Summary:碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 圖書資訊與檔案學研究所 === 107 === This study aims to develop “Observation Tool of Viewpoint Migration and Age Division” for supporting research on digital humanities, allowing humanists dividing texts with time continuity into several phases to train word vectors. Word vectors are regarded as the reference for relational vocabulary with the highest relevance in various phases to mine input keywords. Grouping is also applied to assist users in analyzing whether two neighboring phases require split or merge to determine better perspective change observation vocabulary and phase division. Meanwhile, real-time interaction interface is provided for assisting users, through human-computer interaction, in grasping large amount of contexts with specific subjects in texts with time continuity. Experimental research is applied in this study to compare the significant promotion of comprehension of specific subjects in texts and the remarkable change in cognition of research subjects before and after using “Observation Tool of Viewpoint Migration and Age Division”. Technology acceptance questionnaire, semi-structured interview, and think aloud are utilized for understanding the experiment objects’ opinions and perception of “Observation Tool of Viewpoint Migration and Age Division”. Lag sequential analysis is also used for observing the experiment objects’ behavior processes using “Observation Tool of Viewpoint Migration and Age Division” to induce the notable difference in the operation behavior process and model between experiment objects with high and low effectiveness. The experimental results reveal that the experiment objects, after using “Observation Tool of Viewpoint Migration and Age Division”, significantly promote the grasp of specific subjects in texts, but the number of times using special functions of “Observation Tool of Viewpoint Migration and Age Division” would not result in remarkable effects on the grasp of specific subjects. Moreover, lag sequential analysis shows that high-effectiveness users present potential behavior sequence to use core functions in the behavior processing of using “Observation Tool of Viewpoint Migration and Age Division”, while low-effectiveness users do not appear such sequence and show fragment on the operation process. It reveals that the operation process of core functions in “Observation Tool of Viewpoint Migration and Age Division” could effectively enhance users’ grasp of specific subjects in texts. Furthermore, the interview data and technology acceptance scale reveal highly positive evaluation of the experiment objects on “Observation Tool of Viewpoint Migration and Age Division”. It presents that such a tool could rapidly and conveniently allow them understanding the context of specific subjects in large amount of texts with time continuity. Grouping also helps them verify the appropriateness of phase division; however, the accuracy of relational vocabulary, interface display, and process design still require further improvement. The tool could analyze other texts with time continuity, compare the applicability of different correlation analyses, and attempt to combine with digital humanities education to develop an effective tool to promote digital humanities education.
