Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the comparison between Japan and UK mothers of infants, we found that more UK mothers smoked compared with Japanese mothers. We also found that mother's working hours tended to be associated with their smoking habits in both countries, but it did not reach statistical significance in UK. We also examined factors associated with spanking their children at 3.5 years old, confined with Japan, but among families including fathers as well as mothers. We found that working hours was not associated with spanking. Rather, staying at home and unstable work (part-time employment, self-employment, and domestic side jobs) were associated with the higher likelihood of spanking. Presence of siblings was associated with the higher likelihood of spanking but a three-generation household was a protective factor.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
日英比較では、乳児をもつ母親において労働時間と喫煙の関連について同様の傾向を認めることが明らかになり、共通した予防戦略を検討することが可能と考えられた。日本においては、2020年に子どもへの体罰を禁止する法律が施行された。体罰使用の要因が明らかになったことで、体罰予防の重要な公衆衛生戦略の一助となる可能性が示唆された。
