摘要

本研究通过半结构式访谈调查母校游客的动机和体验。我们认为，高等教育机构是介于原籍地和生育地之间的探索之家。这个 "探索之家 "处于人生的边缘阶段，在这个阶段，一个人可以获得真正的自由。母校游客重游高等学府，追忆真实的自己，体验幸福、怀旧和其他情感的独特交融。本文将用真实性、精神中心、推拉因素和生命历程理论等社会学概念来解释这种体验。

The motivation and experience of alma mater tourists

This study investigates alma mater tourists' motivation and experience through semi-structured interviews. We propose that one's tertiary educational institution serves as a Home of Exploration between one's Home of Origin and Home of Procreation. This Home of Exploration occupies a liminal stage in life when one can be truly free. Alma mater tourists revisit their places of higher education to reminisce about the days when they were authentic to themselves and experience a unique blend of happiness, nostalgia, and other emotions. This experience is explained herein with sociological concepts including authenticity, spiritual center, push and pull factors, and life course theory.
