成為單親家長是一個創傷性的經驗。雖然如此，仍有一些單親家長從婚姻困境中復原。本研究的目的在瞭解女性單親家長對婚姻困境的主觀經驗及其復原的原動力和結果，並探討影響女性單親家長生活適應的復原力。資料蒐集方式為深入訪談法，有效訪問了位離婚女性單親家長，焦點團體座談法也配合使用，以協助資料的三角交叉檢視。研究發現復原的單親家長具備有(1)積極樂觀的人格特質，(2)問題解決式的因應方法，(3)原生家庭充分支持，以及(4)能有效地使用社會支持與社會資源。由於時間與經費限制，本研究僅針對單親家長訪談，未能訪談整個單親家庭（包括其子女）；本研究最後並根據研究發現提出政策、實務及未來研究方向上的建議。

Being a single parent is not only a crisis, but also a traumatic experience. However, there are still some single parents who adjust well. In this study, we tried to explore the subjective experience, motive power, and result of resilience among female single parents who try to thrive under adversity due to divorce. We also tried to understand how resilience related to their adjustment after divorce. In depth interviews and focus group were conducted to collect data. The subjects were theoretically selected; however, they were diversified in terms of age, education and social class. Finally, subjects were successfully interviewed. The findings indicated that resilient female single parents were having(1)positive, optimistic personal characteristics, (2)problem-solving coping strategies, (3)supportive relationship with the family of origin, and (4)effective utilization of social support and social resources. Finally, practice and policy implications as well as research limitations were discussed.
