Research Abstract |
I used 2 kinds of methods to obtain a result of analysis and research on experience of the ethical dilemmas' of care managers based on quantitative data and qualitative data. One method was that I distributed questionnaires to in-home care management entrepreneurs who lived in X-shi in Aichi-ken and I received effective answers from 35 people from 27 entrepreneurs out of 35 entrepreneurs (77.1 %).

In order to complement the analysis result of quantitative data, I exit-acted the concrete examples of 'ethical dilemmas' from open-end answers from the managers and analyzed them. From the result the relationship between the selection in the institutional and systematic context and care managers' subjective and normative judgment was able to be pointed out. Less
