition and conflict; 2. 1978-1987: a period of mutual confrontation without contact; 3. 1987-1999: a period of alleviation with exchanges; 4. 1999-nowadays: a period of ideological antagonism. This investigation mainly focuses on the formation of Taiwanese consciousness and Chinese consciousness, the current situation of their development, their conflict and the direction of their integration, and an analysis of the influence of nationalistic consciousness on cross-strait relations as well. Therefore, Taiwan and Mainland China compose the main subject. This thesis consists of six chapters: chapter one is to narrate the motive and the purpose of this study, the research approach and methodology, the scope and the limits of the study, the research framework and the arrangement of chapters and sections; chapter two is to analyze the theories of ethnics, nationalistic consciousness and nationalism, and to explore the definition of “Taiwanese consciousness” and “Chinese consciousness”, and their features, conflict and integration as well; chapter three is to expound the insistence and the alteration of “Chinese Consciousness” in China’s Taiwan policy, and to elucidate the standpoint and the vision of “Taiwanese consciousness” in Taiwan’s China policy, in order to promote the integration of cross-strait relations and citizens’ nationalistic consciousness; chapter four is to introduce the third domain between a country and a society, and to probe the formation and the development of cross-strait citizens’ society, and further the construction of citizens’ nationalistic consciousness to lead to cross-strait integration; chapter five is to define Chinese citizens as a common identity of cross-strait political communities, and to draw out Chinese Commonwealth as a virtual image of cross-strait political integration, and to emphasize the cooperation and integration of cross-strait public domain affairs, and to offer a vision of cross-strait peace development; chapter six is to conclude with a summary of findings in this study, and to suggest. In this study, the findings subsequent to exploration and analysis are provided as follows: 1.Both sides across the strait should seek a dynamic equilibrium between “cultural identification” and “political identification”; 2.“Taiwanese consciousness” and “Chinese consciousness” should move toward dynamically balanced integration. 3.Both the sides should discard their respective narrow egocentrism toward great Chinese culture or native Taiwanese culture; 4.Construct a modern cross-strait citizens’ society with the statements and the upbringing of citizens’ nationalistic consciousness; 5.The willingness of Taiwan’s people about cross-strait future development should be first respected; 6.The regional interaction and integration between Taiwan and China is a real subject of importance; 7.A framework to promote the symbiosis and peace across the strait is: (1) “One Chinese” as a population identity which surpasses countries; (2) “Peace without arms” as a principle of cross-strait interaction; (3) Cooperation in “public domain” as a basis of cross-strait peace development; (4) “Basic agreement” as a schedule of promotion for cross-strait integration; (5) “Chinese Commonwealth” as a model of cross-strait integration.

Since 1949, PRC ( the People’s Republic of China) air force has evaluated its position from "support the army operations" to "many types of joint military operations," and its strategy has changed from the "homeland defense" to "both offensive and defensive." It has progressed from the "reliance on imports of the Soviet Union " to " self-study aerospace weapon and the new generation aircraft " on weapons. Above all, you can see the PRC air force is not only present in this air race but also is active to catch up with others. Retrospect to the past, the PRC has never given up the declaration of force against Taiwan, and its military action to us is only separated by a strait. Therefore, it has always been the greatest threat to Taiwan''s security. Before the PRC opened up the reform, Taiwan''s security was ensured because of the maintenance of air superiority over the situation. Today, however, the economic rise of the PRC has driven the development of national defense force. Their martial strength is quite different now. Particularly in the twenty-first century, the PRC gradually built a new generation of air force. Many military experts believe that the crisis of military balance over the Taiwan Strait has been produced and have raised a warning. Obviously, Taiwan''s air superiority over the situation has indeed faced a severe test and Taiwan''s security is also facing unprecedented challenges. Based on this, the author analyzes the changes in the strategic thinking of PRC air force, the current weapon situation, and the impact of international and regional situation, etc. from viewpoint of " the PRC air force modernization." Furthermore, the author explores the threat of the PRC air force to the Taiwan Strait security and thinks of whether there are deficient defenses against the Taiwan Strait crisis in Taiwan in the future. If possible, before the outbreak of conflict in the Taiwan Strait, Taiwan should be active in readiness for it. This study suggests that the PRC air force strategy has been a strategic military service towards the development of offensive defense. Their weapon-making capability has been greatly enhanced and they also grasp excellent martial force in outer space to support the use of air force. In addition, their capabilities in joint operations and long-range force projection have greatly promoted through the diversity of new battlefield and validation exercise. Indeed, the situation in the Taiwan Strait has been an imbalance. Under the condition of that the PRC air force fighter planes are gradually superior to Taiwan in quality and quantity, we should think about how to learn their advantage for our own use, strengthen our air force and anti-system capabilities, speed up the procurement of a new generation of fighters, emphasize the importance of enhancing weapon-making capability, promote the asymmetric warfare, maintain the US-Japan friendly relations, and actively join the regional alliance in order to effectively carry out homeland defense strategy and ensure national security.

This study mainly focused on the impact of Cross-Strait Economic and Trade Polices on Taiwanese & Chinese shipping firms performance. To answer it, we observe Cross-Strait Economic and Trade Polices and government share of Cross-Strait firms in 2005-2013. And we can realize which Cross-Strait Economic is important and the alteration of government share. Furthermore, we use Panel Data(Random Effect) to analyze which Cross-Strait Economic and Trade Polices have influence on ROA. According to empirical results, we find that Cross-Strait Economic and Trade Polices, the government share of firms impact the shipping firm''s ROA.

Direct links between Taiwan and China have been re-established since the end of 2008. At present, regular direct flights between airports in Taiwan and China are in operation. This reality is the culmination of negotiations between China and Taiwan. A
number of obstacles in ideology and politics existed throughout the negotiations. Particularly salient to these obstacles were the discourse of the one-China principle, as well as the political strategies and ideologies of the Kuomintang and Democratic Progressive Party in Taiwan. In addition, the influence of the media with regard to the resolution of ideological and political conflict was an important factor. Different news media outlets in Taiwan and China developed their own narratives of the development of cross-strait relations and
negotiation of the Three Links. An analysis of news media perspectives offers insight into the complex nature of political communication in Taiwan and China.

In the recent years, a large number of antibiotics were misapplied in Taiwan that caused very high ratios of the drug-resistant pathogens in hospitals. Thus, there is an urgent need for new effective anti-microorganism agents to replace those currently in use. In the present study, we screened 58 Chinese herbal medicines that were reported to have antibacterial activities, anti-inflammatory or analgesia in pharmaceutical efficacy to investigate the antibacterial activities of alcoholic extracts against the nosocomial drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Taiwan.The results of bioassay indicated that 23 out of the 58 Chinese herbs showed obvious antimicrobial activity against the test isolates. Among of the 23 herbs, 16 plant extracts that showed broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity against the test organism were selected to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). The MIC results from Guizhi, Mume Frutus and Cortex Moutan revealed better antibacterial activity ranged between 1 to 10 mg/mL, Raidx Et Rhizoma Rhei, Bulbus Fritillariae Thunbergii, Radix Sophorae Tonkinensis, and Radix Salviae Miltiorrhizae extracts showed MIC of 15 to 30 mg/mL, whereas for Cyperi Rhizoma, Cremastra appendiculata, Radix Clemafidis Chinesis, Frutus Forsythiae, Cortex Phellodendri, Radix Aucklandiae, Omphala, and Rhizoma Acori Graminei it ranged higher than 30 mg/mL. The crude alcohol extracts were then partition extraction by different solvents based on their polarity. Each fraction was also tested for its antibacterial activity. The MIC value for each active fraction showed significant lower than the crude extract. The results from time-kill studies showed that the test strains were killed within 8 hours when the isolates were exposed to two times of MIC concentration. In the resistance test, exposure of P. aeruginosa to a sub-MIC level of the extract for ten consecutive subcultures did not induce resistance to the active compound. Moreover, combination of the hexane fraction of Guizhi with gentamycin or streptomycin showed a synergism effect by the disc diffusion method. Each of the active partition fractions was also separated and purified by thin layer chromatography (TLC). The active compound on TLC plate was examined by TLC-bioautography and identified by UV/VIS. In this study, we used a bioassay-directed scheme to isolate and partially identify the active antibacterial compounds from Chinese herbal medicines. The present works not only provides extraction reference to active compound from herbs, but also indicates the active substances from Chinese herbs have the potential to be developed into the native antibiotics.

China''s film and television, broadcasting, publishing, and other forms of media are all under the control of the government. The exclusion of general public outside the media field is to allow the government to achieve guidance over the people and unity of public opinion for political purposes. China has always put in highest importance the strategic goal of solving the Taiwan problem and achieving national reunification. Through internal propaganda systems, China has constructed a “Taiwan impression” for their cross-strait policy, and facilitated to make the people accept this impression and further support the Government’s decision making. This thesis will focus its research on CCTV’s only Taiwan-related commentary program “Cross-Strait”, and analyze whether the topics, issues, and discussions have showed a different aspect in the two consecutive Taiwanese government administrations. Research found that the Chinese government possesses a very different attitude to the Chen Shui-Bian administration and the Ma Ying-Jeou administration, and this difference has made impact on the contents of the television program. During Chen Shui-Bian administration, the issues emphasized more on unification and independence, international participation, government actions, national defense, crime and economic status, and focused on negative issues and content. During Ma Ying-Jeou administration, the issues emphasized on the previous administration’s corruption scandals, cross-strait successes, and focused on positive issues and content. In addition, the impression of Taiwan created by the program has changed from negative to positive from the Chen Shui-Bian administration to the Ma Ying-Jeou administration. This proves that the program content is closely correlated to China’s strategy on Taiwan, and is one of the most important channels of propaganda for spreading cross-strait policy.

Abstract After moved to Taiwan, our government started to recruit overseas Chinese students to study at our country in 1952 .to accept the education of Chinese culture. Since the past 60 years, 190,000 young people came back Taiwan to study. For the recent 10 years, because of economic rise, the State Council of mainland China has promoted the overseas Chinese affairs by the scale and fund larger than ours. Their flexible use in strategy and statics swallowed and eroded our achievement abroad. Under Malaysian government’s deliberate repression, overseas Chinese education in Malaysia was run very difficultly. Experienced with dark period and crisis, by dismal management of United Chinese School Committee’s Association(UCSCAM)and Teachers’ Association (UCSTAM) of Malaysia, the situation has been turned around for the recent years. For the past 60 years, our government has kept on assisting Malaysia Chinese Education to cultivate the talents. Since Malaysia and mainland China signed to be the strategic partners in December, 2004,our Overseas Chinese affairs office asked all offices to take advantage of resources of Fellow Townsmen Association, Chamber of Commerce and Industry Association, Clan Association to help Chinese community activities in Malaysia. Universities and high schools applied the educational resources to strongly exchange with independent high schools in Malaysia. Even the “Quality Education”, “Appreciation Education” and recent “Successful Education” promoted by United Chinese School Committee’s Association(UCSCAM)and Teachers’ Association(UCSTAM)of Malaysia were derived from the educational reform model in mainland China. It’s influenced by the education of mainland China. Furthermore, Malaysia has been the largest trade partners for continuous 5 years from 2008. For the recent 2 years, Malaysia has trade surplusmore than US dollars 20 billion to China that makes the huge common interests for both countries. Malaysian Prime Minister NajibRazak and Xi Jinping, the General Secretary of Chinasigned “Comprehensive Strategic Partnership” and “Malaysia-Chinacooperationplanfor five years” in October 2013. In May, 2014, they celebrated the 40th anniversary of establishing diplomatic relations in Peijin. Dr. Ye Xin-tian, the chairman of UCSCAM and Dr. Wang Chao-qun, the chairman of UCSTAM were accompanied in the celebration group. This is really worth exploring.

With the advancement of technology and the increasing popularity of smart mobile devices, mobile payments are beginning to change peoples daily lives. Many scholars in the past have used the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to explore action payments, but few scholars have joined cultural factors to conduct research. Therefore, this study compares the payment status of the two regions in Chinese mainland and Taiwan, and hopes to have more understanding and discovery of the factors of Chinese peoples intention to use mobile payments.This study uses the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as the main architecture to explain the intent. The main variables include computer self-efficacy, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, subjective norm and perceived risk. Finally, the two cultural values of Hofstede are added. Dimensions (power distance, individualism, uncertainty avoidance, masculinity, long-term orientation) Whether there is interference effect in it, and the Chinese on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is the object to understand the influence of cross-strait culture.

The e-commerce industry in China is currently growing in its full swing. As a result, enormous business opportunities from cross-border shopping through Taiwan Strait are gradually forming. Having said that, only 20% of the e-commerce platforms in Taiwan are engaged in cross-border sales and nearly 40% of the platforms are still under evaluation phase. There are several reasons why these platforms are reluctant to start their cross strait e-commerce, some of which are of course the custom barriers and related political issues. However, the key issue here is the lack of understanding of the cross-border consumers’ needs and the difficulties of after-sale service caused by geographical distance. In this paper, we first analyze the status quo of online shopping business development both in China and Taiwan, and then go deeper into the more specific issue of consumer demands and behavior. The study finds that in term of transaction volume, the scale of online shopping market in China is 15.8 times larger than Taiwan’s. Meanwhile, based on the volume of commodities transported by the package delivery companies across the Straits, Taiwan’s demand for Chinese commodities is 1.7 times higher than Mainland China’s demand for Taiwanese products. Therefore, online shopping platforms in Taiwan should first understand the core nature of why these cross-strait shopping web sites are so popular among two sides, and further maximize their own advantages in the business. Only if they’ve created their own unique characteristic, they could compete with shopping platforms in China. Based on seven individual criterions, comprising of practicability, ease to use, entertaining, service quality, customer trust, satisfaction and loyalty, a survey is designed to investigate and analyze the behavior of cross-border consumers in both China and Taiwan. The result shows that the most prominent and attractive factors for cross-strait consumers to go online are the diversity of commodity choices, competitive price, and the uniqueness of various commodities. Furthermore, consumer trust is the most fundamental factor for a successful cross-border online shopping website. Only with this factor satisfied first, a website can then attract customers by improving web site service quality, and earned the customer’s satisfaction and eventually the loyalty of customers. In addition, when studying the shopping behavior differences between the two sides of the Taiwan Straits, the research shows that consumers in Taiwan are inclined to emphasize more on whether the commodity itself and following services provided by the shopping website meet their actual needs, while shoppers from mainland China focus more on timely and correct commodity information provided by the website. The result can be utilized by online shopping platforms to design marketing strategies over different preferences of consumers on both side of the Strait.

In recent years, the term “Shanzhai” has become more and more intensified, forming a phenomenon that was called kept “Shanzhai Culture”. Taiwan has recently promoted the relevant industries and keeps them going positively, but how to successfully improve the design of the original value without being entitled Shanzhai is now becoming a critical issue. Trademark is the spirit for enterprises to represent their company’s spirit or brand value. However, Shanzhai trademark goes in an entirely different way. In this study, we researched Shanzhai trademark between 2008-2011,compared with the Top 100 Global Brands announced by Interbrand 2011. After screening, there were 30 samples that were retained. We tried to make an analysis from some point of view, such as design principles, visual performance, and significations. The study discussed the three parts as follows: (1) Summary of Shanzhai culture and the classification of trademarks’ design type (2) Shanzhai trademark’s content analysis, including their composition and meaning (3) the signification of Shanzhai trademarks. Using Saussure’s theory to assay the symbolic function, the study explored or those the theory of pedigree axis and adjacent axis to recognize the Shanzhai trademarks’ consist of and the way it goes. The study found that most of Shanzhai trademarks were made up with letters, showing that this kind of elements is easy to be imitated. Viewing from the enterprise category, the service industries has been mostly to mimic. They account for 60 percent of all Shanzhai trademarks. From the point of Shanzhai trademarks’ image, we found that "geometric form" takes most of them. The research was under the unique construction that the highlights referred to designers who need it.

Returned overseas Chinese also brings new management, technology, market, and concept knowledge for Mainland China from western countries. These returned overseas Chinese not only to be high level manager in China’s company but also in Taiwan’s, and this change becomes a huge impact to Taiwanese due to “ Taiwanese always lead Chinese” in the past.

It not only takes linguistic proficiency, encyclopedic knowledge and the mastery of interpretation techniques to be a professional interpreter, but also a strong sense of duty. Given the fact that Taiwan and mainland China share the same ethnic and linguistic root, it is worth exploring the similarities and dissimilarities between student interpreters across the Strait in terms of their learning experience of Chinese-to-English consecutive interpretation. This study aims to determine the difficulties faced by cross-strait student interpreters and the strategies they apply to address corresponding problems, as well as the commonalities and differences of the previous two issues. A total of forty-seven interpreting majors, seven from Taiwan and forty from the mainland, with Chinese as their A language and English as a B language and with six months of formal training of consecutive interpreting joined the proposed experiment. The instruments are: 1) one excerpt from each of the speeches of President Ying-Jiu Ma (馬英九) and President Jin-Tao Hu (胡錦濤); 2) a questionnaire to be completed by the subjects after the interpretation. After a brief introduction to the experiment and testing of the equipment, the subjects watched/listened to an excerpt from the source text, interpreted it, and completed the questionnaire, either with the help of the transcript provided by the researcher or by listening to their own rendition. A statistical analysis was conducted by frequency and an independent samples t-test of SPSS to ascertain whether there was a significant difference in the performance of the two groups of subjects, which was analyzed in three aspects: language, knowledge and interpreting skill. The results of the quantitative analysis indicated that Taiwanese student interpreters faced significantly greater difficulty in Chinese-to-English consecutive interpreting, with language the most and skill the least. They mainly applied omission, inferencing and omission again to address problems related to language, knowledge and skill, respectively. The level of difficulty for those from the mainland was, from high to low, skill, language, and knowledge. They were most likely to apply omission to counter difficulty in all these three areas. The findings of the research may be helpful and useful to student interpreters and training providers due to its contribution to their knowledge of consecutive interpretation and their understanding of the overall learning experience of student interpreters across the Strait. However, future research will be necessary to ensure a higher quality of interpretation on both sides and ultimately better serve the audience.

After the rise of political and economical power from Mainland China, the soft power coming from developing Chinese studies has become a new strength of global politics. Starting from November 2004 when Mainland China set up the first Confucius Institute in Seoul, South Korea, as of August 2011 there has been 826 Confucius Institutes and Confucius classrooms set up throughout the world in 104 countries. Confucius Institute is seen as the symbol of China’s “Going global” strategy. In January 2008 when Mr. Ma Ying-jeou was running in the presidential election, he promoted the idea to have culture as the core of his foreign policy. In order to compete against Confucius Institute, the Republic of China government has established the Taiwan Academy in three cities, L.A., Houston and New York, in the U.S.A in October 2011 to promote Taiwan’s unique Chinese culture. This is on one hand to showcase Taiwan’s achievements of democracy, freedom and economic development, and on the other hand re-gain the main distributor role of Chinese culture. This dissertation sets out from Joseph Nye’s soft power theory and adapts this idea to explore how Taiwan and mainland China implement its soft power by promoting Chinese studies overseas. Ranging from 1978 to 2011, the dissertation focuses on analyzing the cross-strait competition between mainland China since the implementation of reform and open policy, and Taiwan after the break-off of diplomatic relationship with the US, her struggle and break-through despite of all the diplomacy difficulties, and her efforts to establish a new image around the globe. Through this comprehensive and systematic study, we will have a better understanding of the global effects generated by the international Chinese studies promotion across Taiwan Strait.

Advances in science and technology have made the world the global village and translators have become a medium of international and intercultural communication. Translation, a translational action, which always has at least one skopos that a translator aims to achieve by translation strategies, leads to a translatum finally. News is a way for people to acquire information that they want or need to know. The general skopos of new translation is to deliver foreign information that target audiences want or need to know in a way fitting in with the conventions of target cultures. Translated news texts, as a result, are often edited, rewritten, or reorganized by news translators based on target cultures. Actually, a new term trans-editing has been proposed to describe an adaptation to the needs and conventions of target cultures through the both skills of translating and editing. The NBA, a league reflecting American sports culture, has had high popularity in both Taiwan and China since its execution of global expansion strategies and development of a closer relationship with the media. However, previous studies have shown cultural motivation for people to pay attention to the NBA was different in America, Taiwan, and China. For example, Chinese people were seriously influenced by national identity and Taiwanese people preferred the entertainment of the NBA. Similarly, every nation has its own sports culture, which might have a conflict with American sports culture. American sports culture embodying in the NBA, thus, might not be completely transferred to China and Taiwan by trans-edited NBA news. The above means differences, with the exceptions of Chinese characters and word usage, between translated NBA news texts in Traditional and Simplified Chinese could be observed. Additionally, with globalization, the demand for English-Simplified or Traditional Chinese has grown; with the development of cross-strait relation, the demand for Simplified-Traditional Chinese translation has appeared. Hence this thesis, first, compared similarities and differences between trans-edited NBA news in Traditional and Simplified Chinese through corpus analysis, including word frequency lists generated by AntConc and the first theme selections. Then Vermeer’s skopos theory and different cultural motivation, including teamwork, community pride, national identity, team-orientation, individual performance, winning-orientation, and entertainment, were used to hypothesize the cause and effect of the similarities and differences. The log-likelihood tests of the hypotheses were conducted to verify the arguments. Finally, text analysis was applied to study text structures, including the ordering of facts and the choice of reporting information, and the different practices of name translation, both of which led to different writing styles. The research found national identity was an important cultural motivation for Taiwanese trans-editors in the process of translating and editing and choosing the first theme. The values of team and winning, however, were the most important values for the Chinese trans-editors. Besides, the Chinese trans-editors applied the adding and theme-changing strategies to provide more game details for their readers and to emphasize the values of team and winning. The Taiwanese ones, on the other hand, applied the reducing and theme-changing strategies to emphasize the highlights of games and popular players’ performances. The Chinese trans-editors would use players’ nicknames in China without providing their translated full names and use players’ translated names without providing their original names. The both strategies successfully shortened the distance between the NBA and its Chinese fans, but led to an increase in the level of informality and subjectivity of their texts. This thesis demonstrates that sports news translation/trans-editing as a medium of intercultural communication is actually cultural negotiation between foreign and local cultures, leading to cultural hybridization. The research results provided translation resources for NBA news translators/trans-editors in China and Taiwan for reference in the future.

Abstract Among various trends in Chinese Party-Army relations, professionalization of the People Liberation Army’s officer corps has received particular attention from scholars in the last decades. Most of the related scholarly research has been focused mainly on the institutional and organizational trends, as well as counter-trends, of the PLA professionalization reforms. Pioneering works like those of Ellis Joffe and Harlan Jencks, as well as more recent endeavors of younger scholars like James Mulvenon, succeeded in giving shape to a general consensus in this field. That is, the basic tension between professionalism and politicization in the Chinese officer corps is one of the main key trends and fundamental aspects of civil-military relations in mainland China, even more than it was for other communist countries. This paper starts from this basic assumption, and tries to explore the more political and sociological effects of the structural professionalization of the PLA’s officer corps. The first aim of this paper is to review carefully the meaning of military professionalism and the process of professionalization (as well as counter-trends associated with it ) that took place in the PLA at the macroscopic or organizational level during different political and historical phases in China. Attention will be given to those characteristic features and unique events in the Chinese political scene that at different times delayed or facilitated this process. The second aim is to probe the effects or these reforms on the sociological aspect of military professionalization, mainly professional corporatness and political role of the senior officer corps, in terms of military political power. The more empirical part of this research involves the case study of the 1995-1996 cross-strait crisis, from the perspective of the Chinese military establishment and its involvement in the decision-making process. The main finding of this paper is that professionalization at the macro-level has had profound consequences at the micro-level, enhancing PLA’s espirit de corps as a professional group, and causing a shift in the Chinese officer corps’ political role. Such shift is in part in line with the Huntingtonian concept of “Political Neutrality” at the domestic level, but entails also increased corporate pressure capabilities at other levels as described by sociologists of civil -military relations such as Benght Abrahamsson and Morris Janowitz.

In recent years, there have been more and more cases of suicide and people hurting others indiscriminately, which has brought "life education" to the public's attention. The investigations of and appeals for "life education" have never stopped, but most of the studies on "life education" either emphasize the definition of death in textbooks or center on drawing books, youth-related novels, and natural science . Nevertheless, there are very few studies in which researchers perform content analysis of "life education" topics in textbooks in the langunge field. Since language courses are characterized by human spirit and life consciousness, they are thus a very important teaching resource; therefore, language teaching can take the responsibility of "life education". In this study, I am going to perform a content analysis of "life education" topics in textbooks across the Taiwan Strait. This study aims to analyze and investigate "life education" topics in language textbooks at elementary school level across the Taiwan Strait. First, through literature review, the meaning and content of "life education" are summarized and integrated. Next, content analysis method is utilized to explain and analyze the content of "life education" topics in text books across the Taiwan Strait. Through the analysis and comparison of language textbooks across the Taiwan Strait, we try to understand of whether language teaching materials across the Taiwan Strait provide sufficient content and appropriate perspectives to construct a complete concept of "life education". The conclusions of this study are as follows: 1. "Life education" topics in elementary school language textbooks across the Taiwan Strait cover five categeries: "the growth of life", "ecological conservation", "the value of life", "surmounting the defects of life", and "death". "Ecological conservation" topics constitute the highest proportion in Taiwan while "death" topics account for the lowest proportion. In Mainland China, more emphasis is laid on "death" topics while there exists lack of "the growth of life" content. 2. Taiwan and Mainland China differ in their material sources. The difference are as follows: (1) With regard to "the growth of life" topics, Taiwan refers to the life growth of plants, animals, and humans. By contrast, there are no related teaching materials in Mainland China. (2) With respect to "ecological conservation" topics, Taiwan deals with plants, animals, and environmental and ecological conservation. Most of the topics focus on domestic ecological conservation instead of on foreign matters. Mainland China tapes more foreign animal, environmental, and ecological conservation but there are no articles on plant and ecological conservation. (3) As to "the value of life" topics, most of Taiwan's articles focus on "saving life through the practice of medicine", while the others are about the dedications and contributions from, for example, nuns, inventors, and social workers. In Mainland China, the topics are mostly around the poor, sympathy of children, and the contributions of the scientists. (4) As for "surmounting the defects of life" topics, both textbooks across the Taiwan Strait incorporate the painstaking process and history of the disabled from home and abroad; in Taiwan, articles on the life struggling process people with impaired vicion hearing(Helen Keller) are added. (5) Withvrelation to "death" topics, Taiwan's textbooks feature animals and humans characters, organ donations, and children with cancer in the literature are the main topics. The focus is on reflecting on the meaning of life and the mental state in facing death. In Mainland China, most of the topics are on people who sacrifice themselves for the country, for others, or for ideal. In these articles, what is displayed is the value of death rather than individual mental changes in facing death. 3. In Mainland China, the life education curriculum is mostly distributed in medium and high grade classes; but in Taiwan, in addition to medium and high grade classes, there are topics of "the growth of life" and "ecological conservation" for the lower grade classes. 4. The proportion of each item in textbooks across the Taiwan Strait is random and chaotic. The proportion of each grade can be re-adjusted. We thus propose the following suggestions: 1. In the editing of teaching material, each volume should focus on a single main topic, and the proportion in each volume should be well balanced. 2. In the teaching content aspect, (1) The main topic of the life education should be clearly displayed. (2) The topics should be rich and include multiple elements. (3) The materials should be taken a global basis. (4) The display of the topic should be appropriate for the age of the students. 3. In the teacher's aspect, (1) The teaching of life education should not be limited to general activity field. (2) Teachers should equip themselves with more professional knowledge, read, visit and study more. (3) Life education teaching should be implemented in multiple ways.

Language is a tool to communicate and express feelings. Recently it is said that language ability of local people has become low in China, Taiwan and Japan…, etc.; therefore it is an urgent thing to study language educational goals and language materials. In the thesis I want to make a through and general comparison and analysis of the organization and content in the textbooks by examining high school textbooks across the strait in order to discuss the strength and drawbacks of textbook organization, the concepts as well as connotation underlying the selected texts and the match degree of the practicability and theory. More specifically, I will find related topics about political and ethnic cultural ideology, then study and compare them by means of listing the instructional goal and course standard, analyzing the way to select texts and organize the textbook across the strait. I try to find the same and different way how educational institution across the strait select the texts and compare the difference of textbooks in order to provide some suggestions about high school language education, offer reference for other researchers and make Chinese textbook design more meaningful. In other words, I want to contribute myself to eliminate problems of traditional textbook and offer my service for textbook organization and material choice by introducing and comparing the similarities and differences of the structure and organization in two editions. Materials in this thesis not only include arrangement of texts according to political features, but also include the connotation of culture, so that we can contrast, compare and analyze the orientation of text choice. The materials contain time (dynasty), writer, genre and content features. If anyone wants to make further research, it can save much time to make use of the materials provided in this thesis.
