危機潛伏在我們生活週遭，不論是天災或人隨時隨地都可能發生，並對生命財產或信心造成重大的衝擊，政府組織和企業都免不了遭受危機的挑戰。就政府而言，從九二一大地震、八掌溪事件、土石流災變、納莉風災均一再考驗著政府的危機應變能力。

本研究旨於利用大規模的問卷調查，以中央政府機關公關業務負責人為調查對象，檢視目前我國中央政府機關之危機溝通管理概況，以及探討中央政府組織特性與危機預準備階段以及危機回應階段之溝通管理策略間有何關聯性存在。是故本研究逐以下述各項問題進行探討：

一、瞭解目前我國中央政府機關在危機前預防與準備階段的危機溝通管理概況？
二、瞭解目前我國中央政府機關在危機回應時的危機溝通管理概況？
三、探究中央政府機關各組織之不同組織特性與危機溝通管理手段的關聯性為何？

本研究以社會調查法進行研究，針對我國不同中央政府組織的公共關係業務負責人進行調查訪問，發現以下結論：


一、在危機溝通的預防準備階段中，政府機關的議題管理概況：我國中央政府機關負責公關業務的部門，大多負有執行議題偵測任務的功能，其中又有高達近八成比例的有專人負責蒐集與組織相關的議題，顯見我國中央政府機關相當重視議題偵測的任務執行。

二、在危機溝通的預防準備階段中，政府機關的關係管理概況：我國中央政府機關公關業務負責人，多能自我肯定與利益關係人間之良好關係，達一定程度之水準。

三、危機回應階段政府機關各項溝通機制的設立概況：
(一) 、中央政府機關過去十年內，正逐漸體認危機管理政策對組織的重要性，使得目前政府機關設有危機管理政策比例已提昇至近六成。
(二) 、我國中央政府機關對危機管理小組的機制設立，要比書面或成文的危機管理政策設立更為普遍，且不但多認同以團隊導向共同預防或面對可能遭逢的危機事件，也重視公關從業人員在政府機關危機管理運作過程的參與性。
(三) 、中央政府機關組織中普遍設有危機管理小組運作機制的政府機關，
並重視危機溝通管理之運作，如設立危機的管理中心、掌握有最新媒體名單、普遍設立發言人等。

四、危機回應階段政府機關形象修復策略訊息的傳遞形式概況：在政府機關形象修復策略訊息傳遞形式之「易得性」、「迅速性」與「一致性」三方面，都達到一定水準，其中又以「迅速性」表現又最為優異。

五、危機回應階段政府機關公關人員自主性概況：整體而言，中央政府機關公關業務負責人在此階段溝通自主性尚待提升，但與法務人員的溝通方面，在該危機事件過程中，並無造成衝突而是他們的合作伙伴。

六、組織特性與危機溝通管理關聯性

（一）、組織特性與議題管理關連性：該研究結果顯示組織特性會影響組織的議題管理結果。
（二）、組織特性與關係管理關連性：有獨立公關部門的政府機關，與其最重視利益關人間所維持的關係效果，比無獨立公關部門政府機關表現較佳。
（三）、組織特性與危機溝通管理關連性：通過預算越多、員工人數愈多以及設有獨立公關部門的中央政府機關，設有危機管理政策的比例較高；通過預算愈多的中央政府機關，有愈高比例設立危機管理小組機制；有計畫執行公關運作與公營行政機關的政府機關，有愈高比例能掌握最新媒體名單；公營行政機關在組織中設有危機通訊中心溝通機制的比例，明顯高於公營事業機關；組織成立歷史越久的政府機關，有愈高比例有媒體發言人；有獨立公關部門的政府機關，有較高比例的媒體發言人曾受過媒體應對訓練。
（四）、組織特性與形象修復策略訊息傳遞形式關連性：組織規模與公關專業有助於提昇組織在形象修復策略訊息傳遞形式上的表現。

Crises lurk around our daily life. Disasters happen any time and they always make a huge impact on the life, property or people’s confidence whether the crises are natural or man-made. However, both government and enterprise can not get rid of the challenge of the crisis. As far as the government organization is concerned, each of the disasters challenges the ability of facing crisis towards the authority concerns such as the 921 earthquake, the Bajhang River event, the debris flow disaster and the Typhoon Nari.

This research wants to examine the current circumstance of the crisis management in the central public sector by using a large amount of the questionnaires which target the people who are in charge of the public relationship service. This research also wants to discuss the relationship between the organization characteristics of the central public sector and the strategies of the communication management in the crisis response stage. Hence, this research probes into these topics by the following items:

1. To realize the circumstance of the prevention before the crisis and the preparation stage of the crisis communication management in the central public sector.
2. To realize the circumstance of the crisis response from the crisis communication management in the central public sector.
3. To research the relationship of the organization characteristics and the crisis communication management method that differentiates from the different central public sector.

This research proceeds with the methodology of social survey and have the investigation towards the different persons in charge of the public relationship service in the varied central public sectors. Some conclusions are conducted such as below:

a. Within the past ten years, the central public sector has been aware of the importance of the crisis management policy by degree and it makes the percentage of setting crisis management police raised up to 60 %.
b. It is more popular to build up the crisis management team than setting the article of the crisis management policy. Moreover, most of them agree to prevent or to be against the crisis event by using a team and emphasize on the participation of the public relationship service in charge.
c. The government office, e.g. crisis management center, that sets up the mechanism of the crisis management team and emphasizes on the operation of the crisis communication management would have the latest media list in hand and set up a spokesperson in general.
4. The image restoration strategies in the crisis response stage
The circumstance of the message delivering form: the image restoration strategies reach a considerably plane from the aspect of the availability, the quickness and the consistency for the government office. Furthermore, the quickness is the most distinguished one.
5. The communication autonomy of the people who are in charge of the government public relationship in the crisis response stage: In general, the communication autonomy for the people who are in charge of the government public relationship needs to be improved. But, there are no communication conflicts with the law staff during the crisis event. On the contrary, they become a team to work together.
