天主教新竹教區的邊緣青少年服務中心（簡稱邊青中心）本著福音的價值，深耕邊緣青少年生命，不同於一般的管理主義、標準化流程或結案績效等嚴格規訓，邊青中心採取全人且長期陪伴關懷為主要方式，願意給心靈受傷的邊緣青少年較長時間，希望他們接受關懷時，超性能力（善的力量）會自然地附與動力使他們蒙發內在的善、了解善。本次研究以量化研究探討機構處遇對青少年的影響。根據研究和實務經驗，邊緣青少年問題可能有：1.偏差行為；2.心理健康問題；3.物質使用（喝酒、抽菸、檳榔和嗑藥等）等三項行為，並運用行為檢核表、TSCC－A Booklet和融合The American Drug and Alcohol Survey以及一些臺灣健康行為調查問卷等測量工具，先選取60位2013年進入機構青少年為樣本，2015年給予前測，並於18至20個月後再對青少年施以後測，利用實驗設計，比較前測和後測的量表結果是否顯著不同。研究結果顯示：1.在行為上，關於情緒自我和人際互動上，青少年多有改善；2.在藥物上，顯示影響較高的K他命使用已獲控制；3.在創傷症狀上，在青少年情緒管理和心理安全層面有些微改善。整體來看，邊青的處遇方法應是有成效的。

The Youth at Risk Ministry Office of the Catholic Diocese of Hsinchu, which is based on the value of the Gospel, cultivates deeply into the lives of the youth at risk. The approach is different from the strict social work doctrine of managerialism, standard procedure or cost-benefit performance. It uses the whole person's caring approach and long term involvement to accompany psychologically traumatized youth at risk, with the hope that when juveniles receive the ＂care＂ a transcendent energy will naturally entrust them with the power to sprout inner goodness as well as the understanding of what is good. This research used quantitative methods to explore the intervention effectiveness of the agency toward these youth at risk. Based on the research and practical experience, the deviant behaviors of the youth at risk probably in the areas of 1. problematic behaviors, 2. psychological health problems, and 3. alcohol intake, smoking, chewing betel nut and drug abuse. We used the measurement tools of the Behavior Checklist, TSCC-A Booklet and combined the questionnaires of the American Drug and Alcohol Survey and the Taiwanese Healthy Behavior Survey to measure the behavior scores of these youth. We selected 60 sample of those youth who entered the agency in 2013, gave a pretest at 2015 and gave a posttest at 2017. We used the experimental design to compare whether there was a significant difference between the scores of pretest and posttest. We also compared the statistics of the deviant behaviors of the youth in the agency in the past(2009-2015) and present(2017) (please see the appendix 2). The results of the experimental design were as follows: 1. In the behavior checklist, the results showed many improvements of the youth in the areas of emotional self- control and interpersonal interaction. 2. In the drug use scale, the result showed that the Ketamine use had been under control. 3. In the trauma scale, the results indicated that there were some improvements in the youth's emotional control and psychological security. In conclusion, it is proven that the intervention method of the Youth at Risk Ministry Office is effective in general.
