針對漸行漸遠的兩岸關係，對岸近年推出一系列的惠台、交流政策，試 圖強化兩岸民間互動，促進雙方和平統一。此類政策核心環節之一是兩岸的 青年交流，自2004 年以降，邀訪活動即不斷擴大規模，參與頗為熱絡，但 此類政策能否發揮部分人士憂慮的政治影響，目前似未見系統的實證研究。 有鑒於此，作者乃透過深度訪談，搭配以問卷分析，探討此類交流接觸經 驗，能否轉變參與者的政治認知及政治認同。根據作者研究發現，參與此類 活動後，台灣青年既有的刻板印象，產生相當顯著的變化，但若觸及深層的 身分認同及統獨立場時，交流互動並無法發揮撼動的力量。

To break the stalemate of today’s cross-Strait relations, China has formulated a series of policies recently to promote cross-Strait exchanges and in the end to create pro-unification interests in Taiwan society. One of the key elements of these policies is hosting student teams from Taiwan for a short visit to China. Since the year 2004, these student teams have attracted thousands of Taiwan college students each year and through these teams, the students had first-hand contacts with the Mainland Chinese society. But to what extent might these contacts change the students’ perception of China and modify their identity over nationality issue? According to our interviews and questionnaires, we find that through these contacts, the images of Mainland China and CCP have been significantly improved while little changes have been made regarding these students’ political identity.
