更年期婦女面臨身心社會及家庭結構改變之衝擊，然而少探討更年期婦女之家庭改變相關研究。本研究探討更年期婦女與青少女之親子關係。樣本來自臺灣嘉南地區某專科校內學生與母親，立意取樣70位正處於停經中期及後期之更年期婦女，以及其70位護生女兒，以結構問卷進行面對面言談式資料收集，研究工具包含基本資料與親子關係量表，使用SPSS 10.0版進行資料分析。結果發現：（1）婦女與青春期女兒知覺親子關係　以正向為多，且依附感行為表現強烈。（2）婦女與其青春期女兒親子關係之「依附感」、「缺乏自主感」、「回報壓力」、「敬佩感」、及「工具功能」間有顯著差異。（3）青春期少女知覺親子關係皆高於其母親。根據上述結果得知，建議更年期婦女照護應跳脫疾病醫療之範疇，將婦女有關之社會心理層次：如親子關係，納入評估與護理處置，並藉由鼓勵婦女其規劃更年期生活需涵蓋其親子關係行為。

　　　　　Climacteric women face multidimensional changes including physical, psychological, social changes and changesin family structure. However, there have been few studies about the related family structure changes for climacteric women. The purpose of this study was to explore the parent-child relations between climacteric women and their adolescent daughters. Data was collected by interview, using Parent-Child Relations Scale questionnaires with purposive sampling of 70 female (mothers) who were in perimenopausal or post-menopause and 70 current nursing students (daughters) who were studying at a junior nursing college. A total of 140 subjects were recruited from residents of the Chiayi-Tainan area of Taiwan. SPSS for Windows 10.0 was used. The results indicated that the most of the women had positive parent-child relationships, and demonstrated that the women’s sense of attachment was quite strong. Significant differentiation was found for the dimensions “sense of attachment”, “without sense of autonomy”, “sense of indebtedness”, “sense of respect” and “instrumental valence” between perimenopausal mothers and their daughters (p<0.01). In addition, the teenage girls’ perception of the parent-child relationship was higher than the mothers’ (p<0.01). It is therefore suggested that nursing care should go beyond the scope of disease treatment and include related socio-psychological priorities, such as the parent-child relationship, in evaluation and nursing procedures, and encourage middle-aged women to include their parent-child relationships in their life planning.
