本文採用2012年與2018年兩波公民意識調查資料，觀察比較臺灣民眾公民意識與政治參與之持續和變遷。本文發現：臺灣在由民主鞏固期進入民主深化期的過程中，民眾的投票參與、衝突參與顯著下降，意見表達則有所提升。在兩個年度中，不論是對於常規性（conventional）政治參與或非常規性（unconventional）政治參與，公民意識均為影響臺灣民眾政治參與之重要變數，公民意識與兩類政治參與存在正向連結。值得注意的是，公民意識在2012與2018年呈現之影響持續且一致，此研究發現或有助拓展臺灣政治參與之現有解釋，以及追蹤觀察臺灣民主政治之發展。   

Based on two citizenship survey datasets in 2012 and 2018, this paper mainly focuses on the continuity and change of citizenship and political participation among Taiwan’s public. This paper found that electoral participation and participatory conflict among Taiwan’s public declined to some extent, but opinion expression increased slightly from 2012 to 2018. This paper also found that citizenship has a significant positive impact on both conventional political participation and unconventional political  participation. Additionally, the positive linkage between citizenship and political participation was continuous and consistent. Our findings contribute by expanding existing explanations of political participation and understand democratic development in Taiwan.
