本研究以新住民子女（俗稱的「新台灣之子」）為對象，探討他們的形象在本國媒體的取材報導中，是否隨著時間有所變化。分析資料主要蒐集自民國98年至民國102年之相關報導，以「內容分析法」作為分析方法。研究樣本透過國家圖書館的「新聞知識庫」及「聯合知識庫」搜尋新台灣之子相關之新聞。 本研究結果發現新住民子女在聯合報和自由時報兩報的相關報導中，呈現出的主題最多者為「教育生活」主題；而在報別版面方面，聯合報報導則數310則，自由時報報導則數70則，顯示聯合報對新住民子女議題較為關注，且在報導版面上聯合報在綜合新聞版44.8%最多，自由時報在焦點新聞版38%最多，報導方向方面，無明顯偏向最多，負面新聞漸少；報導新住民子女的形象方面，多著重在學習表現。 Focusing on children of new immigrants in Taiwan (commonly known as “new Taiwanese children”), this study investigated changes in media choice of materials related to the image of this population over time. Based on “content analysis method”, this study collected newspaper reports on this group of citizens published during 2009~2013 from National Central Library’s “Newspaper in Taiwan” Database and “Udndata.com”. Results indicated that among the reports published by United Daily News and Liberty Times, most reports about new Taiwanese children were in the category of “education and life”. In total, United Daily News had 310 articles related to this group of population published during this period of time, whereas Liberty Times had only 70, implying that United Daily News paid more attention to issues related to new immigrants’ children. Among the various newspaper pages, United Daily News had more articles (44.8%) published in the “general news page”, and Liberty Times had more articles (38%) published in the “news focus page”. Both publishers showed no significant orientation in their news about new Taiwanese children and had a gradual decline in the number of negative reports about them. Their reporting on the image of this population was more focused on “achievement in learning”.
