本文係運用2000年臺閩地區戶口及住宅普查，建構原住民有偶 人口配對資料，並論析該配對資料的特性與長處，說明此資料在原漢通婚研究應用上的長處、特性與適用性。研究發現如下：（1）說明普查資料配對的流程，除針對配對資料進行特性說明外，亦對未能配對資料進行資料特性推估；（2）較之國外普查配對資料的處理，本文建構之普查配對資料更涵蓋了其他親屬配對，比較單純以戶長配對與其他親屬配對在資料結構特性上的差異；（3）運用一對以上的家戶配對資料，進行代間婚配模式的初步分析，發現父母的婚配對子女的婚配形式有所影響；（4）利用普查配對資料比對全台原住民調查資料，釐清原住民婚配模式與外婚傾向上的異同，突顯普查配對資料的代表性與重要性。若能進一步運用此配對資料探討臺灣原漢通婚現象，或可補充現今族群通婚研究中相對缺少的原住民與漢族通婚區塊，以使臺灣族群關係及通婚論述更為完備。

In this paper, we use data from the 2000 Taiwan population census to demonstrate the potential and merits of the data in studying ethnic intermarriage between the indigenous and Han people. The main findings are as follows. (1) By interpreting the data matching process, we can better understand the characteristics of the matched data and also speculate as to the characteristics of the unmatched ones. (2) In contrast with the existing comparable studies, our pair data include not only household heads and their spouses but also the other kinship couples in the household. Hence, after comparing the social demographic attributes between different kinship couples, we are more confident of the data quality. (3) Including other kinship couples within households, we can observe the changing marital patterns between generations and reveal how intermarriage parents affect their children’s out-marrying propensity. (4) Moreover, under cross-examination of the intermarriage trend with other ethnic survey data, we highlight the representative nature and importance of census pair data. Base on the main findings, we make some suggestions for the future research of applying census pair data and hope to enrich the literature on relatively understudied indigenous and Han Chinese intermarriage in particular and ethnic intermarriage research in general.
