[摘要]
本研究主要在探討台灣社會家產繼承性別偏好的決定因素為何，以「台灣地區社會變遷基
本調查資料」的四期二次家庭組中1961個有效樣本為研究對象，探討現今的台灣社會是否
仍普遍存在著偏好兒子的家產繼承方式；除了族群的因素之外，世代、婚姻狀況、社會結
構位置對家產繼承性別偏好的影響如何；以及控制社會結構位置的影響之後，族群對於家
產繼承性別偏好的影響力是否仍顯著。利用邏輯迴歸分析的研究結果顯示，在現今台灣社
會中，家產繼承的性別偏好依然存在於家庭中，而影響台灣社會家產繼承性別偏好的因素
為：世代差異、個人婚姻狀況、社會結構位置（原生家庭居住地、父親教育程度、父親所
處行業、父親主要職業及家中有無兄弟）等因素。至於在過去相關的研究中被視為具有重
要影響力的族群因素，在本研究中未達統計上的顯著水準。顯示族群對於台灣家庭家產繼
承性別偏好的重要性可能是一個迷思，族群對於家產繼承性別偏好的影響，可以由社會結
構位置所取代。

[摘要]
The main focus of this article is directed at discussing the determinants of
the gender-biased intergenerational inheritance practice in Taiwan. The author
uses "2001 Taiwanese Social Change Survey" to answer the following question:
Firstly, is son-preference still prevalent in inheritance practice nowadays in
Taiwan? Secondly, What factors would influence the gender preference of
inheritance practice apart from ethnicity? And thirdly, after controlling for
the impact of social structure status, does the ethnicity factor still
constitute a significant determinant? Using logistic regression, the thesis
finds suggests that gender-biased practices are still exist in Taiwan, and
there are three main factors behind the gender-biased practices: cohorts,
marital status, and social structural locations (including original family
residence, father’s education level, father’s working sector, father’s
occupation). The results generally indicate that the belief in importance of
the role played by ethnicity might be nothing more than a myth. There is a
possibility that ethnicity might be the result of social structure locations
of parents. Nevertheless, it does not imply that ethnicities will not play a
part in gender-biased inheritance practice at all, after controlling for the
social structure locations determinant. There are other ethnicity-related
factors (such as social network and family pressure) that may also affect
gender preference during the dividing of family assets.
