行動研究欲探討高關懷學生參與關懷流浪犬團體方案，對其生命態度的影響。研究目的包括：1.針對國中高關懷學生設計一套關懷流浪犬團體方案；2.透過生命態度量表進行前後測、觀察紀錄與訪談，評估本研究設計之此關懷流浪犬團體方案，對於國中高關懷學生在生命態度上的改變，和從中的學習；3.以行動研究的方式，提出關懷流浪犬團體方案，未來運用在高關懷學生上的設計，與實踐之注意事項。
研究方法以行動研究的方式，研究者透過關懷流浪犬團體方案，在教學過程中觀察高關懷學生，並藉由訪談、研究者省思等方式蒐集資料，找出課程實施困境進行修正改進，以設計最佳團體進行模式，然後探討藉由參加此團體，對高關懷學生的生命態度產生的影響。以生命態度量表進行前測，融入生命態度的六個架構：「生命理想」、「生命自主」、「愛與關懷」、「存在感」、「生命的經驗」、「死亡的態度」在設計關懷流浪犬團體方案中，共進行十一次的團體，一周一次，一次兩堂課。
研究之參與成員為八位的高關懷學生，活動場地以學校鄰近的動物收容所為主。從描述性統計看測驗前後測結果，高關懷學生在團體中其生命態度是有被影響，各向度皆有些許正向的成長。在訪談的質性分析結果上，本研究團體成員在生命態度上皆有正向的體驗與收穫，本研究的建議有三方向，分別從團體的設計、團體的進行及未來研究，提供未來研究者可行的建議。
