This feminist study explores professional women’s everyday experiences of gender in the workplace in Taiwan. As previous research indicates, compared to women in other East Asian economies, such as those of Japan and Korea, women in Taiwan have a more consistent career trajectory. In addition, the local women’s movement and activism has brought Taiwan a long way in improving women’s employment rights in the workplace. However, a substantial body of literature also shows that it is too soon to claim that gender inequality has been banished from the workplace. Applying ethnomethodological and sy

This thesis seeks to explore everyday aspects of time. Traditionally, the psychological study of time has been defined as the processes by which a person adapts to and represents temporal properties in order to synchronise external events. On the other hand, a good understanding of time is also vital when it comes to occupational and social organisation. How should time be considered across psychology remains an open question. While time perception is an established field in cognitive psychology, previous research has often focussed on either the perception of very short time intervals (millis

Much of the previous research on timing has used very short duration tasks, in the range of seconds.
