Outline of Final Research Achievements

Since CODA has a role as an interpreter for parents from early childhood and continues to recognize defending parents, we assumed the role reversal relationship between parents and children and examined its structure.
As a result, it was found that CODA had ambiguous factors, “aggressiveness” and “inevitability” when he or she supported parents, and parents had a factor to be supported by CODA. Furthermore, from the analysis of factors related to each factor, the tendency of role inversion relationship was clarified. And at the same time, it was permitted to examine the importance of parent-child conversation and necessity of reducing frequent interpretation.
