Abstract:

Families with disabled children (FWDC) bear considerable pressure to participate in leisure activities. In this study, 15 groups of FWDC who had been helped by tourism volunteers were interviewed about stress in leisure activities and feelings about interacting with volunteers. The results were as follows:1. Active participation in leisure activities can improve the resilience of FWDC; 2. Tourism volunteers can help FWDC have a new interpretation and cognition of stressful events during leisure activities. Therefore, the study concluded that (1) before participating in leisure activities, tourism volunteers should focus on cultivating their own personality traits to be open, pleasant, and responsible; and (2) in the process of participating in leisure activities, tourism volunteers should help FWDC with obstacles and pressure to be a “valuable experience” or “growth opportunity,” providing technical assistance to FWDC in terms of self-cognition, self-improvement, tourism demands, and social resources. Tourism volunteers should also help FWDC build resilience to have optimistic acceptance, a vision of the future, and the significance of adversity through communication, interaction, and emotional connections. The interview analysis also revealed many obstacles and problems in the actual operation process of tourism volunteers participating in the family leisure activities of children with disabilities. Establishing and improving the participation mechanisms of tourism volunteers and cultivating excellence are important tasks for future research. This study provides a new perspective on the significance of tourism volunteers' work.

Key words: tourism volunteers, families with disabled children (FWDC), family resilience, leisure activities

摘要:

残障儿童家庭在参与休闲活动过程中承受着种种压力。本研究对15组曾得到旅游志愿者帮助的残障儿童家庭,就休闲活动中的压力事件及与志愿者的互动感受等相关问题进行了访谈研究,发现:(1)积极参与休闲活动可提升残障儿童家庭的抗逆能力;(2)旅游志愿者可以帮助残障儿童家庭对休闲活动过程中的压力事件进行新解读和新认知。本文认为:(1)在休闲活动开展前,旅游志愿者自身应注重培养开放性、宜人性、责任性的人格特征和魅力;(2)在休闲活动过程中,旅游志愿者应通过沟通互动和情感联结的方式帮助残障儿童家庭将活动中遇到的障碍、危机和压力视为一种宝贵经验和成长机遇;(3)旅游志愿者可以在自我认知、自我提升、旅游需求、社会资源等方面给予残障儿童家庭技术援助,以帮助残障儿童家庭发展乐观接纳、未来设想和逆境成长的抗逆能力。本文为探讨旅游志愿者的工作意义提供了新的思考视角。
