| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Caring for elderly and individuals facing chronic and terminal stage is a challenge for family members. With an unprecedented aging society in Japan, it worsens the increase in care burden on family caregiver. The final goal of this study is to develop a scale which quantifies Japanese family caregiver’s QOL by merging Cohen’s QOLLTI-F and some concepts of high cultural value for the Japanese found in author’s previous study- Such concept as On, Enryo/meiwaku, Family decision making, praying to myriad gods and ancestors, and so on are included in the scale. While the scale is developing and awaiting further examinations, preliminary version of the scale was created through the process of in-depth evaluation and re-analysis of the data.
