[[alternative]]Development Of A Three-Dimensional Sponge Dressing Containing Fucoidan/Collagen/Chondroitin Sulfate/Chitosan Composite Material For Skin Injury Repair
[[abstract]]銅藻(Sargassum Horneri)是一種溫帶性海洋大型褐藻,廣泛分布於中國、韓國和日本沿海等地區。由於台灣處於副熱帶氣候地區,因此並沒有在地的野生銅藻。但是,漂流性銅藻在冬末春初大陸沿岸冷流來到時,會順著冷水團渡過台灣海峽,來到台灣的中、北部海岸及澎湖海岸,成為台灣海洋的廢棄物,甚至造成漁船故障、近海的魚貝類受困死亡,海岸惡臭的環境問題。雖然大量漂流來的銅藻帶來了海洋問題,但銅藻所含有的褐藻醣膠具有多種生物活性,如抗菌、抗氧化、抗病毒、抗炎、抗腫瘤、抗凝血和免疫調節活性等功能。有鑑於褐藻醣膠具有調節與傷口修復相關的轉化生長因子β1的作用,並且能促進新生血管和纖維狀膠原基質的形成等幫助皮膚修復的潛力。因此,本研究結合過去在開發人工真皮的經驗,將台灣海岸銅藻所萃取的褐藻醣膠應用於全皮膚損傷修復之三維海綿敷料的開發。本研究目前已開發含褐藻醣膠的三維海綿敷料的製程及配比,及評估其物理性質及生物相容性。未來將進行組織學及皮膚組織修復能力結果評估。本研究將台灣海域銅藻萃取之褐藻醣膠應用於傷口敷料開發將有助於提升傷口醫療修復的發展,並且幫助提升銅藻的經濟價值,及解決銅藻成為海洋廢棄物的問題。[[abstract]]Sargassum Horneri is a temperate marine macroalgae widely distributed in coastal areas of China, Korea and Japan. Because Taiwan is in a subtropical climate area, there are no wild copper algae in the area. However, the drifting copper algae will cross the Taiwan Strait along the cold water mass when the cold current comes along the coast of the mainland in late winter and early spring, and come to the central and northern coasts of Taiwan and the coast of Penghu. Although a large number of drifting copper algae has brought marine problems, the fucoidan contained in copper algae has a variety of biological activities, such as antibacterial, antioxidant, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, antitumor, anticoagulant and immunomodulatory activities. In view of the potential of fucoidan to regulate transforming growth factor β1 related to wound repair, and to promote the formation of new blood vessels and fibrous collagen matrix, etc., to help skin repair. Therefore, in this study, combined with the experience in the development of artificial, fucoidan extracted from Taiwan's coastal copper algae was used to evaluate the development of a three-dimensional sponge dressing for the repair of total skin damage. In this study, the manufacturing process and proportion of the three-dimensional sponge dressing containing fucoidan have been developed, and its physical properties and biocompatibility have been evaluated. In the future, histological and skin tissue capacity repair results will be evaluated. In this study, the development of fucoidan and dressings extracted from copper algae along the coast of Taiwan will help to improve the development of medical repair, and help to increase the economic value of copper algae, and solve the problem of copper algae being discharged into the ocean

[[alternative]]Relationship between Knowledge and Types of Attitudes toward with Dementia in the General Population: A Mixed Method Research Study
[[abstract]]目的:失智症污名化是一個全球性的問題,它會成為阻礙失智症患者及其家屬身心社會安適的巨大障礙,與失智症相關的污名亦是人們對疾病的恐懼以及缺乏對失智症的認識和理解而導致。因此本研究目的在探討一般民眾對失智症的知識瞭解程度與態度之間的關係,並使用混合式研究方法進行調查。方法:研究分為三部分:第一部分將英文版失智症知識評估量表 (Dementia Knowledge Assessment Scale, DKAS) 進行中文翻譯,並收案133位參與者以進行信度與效度的檢測。第二部分於2018年在臺中市4個行政區,以參與衛生所健康服務的20歲以上民眾為對象,採取方便取樣方式進行線上結構性問卷填寫調查。失智症知識使用台灣版失智症知識評估量表 (T-DKAS) 進行測量,對失智症患者的態度則使用4種感覺分類來衡量:不自在、羞愧、迴避和恐懼。分析方法採用敘述統計、集群分析、線性迴歸、多元邏輯式迴歸分析等。此外,也利用一個開放式問題請受訪者用文字描述失智症的感受,並以文字探勘進行分析。共347人完成調查。第三部分則是從第二部分問卷參與者再進行半結構式訪談後進行質性結果的分析。共34人完成訪談。結果:第一部分結果顯示該量表整體問卷的Cronbach's α係數為0.781,再測信度為0.733,CVI (Content Validity Index) 值為0.92;因素分析檢驗構念效度將失智症知識分為八個面向 (常識、溝通、晚期症狀、互動、原因、治療、舒適照護、與診斷),解釋力60.3%。本研究翻譯為中文的失智症知識評估量表 (Taiwanese version of the Dementia Knowledge Assessment Scale, T-DKAS) 具有可接受的信度與效度。 第二部分研究結果顯示,民眾對失智症的知識得分屬於中等,線性迴歸分析結果顯示,在考慮其他變項的情況下,教育程度 (β=-1.942)、職業類別 (β=2.529)、現存慢性疾病或健康問題 (β=-1.360)、照顧失智者的經驗 (β=-2.596) 以及失智症家族史 (β=-1.719) 等因素與失智症知識得分呈現顯著相關。沒有現存慢性疾病或健康問題、沒有照顧失智者經驗以及不確定是否有失智症家族史的人,其失智症知識得分相對較低。其次,透過階層式集群分析,參與者的態度被分為四組:感到不自在 (22.2%)、感到羞愧 (2.6%)、持有不友善態度 (22.5%) 和非負向態度 (52.7%)。受訪者對失智症的態度涵蓋了羞愧、恐懼、迴避和不自在等四個變項,經過階層式集群分析後,有22.2%的受訪者在與罹患失智症的親友相處時會感到不自在,約有2.6%的受訪者因親友罹患失智症而感到羞愧,有22.5%的受訪者持有不友善的態度 (包括感到不自在、恐懼和迴避失智症患者),而持有非負面態度 (不感到羞愧、不感到恐懼、不迴避且能自在相處) 的受訪者則佔了一半 (52.7%)。文字探勘結果則顯示,在1041個對失智症感受的字詞中有55.3%屬於負面詞性,17.8%為正面詞性,23.1%為中性,4%無想法。文字雲顯示最頻繁的字詞多為描述失智症症狀、照顧想法、負面情緒等。 第三部分在針對民眾對失智症的知識和態度進行半結構式訪談時,結果顯示只有少數受訪者對失智症的病因或症狀有部分正確的了解。大多數受訪者從傳播媒體、相關課程以及與親友互動中獲得了片段不完整的資訊。結論:失智症知識與不自在或不友善的態度無直接關聯,接觸失智者的知識也不一定更豐富。這表明目前失智症知識的傳遞可能缺乏與面對失智者友善態度相關的內容,或者民眾缺乏獲得正確失智症認知與態度的教育管道,民眾從媒體傳播獲得對失智症訊息通常也較為片面。因此當進行不同的教育策略介入時,應該納入失智友善態度的內容,並鼓勵民眾與失智症患者進行更多互動,改變對失智症的觀點和態度,從而讓失智症患者能夠更安心、被尊重並以自主的方式生活。[[abstract]]Purpose: Dementia stigmatization is a global issue that poses significant barriers to the well-being of individuals with dementia and their families. The stigma associated with dementia is rooted in people's fear of the disease and a lack of understanding and awareness about dementia. This study aims to investigate the relationship between the general public's knowledge of dementia and their attitudes toward it, using a mixed-methods research approach. Methods: The study consists of three parts. In the first part, the English version of the Dementia Knowledge Assessment Scale (DKAS) was translated into Chinese and subjected to reliability and validity testing by 133 participants. In the second part, a structured online questionnaire was administered to adults aged above 20 who participated in health services at four administrative districts in Taichung City in 2018, using convenience sampling. Dementia knowledge was measured using the T-DKAS, while attitudes toward dementia patients were assessed using four categories: discomfort, shame, avoidance, and fear. An open-ended question was also used to capture participants' descriptions of their feelings toward dementia. Analysist methods included descriptive analysis, cluster analysis, linear regression, and multinomial logistic regression. Text mining was used to analyze the text answers of the open question. A total of 347 respondents completed the questionnaire. In the third part, semi-structured interviews were conducted to explore participants' knowledge and attitudes toward dementia. A total of 34 completed the interviews.Results: The first part results showed a Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.781 for the comprehensive questionnaire, the test-retest reliability of 0.733, and a Content Validity Index (CVI) of 0.92. Therefore, the translated Taiwanese version of the Dementia Knowledge Assessment Scale (T-DKAS) demonstrated good reliability and validity. The construct validity by factor analysis showed 8 domains of the dementia knowledge of the T-DKAS scale: common sense, communication, late symptoms, interaction, cause, treatment, comfort and care, and diagnosis. The explained variance was 60.3%. In general the T-DKAS showed an acceptable reliability and validity. The results the the second part showed that the general public had a moderate level of knowledge about dementia. Linear regression analysis revealed significant correlations between dementia knowledge scores and factors such as education level, occupation, having chronic diseases or health issues, experience caring for individuals with dementia, and a family history of dementia. Individuals without chronic diseases or health issues, without caregiving experience, and uncertain about their family history of dementia had relatively lower dementia knowledge scores. Next, through hierarchical cluster analysis, participants' attitudes were categorized into four groups: feeling uncomfortable (22.2%), feeling ashamed (2.6%), holding unfriendly attitudes (22.5%), and holding non-negative attitudes (52.7%). Participants with occupations related to healthcare and caregiving had higher dementia knowledge scores than unemployed individuals. These factors explained 29.4% of the variance in attitudes toward dementia. The attitudes towards dementia covered four variables: shame, fear, avoidance, and discomfort. Following hierarchical cluster analysis, participants were grouped into four clusters. Among these clusters, 22.2% of participants felt uncomfortable when interacting with family members or friends with dementia, approximately 2.6% felt ashamed due to their loved one's dementia, 22.5% held unfriendly attitudes (including discomfort, fear, and avoidance towards dementia patients), while 52.7% held non-negative attitudes (not feeling ashamed, not feeling afraid, not avoiding, and able to interact comfortably). The findings indicated that nearly half (47.3%) of participants still held negative views and unfriendly attitudes toward dementia patients. The text mining analyzed the characteristics of the feeling toward dementia. Among the 1041 words/phrases, 55.3% were negative, 17.8% were positive, 23.1% were neutrual and 4% had no idea. The most frequent words were about the symptoms, caregiving feeling, and negative emotions about dementia. In the third part, the qualitative data from the semi-strucutre qualitative interview showed that only a few participants had partial and somewhat accurate understanding of the causes and symptoms of dementia. Most participants gained fragmented and incomplted information from mass media, related courses, and interactions with social networks. Conclusion: Knowing about dementia does not necessarily correlate with feelings of discomfort or unfriendly attitudes. The knowledge about dementia among those who have had contact with individuals with dementia may not be more extensive. This indicates that the current transmission of dementia knowledge may lack content related to a friendly attitude toward individuals with dementia, or the general public lacks educational channels to obtain an accurate understanding and attitudes toward dementia. The information about dementia through media is usually fragmental for the public. Therefore, when implementing different educational strategies, it is important to incorporate content related to a dementia-friendly attitude and encourage interactions between the public and individuals with dementia to change perspectives and attitudes towards dementia and promote a sense of security, respect, and autonomy for individuals with dementia
[[alternative]]A Study on Taiwanese people's intention to continue playing Pok�mon GO after COVID-19
[[abstract]]本研究調查疫情期間台灣民眾參與Pokémon GO行動遊戲意願的前因和後果,並提出新理論模型。調查目的在研究疫情前廣受歡迎的Pokémon GO遊戲, 玩家是否可從遊戲互動性及啟發性感受到深刻的心流體驗及知覺有用,並影響疫情期間其對擴增實境的科技態度、遊戲參與及知覺信任,最後透過遊戲參與影響其對Pokémon GO的品牌價值與續玩意願。為此,我們邀請對Pokémon GO熟識的台灣民眾協助填答,並順利蒐集159位有效樣本。經結構方程模型統計分析與假說驗證結果顯示,互動性和啟發性是Pokémon GO玩家心流體驗的兩大關鍵前因。心流體驗可增強玩家對AR科技的態度、品牌信任與遊戲參與,進而透過遊戲參與提高品牌價值知覺和疫情期間的續用意願。最後,本文也針對理論與實務意涵進行討論與建議。[[abstract]]This study investigates the antecedents and consequences of Taiwanese people's intention of continuous usage in Pokémon GO during COVID and suggests a new conceptual model. The purpose of this paper is to examine whether users of Pokémon GO can have flow experience and perceived usefulness from interactivity and inspiration of Pokémon GO. Furthermore, we intent to know how player engagement is shaped via flow experience and perceived usefulness of Pokémon GO, which eventually leads to a positive brand value and intention of continuous usage during COVID. To the end, we invited Taiwanese people who are familiar with Pokémon GO to do survey questionnaire and successfully collected 159 valid samples. Findings showed that interactivity and inspiration are two major antecedents of consumers’ flow experience. The flow experience with Pokémon GO can generate favorable attitudes towards AR apps and more trust in AR apps, which trigger players’ engagement with Pokémon GO and then improve perceived value and intention of continuous usage during COVID. Finally, this paper discusses both the theoretical and managerial implications

This study focuses on the transformation of traders into a vertically integrated industry, and briefly describes the development of Taiwan's footwear industry, and what resource bases traders originally had, and through backward integration to merge and acquire Vietnamese factories to understand the problems encountered after the transformation and what core competencies are required to transform into a vertically integrated industry, so that customers can have more trust and reliance on traders who own their own factories. By transforming into a vertically integrated company, customers can have more trust and reliance on traders who own their own factories. However, due to the additional factories that need to be managed, especially women's shoes factories are more difficult to manage, because women's shoes have many styles and the workmanship is very complex and the speed of fashion changes quickly, requiring stable high quality and delivery time, the capital flow required to operate a factory is particularly large, so the team that needs to be managed is also larger and more professional.This study utilizes a case study approach and takes middle and senior executives of Company M as the research subjects. Through in-depth interviews, the study explores and compares the competencies required to transform from a trader to an integrated manufacturer (vertical integration) and the changes in costs associated with the transformation to an integrated manufacturer, and finally this study proposes two research propositions
