本研究旨在探究中高齡使用者在社群網路環境中資訊分享行為受到資訊分享動機之影響程度，並透過資訊分享行為之影響使用者獲得社會支持與幸福感之感受程度，以及不同個人背景使用者之網路社群使用現況(每天使用社群時間、每天使用即時通訊軟體時間與在即時通訊好友人數)、網路社群類型(網路社群網站、即時通訊軟體、網路社群分享內容)、資訊分享行為、資訊分享動機、社會支持和幸福感的差異情形。
本研究以中高齡網路社群使用者為研究對象，主要透過網路問卷與紙本問卷之兩種方式進行資料收集，共回收問卷458份，剔除條件不符及存有遺漏值無效問卷45份，總有效問卷為413份。研究結果摘述如下：
一、年齡、教育程度與網路使用經驗對網路社群使用現況(每天使用社群時間、每天使用社群時間時間與在即時通訊好友人數)上具影響。
二、性別、年齡、教育程度與網路使用經驗對網路社群類型(網路社群網站、即時通訊軟體、網路社群分享內容)上具影響。
三、年齡、教育程度與網路使用經驗對資訊分享行為具顯著影響。
四、在資訊分享行為與資訊分享動機中，社交效用性是以男性的分數顯著高於女性的分數；而男性比起女性在資訊分享動機更強烈；內隱價值與成就價值在不同年齡族群上皆有顯著的差異。
五、在資訊分享行為在社會支持中，情緒性支持與訊息支持在不同年齡族群上皆有顯著的差異，66歲以上使用者明顯高於年齡較低之使用者。
六、在資訊分享行為與幸福感中，以女性在人際關係中較容易獲得滿足；生活滿滿意度在不同教育程度上有顯著的差異，國中以下使用者生活滿意度低於其他較高教育程度者。
七、資訊分享行為會受到期望回饋、內隱價值及社交效用性此三個變項的正向影響。
八、幸福感之生活滿意度與人際關係會受到社會支持變項的正向影響，以及資訊分享行為會透過社會支持此中介因子對幸福感產生顯著的正向影響。
最後根據本研究結果進行結論與討論，並對教育上及未來研究提出建議。

The study aimed to explore the motivation of information sharing behaviors of middle to older aged adults in social networking sites and the effects of the information sharing behaviors on perceived social support and subjective well being. For the users having various personal backgrounds, the following were also investigated: the differences in the status of social network usage (e.g. daily time spending on the social networking sites and instant messenger, and number of friends on most used social media), the type of social media selected (e.g. social networking sites and instant messenger), information sharing behaviors, information sharing motivations, social supports, and subjective well-being.
The present study targeted users in middle to older age, and was performed by conducting data collection both via online and paper questionnaires. Even though a total of 458 questionnaires were collected, only 413 valid questionnaires were used for hypotheses testing. The results of the present study are summarized below:
1.Age, education level, and Internet experience influenced the status of social network usage (e.g. daily time spending on the social networking sites or on the instant messenger, and the number of friends on most used social media).
2.Gender, age, education level, and Internet experience have effects on the type of social meida selected (e.g. social networking sites and instant messenger).
3.Age, education level, and Internet experience significantly influenced information sharing behaviors.
4.Concerning information sharing behaviors and information sharing motivation, the scores of social utility of males were higher than that of females. Males had stronger information sharing motivation than females. Both the differences of the intrinsic value and the differences of the achievement value among various age groups were significant.
5.Regarding to the influences of information sharing behaviors on the two aspects of social supports, both the differences of emotional supports and information supports among various age groups were significant, and the two aspects of social supports of the users at the age of 66 or elder were higher in level than those of the users at younger age.
6.As to the effects of information sharing behaviors on subjective well being, females obtained satisfaction in interpersonal relationships more easily than males. As for the other sub-construct of subjective well being, life satisfaction, there was a significant difference found among various education levels, and the degree of life satisfaction of the users having an education level of middle school or lower was lower than that of the users having other education levels.
7.Three determines (motivation) of information sharing behaviors were found, and they are the expected feedback, intrinsic value, and social utility.
8.The subjective well being and its two sub-constructs, life satisfaction and interpersonal relationship, were positively affected by perceived social support. The perceived social support was also found to be the significant mediator between information sharing behaviors and subjective well being of the subjects.
Finally, based on the results of the present study, conclusion and discussion were made. Furthermore, suggestions were also included for education administrators and future studies.
