Abstract
This study was designed to assess the effects of a life education program “β project” developed by Tunghai University on the participants, using Tennessee Self-Concept II (Chinese version) and Life Attitude Profile (LAP) as instruments. Two stages of experiments and pretest-posttest nonequivalent groups design were implemented. In the first stage of experiment, treatment group (n = 34) participated in the β project, while the control group (n = 56) did not. In the second stage of experiment, the treatment group was divided into formal class group (n = 25) and informal class group (n = 48), while the control group (n = 66) did not receive the treatment. Self concept and life attitude were measured before and after this program in both experiments. ANCIVA was used to examine the differences between the groups. The results indicated that: (1) In the first experiment, the β project raised treatment group’s self concept and life attitude; (2) In the second experiment, the informal class group’s self concept and life attitude were higher than the other groups after the β project.
