Summary:碩士 === 國立臺東大學 === 體育學系碩士班 === 100 === There were four purposes for the study of Taiwan professional outdoor adventure education mentoring indicator(TPOAMI); providing instructions for various outdoor related organizations, creating a standard guide for all outdoors adventure instructors, training and professionalism and for references. Through the article analysis and personal interview, suitable indicators of professions for TPOAMI were preliminarily constructed. The Delphi methods and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) were employed during three rounds of questionnaires. The response rate for the three rounds of questionnaires administrated was as follow: first round 100%, second round 95.7%, third round 95.45%. The content of the questionnaire included integrated opinions of experts from the following fields: domestic industrial community (Business), Government agencies (officers) and academia (schools). The result obtained can be ranked according to weighted percentage as follow: professional attitude (consisting of 2 aspects and 8 items, making up 38%), professional skills (consisting of 8 aspects and 52 items, making up 22%), professional growth (consisting of 3 aspects and 19 items, making up 21%) and professional knowledge (consisting of 7 aspects and 32 items, making up 19%). The conclusions of this study were: (1) TPOAMI can be ranked as follow: professional attitude, professional skills, professional growth, and professional knowledge. (2) The Instructors of TPOAMI should have 20 professional competence level indicators; there was greatest emphasis on risk control; greater emphasis should be placed on self-reflection and self-growth. (3) The Instructors of TPOAMI should have 113 professional competence item indicators: this is different from the previous studies carried out. Although there is a large number of item indicators, the standard of professional competence can be highlighted more explicitly.
