本研究旨在探討臺灣英語遊學團參與者在遊學過程中的跨文化適應，以及遊學體驗對增進全球觀與個人發展的情形。利用問卷調查法，針對參加民間某遊學代辦中心的暑期美國舊金山遊學團學生，團員共90名爲研究對象。共得有效問卷76份，有效率爲90.5％。將問卷以敘述統計、t檢定、單因子變異數分析、積差相關等統計方法進行分析。結果發現，參與者在文化適應、全球觀與個人發展都達到中上的程度。性別不同在跨文化體認、全球狀態知覺部分有差異；曾經有過遊學經驗者比第一次參與遊學團者較能增進全球狀態知覺；遊學四週的參與者，在資料蒐集部分比三週的參與者有較好的準備；不同年級的參與者，在敏銳開放性部分呈現顯著差異。文化適應的開放性與全球觀和個人發展的相關皆達顯著，且出發前的準備工作、對遊學國家的了解有助於遊學的適應與全球觀和個人發展。

This paper examines the impact that a short-term study abroad program has on participants' cross-cultural adaptability, global perspective enhancement and personal development. One participant survey was administered to students traveling to San Francisco, U.S., and a total of 76 valid samples were received. The data indicated that the short-term tour enhanced cultural awareness and global perspective. Individual differences, such as gender, study abroad experience, the duration and grade level, are noted and the paper provides some discussion of the impact of the study abroad program on specific subscales within the instrument. Cultural open-mindedness and well preparation help better cross-cultural adaptability and global perspective development.
