VTubers, also known as virtual YouTubers, have rapidly gained popularity in recent years. VTubers operate as virtual avatars on the screen, concealing their real identities and appearances. Through these virtual avatars, VTubers can simultaneously showcase the charm of animated characters and their authentic personalities, allowing viewers to experience a sense of virtual companionship. Despite the growing popularity of VTubers worldwide and the increasing number of scholars conducting research in this area, there are relatively few scholars who have explored the reasons why VTubers are loved by viewers. Therefore, this study examines the factors that fascinate viewers of VTubers and their influence on continued watching and intention to recommend. Through analyzing the experiences of 412 viewers who have watched VTuber livestreams, this study validates the proposed model and hypotheses. The results of the study show that external factors such as VTuber traits and anthropomorphism play an important role in generating parasocial interaction. Internal factors such as the need for escapism and emotional trust are crucial for generating emotional attachment. Parasocial interaction and emotional attachment have a positive and significant impact on continued watching and intention to recommend. Based on the findings, theoretical and practical contributions are presented with the hope of providing assistance to future VTubers in channel operation.參考文獻 Ainsworth, M. D. S., Blehar, M.

VTubers operate as virtual avatars on the screen, concealing their real identities and appearances. Through these virtual avatars, VTubers can simultaneously showcase the charm of animated characters and their authentic personalities, allowing viewers to experience a sense of virtual companionship. Despite the growing popularity of VTubers worldwide and the increasing number of scholars conducting research in this area, there are relatively few scholars who have explored the reasons why VTubers are loved by viewers. Therefore, this study examines the factors that fascinate viewers of VTubers and their influence on continued watching and intention to recommend. Through analyzing the experiences of 412 viewers who have watched VTuber livestreams, this study validates the proposed model and hypotheses. The results of the study show that external factors such as VTuber traits and anthropomorphism play an important role in generating parasocial interaction. Internal factors such as the need for escapism and emotional trust are crucial for generating emotional attachment. Parasocial interaction and emotional attachment have a positive and significant impact on continued watching and intention to recommend. Based on the findings, theoretical and practical contributions are presented with the hope of providing assistance to future VTubers in channel operation. en_US dc.description.tableofcontents 第一章 緒論 1第一節 研究背景 1第二節 研究動機 3第三節 研究目的 4第四節 研究流程 5第二章 文獻探討 6第一節 VTuber 6第二節 擬人化 7第三節 資訊相關性 9第四節 逃避現實 11第五節 情感信任 12第六節 歸因理論 13第七節 擬社會互動 15第八節 情感依戀 17第九節 行為意圖 19第三章 研究方法 22第一節 研究架構 22第二節 研究假說 22第三節 操作型定義 31第四節 研究設計 36第四章 研究分析 38第一節 問卷回收 38第二節 敘述性統計分析 39第三節 測量模型分析 43第四節 結構方程模型分析 55第五節 結果討論 61第五章 結論 66第一節 研究貢獻 67第二節 研究限制與建議 68參考文獻 70附錄—研究問卷 82 zh_TW dc.format.extent 3558200 bytes - dc.format.mimetype application/pdf - dc.source.uri (資料來源) http://thesis.lib.nccu.edu.tw/record/#G0110356036 en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) VTuber zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 擬社會互動 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 情感依戀 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 持續觀看意圖 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 推薦意圖 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) VTuber en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Parasocial Interaction en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Emotional Attachment en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Intention to Continuous Viewing en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Intention to Recommend en_US dc.title (題名) 探討持續觀看與推薦VTuber之因素 zh_TW dc.title (題名) Exploring the Factors of Continuous Watching and Recommendation of VTuber en_US dc.type (資料類型) thesis en_US dc.relation.reference (參考文獻) Ainsworth, M.
