| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examined the quality of life in the Meiji, Taisho, and Prewar Showa eras based on maternal and fetal mortality rates. First, I demonstrated that maternal and fetal mortality rates continuously declined between the late Meiji era and the Prewar Showa era. I then hypothesized that this decline was attributable to improvements not in maternal healthcare but in overall maternal health-related conditions. Specifically, during this period, women became increasingly healthy, rendering them better able to survive the birthing process. I concluded that the above hypothesis was valid based on an analysis of data on the physical size of children and adults.
