Abstract

近年來網路遊戲變成熱門的休閒活動,卻衍生不少犯罪問題。本研究旨在探討網路遊戲特性與犯罪行為之關係。目的:1. 瞭解目前網路遊戲及參與者的現況;2. 瞭解網路遊戲參與者認同之遊戲特性;3. 瞭解網路遊戲參與者犯罪知覺情形;4. 分析遊戲參與者人口統計變項與網路遊戲特性之關係;5. 探討遊戲參與者人口統計變項與網路遊戲犯罪行為知覺之關聯;6. 分析網路遊戲特性集群與遊戲犯罪行為知覺之關聯。研究方法以文獻整理、新聞分析與網路問卷調查,在2015年9月期間取得有效樣本401份。分析方法使用SPSS20.0版進行描述性統計、集群分析、單因子變異數分析及卡方檢定進行分析。研究結果:1. 網路遊戲參與者人口可依特性分為「重度資深經濟型玩家、中度年輕玩家、輕度高學歷玩家」;2. 網路遊戲參與者認同之遊戲特性可分為「簡單小遊戲型、角色主題任務型、連線對戰社群型、全面重視型」;3. 犯罪知覺接近程度依序為外掛程式、買賣詐欺、假冒身分竊取帳密虛寶、社交工程、冒用名義申請帳號或購買點數。4. 不同人口集群在競爭挑戰性、匿名性、虛擬性上有差異,與遊戲特性集群有顯著相關;5. 遊戲參與者人口集群與身份竊盜、利用工具、其他衍生之犯罪有顯著相關;6. 網路遊戲特性集群與身份竊盜、遊戲詐騙、利用工具、利用系統漏洞有顯著相關。研究建議根據研究結論之遊戲人口、特性以及常見犯罪以及特性與犯罪相關的元素,作為遊戲玩家、遊戲公司以及犯罪調查上之參考;後續研究上建議可加入訪談、田野調查以及實際參與的研究方式,深化研究內涵。
