In order to describe the state of explanation, the participant observation of scene of explanation, subsequent interviews with the parents of the children, and with the physicians and nurses involved in the examinations or treatment.

Those are the gap between child's psychomotor abilities and health care professional's judgment on child's abilities the gap between child's reactions to treatment/examination and healthcare professional's responses, and the gap in understanding of the situation between child and health care professionals.
3. The roles of participating adult on treatment and/or examination of the children, there were three major roles taken among physicians, nurses and parents. One of three roles is to check child's response of treatment/examination. Second role is to explain to child about treatment/examination. Third role is to bring out child's Kakugo and maintain it.
4. Child's feeling after the treatment/examinations were categorized from obtained data into three types. Three types were "I kept my courage up," "I tried to keep my courage up, but…," "I am still keeping my courage up."
