本研究旨在瞭解溫王爺信眾之信奉行為、對該信仰社會功能的看法是否有差異性，並探討二者間的關係。正式問卷調查384 位研究樣本，以推論母群體；研究結論如下：一、金錢捐獻是大多數信眾的奉獻行為；父母亦是信仰初始引領者；義工的投入尚待引領；「平安、健康、改運解厄」是拜拜動機最重要的祈求。二、溫王爺信仰對東港民眾而言，是非常重要的信仰；地域歸屬感及居住逾20年、國中以下教育程度者於信仰文化較深植。三、性別對信仰社會功能的看法無顯著差異；女性信奉行為的參與部分受限，已婚者、家管家庭照護的角色強化其信奉行為。四、拜拜次數非信奉行為投入程度觀察的指標。五、信眾對信仰之社會性功能贊成程度最高，但並未反應於信奉行為。六、年齡及教育程度具影響性；中上教育程度的青年及中壯年對信仰文化的「傳承」時代意義與重要性有不同的註解。根據研究結果對東港東隆宮、社區、學校、及未來研究等提出具體建議供參考。

This research aims to find Un Ongia's follower's behaviors, and whether their viewpoints of the belief on social function are different. The research questionnaire is given to 384 samples. The implication from the results are as follows: 1. Most followers usually give contribution to the temple; parents are also the first leader of their children's religion. More volunteers for Un Ongia are expected; "safety, health, and modification of the fortune" are the main reasons why people pray for god. 2. Un Ongia is one of the most important religious beliefs to residents in Donggang. People who have lived in this area over 20 years and whose educational level is lower than junior high school have a rooted belief. 3. Both sex hold the same viewpoints on the effects of religion on the society. However, the involvement of female followers is limited partially because of conventions and customs. The role and need of the married or housewives strengthens their belief. 4. Times of worshiping the god isn't the indication for observing how many followers involve in the religion. 5. Most followers agree on the effects of belief on the social function，but it is not seen in their religions behavior. 6. Age and the level of education influence whether people believe in Un Ongia. The youth and middle-aged receiving education have different explanation for passing the belief down to next generation. Based on the research results, the research could be the reference for the Tung-lung temple in Donggang, community clubs, schools and the future research.
