Summary:碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 圖書資訊與檔案學研究所 === 107 === The purpose of this study is to explore the reading behavior of dystopian fiction fans. In this study, the researcher interviewed 23 dystopian fiction fans by qualitative research method. The conclusion of this study are: 1. The main background of dystopian fiction fans are more female readers than male readers; the number of young readers is more than older readers; the academic qualifications of the readers are generally above the university; the graduate departments of the readers are mostly in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences; the occupations of the readers are mostly college students; the readers live mostly in the northern part of Taiwan. 2. The “information demand motivation” of most dystopian fiction fans are mainly “self-awareness”; the “information demand process” of most dystopian fiction fans are mainly starting reading in “school stage”, based on “subjective choice” to choose the dystopian fiction and “preference form” are “paper book”; the “information usage” of most dystopian fiction fans are mainly for “entity sharing” and the preference for “reading places” are mainly “home”. 3. The reading experience of most dystopian fiction fans conform to the “conditional factors” and “subjective experience” of Flow Theory. 4. The reading perceptions of most dystopian fiction fans have gone through three stages of “Identification”, “Catharsis” and “Insight” of Bibliotherapy. The recommendations based on the results of this study are: 1. Libraries: Narrow down the urban-rural disparity, run a second hand book trade mediation system, hold a reading club. 2. Publishers: Train the local authors, strengthen the connection of fictions with other texts and non-texts, the books need to be lightweight and small, boost the interest of e-books reading and audio books listening. 3. Authors: Try different role targeting settings, design the content from the reader's point of view.
