職業婦女運動與睡眠品質及幸福感之關係—質性研究

Abstract

本研究旨在探討職業婦女在面對工作、家庭與運動需求時所遇到的挑戰，以及適量運動與良好睡眠對她們幸福感的影響。研究採用質性研究方法，透過半結構式訪談，深入了解職業婦女在日常生活中如何平衡多重角色，並探討不同生活方式對其身心健康和幸福感的影響。參與者為6 位年齡介於30至55歲之間的職業婦女。研究結果發現，時間管理是職業婦女在平衡工作、家庭與個人需求時面臨的主要挑戰。大部分受訪者表示，工作壓力和家庭責任使她們難以抽出足夠的時間進行規律運動或保持良好的睡眠。這些時間上的限制進一步影響了她們的身心健康和幸福感，使她們在追求幸福感時需要採取靈活且適應性的策略。研究還發現，適量運動和良好睡眠在提升職業婦女的幸福感方面各有優勢。部分受訪者認為，運動能即時改善情緒、增強自信心，對提升幸福感具有重要作用；而另一些受訪者則強調，良好的睡眠是保持高效工作和穩定情緒的關鍵，對幸福感的提升更為顯著。這表明，適量運動與良好睡眠對幸福感的影響因個體而異，每位職業婦女應根據自身需求找到適合自己的平衡點。本研究的結論指出，職業婦女的幸福感受多重因素影響，適量運動與良好睡眠都是不可或缺的要素。研究強調了靈活的時間管理、家庭支持及社會支持在提升職業婦女幸福感中的重要性。未來的政策制定和干預措施應考慮如何幫助職業婦女更好地平衡工作與生活，並通過靈活的工作安排和加強支持系統，促進她們在繁忙的生活中實現身心健康與幸福感的提升。這些發現為政策制定者和健康促進專業人士提供了寶貴的參考，有助於提高職業婦女的生活質量和整體幸福感。This study examined the challenges faced by career women in balancing work, family, and exercise, as well as the effects of exercise and quality of sleep on their well-being. Using a qualitative approach, semi-structured interviews were conducted to understand how career women balance their multiple roles and how their lifestyle impact their physical and mental health. Participants were six career women selected from various age groups, professions. Their age was ranged from 30 to 55. The results reveal that time management is a key challenge for career women trying to balance work, family, and personal needs. Most of participants indicated that work-related pressures and family responsibilities often leave them with insufficient time for regular exercise or adequate sleep. These time constraints negatively affect their health and well-being, highlighting the need for flexible and adaptive strategies to maintain well-being. In addition, the study found that both moderate exercise and good sleep are important for enhanc-ing happiness among career women, though their impacts vary. Some participants reported that exercise immediately lifts their mood and boosts self-confidence, contributing positively to their well-being. Others stressed that good sleep is essential for sustaining work performance and emotional balance, often having a more substantial effect on their well-being. This suggests that the relative importance of exercise and sleep may differ for each individual, and that career women need to find a balance that aligns with their personal needs. Overall, the study concludes that the well-being of career women depends on multiple factors, with exercise and sleep being crucial. It emphasizes the need for flexible time management, family support, and social net-works to improve their quality of life. Future policies should focus on enabling career women to better balance their responsibilities and enhance their health and happiness through supportive measures and flexible work options.
