New developments of the sequential probability ratio test control chart
Full text linkThis thesis aims to enrich the literature on the SPRT control chart following two
major contributions made in the late 1990s and early 2010s. The SPRT chart has
been chosen as the central premise of this thesis due to its strong detection
performance as well as high sampling efficiency. Two major research gaps have been
identified. The first gap is the lack of documentation on the SPRT chart with
estimated process parameters and its statistical design. The second gap is the lack
of a well-motivated SPRT chart for joint monitoring of the mean and dispersion of
a process. To fill the literature gaps, we formulate the theoretical framework for
the SPRT chart with estimated process parameters, as well as develop a new SPRT
chart for joint monitoring of the mean and dispersion. Optimisation designs based
on various industrial objectives have been developed in this thesis. Real industrial
examples involving a variety of destructive and non-destructive tests are also
presented in this thesis to illustrate the implementation of the proposed SPRT
charts. The thesis should serve as a reference to researchers working in the field of
statistical quality control, as well as practitioners seeking to improve the
performance of their processes

[[alternative]]Anarchism in the Wei and Jin Periods
No full text[[abstract]]魏晉是「無君」思想的高峰。「無君」作為一個思想流派的指稱，其意義相當於「無
政府主義」。這一派的思想重視生命與生命的自由和自主，認為一切寓含權力結構的
政治型態都是罪惡的，故主張廢除國家，以及國家形成前的巫史、酋長等他種政權形
式。
「無君」思想傾向於道家的思考形態，但並非道家政治思想的主流；道家政治思想的
主流；道家政治思想的主流主張君主無為而治，虛君而不廢君；故「無君」思想只能
視為道家無為而治政治觀的一種「歧出」。「無君」思想在專制政體下向來被視為異
端邪說、洪水猛獸，故其留傳下來的原典材料殘缺不全，而且表達隱諱曲折。本文為
了探索有限材料所含蘊的可能意義，除了拓展原始材料外，多角度的呈現資料，進行
不同面向的思考，也是本文突破材料限制的方法。因此，本文雖以「魏晉」的「無君
」思想為研究的重心，但行文時卻上溯下行，企圖涵括整個傳統的「無君」思想；將
研究的縱向延伸，以了解「無君」思想的演化歷程，並彰顯魏晉「無君」思想在整個
傳統「無君」思想的重要地位。從「有君」與「無君」思想的對話中，豁醒「無君」
思想的流佈，及其對「有君」思想所造成的衝擊與影響。並且藉由魏晉「無君」思想
形式與內涵類型的比較，析分出魏晉「無君」思想的豐富面貌。最後，本文則以近代
西方的「無政府主義」作對照，將中國傳統的「無君」思想放在更大的視野下，檢視
它特殊的思考傾向。
在章節的安排上，除了第一章緒論第六章結論外，依時間的先後，討論「無君」思想
的流衍與轉化。第二章從「無君」理想社會的嚮往與「無君」實然社會的啟示，探求
「無君」思想的發端。第三、四章析論魏晉「無君」思想的類型與其困境；第三章試
圖客觀的陳述「無君」詞語及論證的確切意義，第四章則涉及理論內容的判斷，必須
援引其它的材料作為判斷的基礎。從第四意對「無君」思想困境的評述，即可掌「無
君」思想握在魏晉後逐漸式微的內在脈絡。第五章討論魏晉「無君」思想的影響，從
「無君」理論的承襲與轉化、「桃花源」系列文學的湧現、宗教團體革命的「無君」
口號，以呈現魏晉「無君」思想對後世的影響，以及「無君」思想由一種特徵、意義
與發展趨向。本章由傳統「無君」思想之要旨與特殊的思考傾向，探索「無君」思想
對現代會的啟發性意義。
本文所論之道家形態的「無君」思想，帶有濃厚的復古、反人文色彩，反對革命，並
以隱遯山林為其現實可行的方案。
二十四小時飲食回憶法評估國小高年級學童飲食攝取效度之研究
No full text[[abstract]]本研究旨了解以二十四小時飲食回憶法評估我國國小高年級學童飲食攝取的有效性。
因此從二十四小時飲良回憶法中得到學童回憶什餐的攝取資料，以秤重及觀察記錄學
童在什餐中實際攝取的食物種類及量為參照值，將回憶值與參照加以比較。在研究中
，訪談人員採用自擬之標圣準化的訪談過程及使用食物模型或照片輔助學童回憶時對
食物的定量，並採用「台灣產常見食品之營養成份表」及「國人膳食之營養及熱量需
求分析程式庫」計算學童攝取午餐的熱量及各營養素資訊，研究者分別用百分比及標
準差、皮爾遜積差相關、平均數差異顯著性檢定及配對平均數差異顯著性檢定，進行
各項的考驗，研究結果發現：
一、如有多位訪談者使用二十四小時飲食回憶法進行訪談，則採用標準化訪談過程，
可以降低因訪談員訪談的差異而引起的誤差。
二、無論是使用食物模型或者照片輔助，學童對於食物項目的回憶，最佳的是飯及炒
青菜；最容易被省略的是混合烹調菜肴中佔較少量的配料及湯類；學童對於食物項目
回憶錯誤，有極重要的部份是因認知經驗不足或類化將食物錯認了。
三、無論是吏用良物模型或者照片輔助，學童對於食物量的回憶，平均重量誤差都頗
大；個別學童的估量誤差也相當大。學童傾向於描述其消費的食物量，就如同食物模
型或照片上的量。在研究中，除了照片組用不同大小杯子的圖片輔助醱酵乳定量，結
果較模型組用量杯輔助定量為佳之外，其餘食物用此二種工具輔助定量並無差異。
四、無論使用食物模型或照片輔助，學童回憶後所計算得到食物的熱量及營養素攝取
量，平均都偏向低估。當加上對烹調用油的估算後，由於學童對烹調方法認識不多或
回憶的省略及錯誤，轉換所得其攝取的熱量及指肪更形低估。以食物模型輔助者，其
群體在回憶及實際攝取的熱量及營養素之間的相關較照片輔助者為佳；，但無論是食
物模型或照片輔助者，其回憶所得的熱量及營養素皆無法絕對代表學童們群體實際攝
取的熱量及營養素。
針對以上，研究者提出旳建議有：
一、對學童進行營養教育方面：
（一）對學童進行營養教育時，我們應加強學童對於常吃食物名稱、所攝取食物量及
常使用烹調方法的認識及經驗，增強其對自己所攝取食物的注意及關心。
二、對未來研究方面：
（一）建議未來之研究者可提供不同份量大小的食物模型或照片，輔助受試者估量；
另外如使用分析生食的食物成份表，可依據不同烹調狀況製作熟食食物模型或照片輔
助定量，再根據不同的收縮率將估計之熟食食物重量轉換成不同生重後，再進分析，
或許可減少此方面的誤差。
（二）不同食物依據不同的烹調方式，使用的烹調用油量及調味品都不同，如何對其
定量，以增加在調查飲食消費資料上的正確性，有待研究者就這方面做更深入的研究
。
（三）建議可針對目前國人的飲食及烹調情形，就食物成份表進行修訂，增加加工食
碞及食物熟食狀況部份的資料，以供未來營養教育及研究使用。
（四）本研究中學童午餐乃採餐盤供應個人一份午餐的方式，對於學童在不同的進食
情況之下，如與家人或團體由公共餐盤中取食時，相同的飲食評估工具其布效性如何
，則有待進一步的研究。
[[alternative]]Study of The Undergraduates* Dieting Behavior and Food Related Parenting Style with Other Correlation Factors
No full text[[abstract]]The purpose of this study is to understand the tendency of dieting and related factors (i.e. sex, bodyweight history, family socioeconomic status, peer pressure, media influence and food related parenting style) of undergraduate students in Taiwan. A total of 984 undergraduate students were recruited from 16 universities selected by stratified random cluster sampling method. A self-administered questionnaire〝The Undergraduates* Dieting Behaviors and Related Factors Questionnaire〞as the measurement instrument which included peer and media influence scales, food related parenting style scale and dieting scale. The results indicated that Taiwanese college students had low tendency of dieting. Most (63.8%) of the undergraduates had low tendency of dieting, 30.8% of them are middle tendency of dieting and only5.4% of them are high tendency of dieting. The undergraduates* dieting behaviors are significantly related to their bodyweight. The higher the body weight, the higher the tendency of dieting. The tendency of dieting is also positively related with parents* encouragement of dieting during childhood. The results also showed that some undergraduates adopted unhealthy ways to lose weight.Female students have a higher tendency of dietinever be neglected.
[[alternative]]Study of the Body Image and Dietary Restraint in Adolescence
No full text[[abstract]]Study of the Body Image and Dietary Restraint in AdolescenceAbstractThe purpose of this study is to understand adolescent's body image and dietary restraint. A total of 822 students from 19 junior high schools and 8 elementary schools completed self-administered Adolescent's Body Image and Dietary Restraint Questionnaire which included demographic variables, The Multidimensional Body-Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ), Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ), and Body Shape Related Teasing Scale.Results indicated that, in spite of actual body shape, the majority of adolescent boys expected normal body figure, and adolescent girls excepted slim body figure. Teasing exprience, adoration of model's figure and interest in career related to body figure have significant influence on adolecent's body image. Body image disturbances are more likely to occur on overweight adolescence especially girls, and those who perceived pressure for thinness or adored idol's body figure. Overweight preoccupation is a significant factor of dietary restraint. Overweight adolescence is who perceived himself / herself as fat, wish to lose more weight or had more teasing experience, had higher degree of restrained eating. Adolescent girls who overconcern body shape and weight, perceived herself as fat and expected to be thin, tend to have higher degree of dietary restraint in order to maintain or achieve the ideal figure. They are at risk of disinhibition, and more likely to become eating disorders in the furture.
[[alternative]]Relevant Research of the Lifestyle and Quality of Life of the Elderly in Taiwan Community
No full text[[abstract]]The main purpose of this research is to find out about the relationship between lifestyle and quality of life of the elderly in Taiwan. It also focuses on the factors that influence quality of life. The materials are based on the data of the Nutrition and Health Survey of the elderly in Taiwan 1999-2000, and the number of samples amount to 1937 elderly over 65 years old. The result of study shows that the health status of elderly is quite well. Their diet is usually rice, noodles, vegetables, and fruits. According to the factor analysis, there are five dietary patterns: desserts, healthy food, meat、fish and milk, soybean food, coffee and egg, which explains 50.11% of the variation. Physical activity and sleep quality are in the middle level, and addictive behavior is not serious. For the qulaity of life, the highest is body pain and social function; the lowest is general health and vitality. According to the cluster analysis, there are three kinds of lifestyle. The first is that they always eat a lot of different kinds of food. Their health is better; the sex drive of males is higher; the average age is younger; the education level is higher; having job experience is higher; living with a spouse is more likely and their ecnonmic status and quality of life is better. The second is that they always eat very few kinds of food. Their health is worse; the average of males and females is half and half; the average age is older; the education level is lower; having job experience is lower; living with a spouse is lower and ecnonmic status and quality of life is worse. The last lifestyle is that they like to eat the desserts, demography variation, health status, and quality of life are between the other two kinds of lifestyle. The directly influencing factors for high quality of life are categorized as follows: the difference in the male's population; lower age; higher education; having job experience and having enough money for retirement. The health status is better, the quality of life is higher. Healthy dietary; physical activity and good sleep result in better quality of life. The health department should improve the health status and lifestyle as a key point, when they makes a plan for improve the elderly quality of life. They should consider the female first, then age, the education level, the job experience and ecnonmic status.
The Mission and Interitance of Takao Memories\ue2A Study of Lin Shu-Guang\ue2s Literary and Historical Writing
No full textLin Shu-Guang was born during the Japanese colonial period. As a Kaohsiung citizen, not only did he witness the various changes of Takao since the Japanese colonial period, but he also transcribed the Takao memories engraved in his mind, contributing a rich collection of local literature and history publications, which present the people, time, and space from a variety of aspects, giving readers a chance to perceive the historical background and the form of society at the time through his words. We cannot help but wonder what triggered Lin to take up his pen to record Takao? How did he embed the many-sided memories of himself, the officials, and the civilians into his works? What kind of emotions toward his hometown are contained in these works?
Therefore, the author attempts to reconstruct the written memories of Lin by analyzing and comparing his publications of Takao series, and those published on newspapers and magazines, to actual history, with the aid of documents and graphics that show the development history of Kaohsiung, in hopes to clarify the content of Lin\ue2s literature and history documents and its importance. First, the current study discusses the impact of Lin\ue2s life course on his literary works, including the content, form of writing, and writing techniques, which greatly present what Lin has been through in his life course. Secondly, the study mainly discusses the folk proverb written by Lin, exploring how he turned folk proverb, which is commonly used as sub-content, into the core, engraving the memories of the civilians and his own, weaving the emotions, time, and space into the written works. Lastly, the study puts Lin\ue2s writing of beliefs as the main focus, investigating his contribution to preserve the customs and deity beliefs of Kaohsiung, and the unbreakable connection between folk proverb and beliefs
