| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立花蓮師範學院 === 國民教育研究所 === 91 === Asthma is becoming more and more popular throughout the world; and has become a critical concern regarding national health for the nations around the world. Asthma not only affects the school children physically and psychologically, but also obstructs school children with respect to school adjustment. There are a number of studies on asthma, but most researches concentrated on the influence imposed by asthma to the school children via quantitative statistics methods. Few researchers have studied the school children’s self-regulation procedure regarding school adjustment. Therefore, this study attempts to find out the asthmatic school children’s self-regulation process based upon the interviews with the asthmatic school children and their mothers as well as school teachers via qualitative research methods.
The research results are summarized as follows:
1. According to this study, 3 asthmatic school children had regulated themselves to a certain extent when they dealt with the issues related to school adjustment. This study also found Pintrich’s 3 phases of general framework regarding self-regulated learning process from the 3 participants. However, the strategies adopted by 3 interviewees and their self-regulation procedures were quite different.
2. Based upon the interview results, the mothers, school teachers, and classmates play critical roles regarding the asthmatic school children’s self-regulation process regarding school adjustment. The mothers and school teachers’ guidance and assistance as well as the classmates’ attitudes affected the asthmatic school children’s self-regulation process.
3. This study highlights the asthmatic school children’s problems regarding school adjustment, which really needs to be taken care of. Based upon the interview results, the school children suffering from minor asthma have problems with school adjustment due to their interactions with schoolteachers and classmates resulted from the asthmatic school children’s limited mobility.
Based upon the findings, this study presents recommendations on the health care for the asthmatic school children and on the future research.
