[ 摘要 ]

筆者對泰雅族人的居住文化分為聚落及家屋兩個層面，透過聚落及家屋的空間構成與居住行為等項目來探討其居住文化及變遷。對於舊有居住文化係藉由文獻資料及訪談進行歸納，另外，透過長時期的田野調查以了解部落現況。論文共分為五個章節，首先界定研究目的及方法，再依序探討聚落的構成、家屋空間組織及居住行為的變遷過程，最後總述泰雅族居住文化的變遷及各時期的特徵，並討論本研究的代表性及局限所在，做為後續研究參考的依據。在聚落層次方面。以往泰雅族係以部落為基本單位，大致由住宅群、耕地、獵場和棄檅地所構成。目前聚落擴展至以村為單位較為合適，而可以將其分為村、部落、家屋等三個空間層次。筆者以生活空間的擴大、土地私有化現象說明居民對於聚落空間使用與認知的變化。生活空間的擴大，使部落與外界緊密的結合，隨著外界潮流調整自己。土地的私有化加強了家庭的財產觀念，模糊了原有獵場、林地等部落資源的所有權。在家屋層次方面。依住屋空間組織的變化，初略分為單室空間、初期複室空間和近期複室空間等三期。在由單室走向複室的過程中，火爐的位置係重要的指標，其不僅為日常生活的轉變，也為宗教空間的轉移。而家屋的變化與外在環境及經濟結構有著密切的關係。另外，泰雅人能接受各種建造技術，將其運用在合適之處，而沒有特別的禁忌。也令泰雅族建築展現出多樣的建築文化。
