    • 本研究探討跨種族亞洲領養者如何在數位文化環境中建構與重構身分，聚焦敘事在結構性與平臺可見性條件下的作用，並指出領養者身分在主流數位敘事中常呈現碎片化與不一致的狀態。

    研究採質性敘事研究設計，結合問卷、半結構式訪談與主題分析。結果顯示，身分建構由三個動態構成：跨文化協商、結構性條件影響的歸屬取得，以及作為能動性的敘事選擇與可見性控制。

    基於此，本研究提出「包容性敘事重構框架」（INRF），說明身分如何在結構限制下透過敘事持續重構，並將身分視為動態生成的過程。

    研究貢獻於敘事身分與數位敘事研究，強調領養者敘事的關係性與策略性，並指出數位平臺同時具備表達與限制的雙重特性。

    This study examines how transracial Asian adoptees construct and reconstruct identity within digital cultural environments, focusing on storytelling as a process shaped by structural conditions and platform-mediated visibility. It addresses the problem that adoptee identities are often fragmented or inconsistently represented in dominant cultural and digital narratives, limiting coherent self-representation and narrative agency.

    A qualitative narrative research design is used, combining survey data, semi-structured interviews, and thematic analysis. Findings show that identity construction is shaped by three dynamics: ongoing negotiation across cultural contexts, structural conditions influencing access to heritage and belonging, and storytelling as agency enabling selective visibility and self-representation in digital spaces.

    Based on these findings, the study proposes the Inclusive Narrative Reconstruction Framework (INRF), which explains how identity is continuously reconstructed through storytelling under structural constraints. The framework integrates identity negotiation, structural conditions, and narrative agency to conceptualize identity as an ongoing process rather than a fixed state.

    The study contributes to narrative identity and digital storytelling research by framing adoptee storytelling as relational and strategic meaning-making. It also highlights how digital platforms simultaneously enable expression and impose constraints on identity representation.

    The findings suggest the need for more flexible and participatory digital storytelling environments that support multiplicity, ambiguity, and user-controlled identity representation.
