Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed to develop a prenatal intervention program focused on the formation of paternal identity for adapting to the paternal role. The intervention program allowed participants to create a postpartum schedule using a uniquely developed paternity portfolio. Pre and postintervention effects were evaluated using a convergent design of mixed methods. This intervention effect was quantitatively evaluated between the two groups. To qualitatively examine the intervention's effects, participants were interviewed for effective prenatal education, and their paternal role behaviors were identified by the intervention. There were 10 pairs in the intervention group and 31 pairs in the control group. Intergroup comparison of evaluation data showed no significant difference. However, qualitative results clarified the effective nursing intervention, confirming the achievement of intervention goals by all participants.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

父親がその家族に合わせた役割行動を実践できるよう、児の出生前に父親としての自己像を形成することに焦点を当てた看護介入プログラムを開発し、介入群10組に実施、対照群31組と評価データを比較した。その結果、有意差は認められなかったが、質的結果から効果的な看護介入が明らかとなり、全員の介入目標の達成を確認した。本結果が臨床応用されることで父親の役割獲得課題が達成され、第1子出生後に父親が円滑に役割行動をとれるようになると考え意義深い研究であると考える。
