Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
我が国では母親の育児不安や不適切な育児行動である虐待に対して,その軽減に向けた様々な取組がなされている。 本研究では日常的に繰り返す必要のある育児行動に焦点を当て、自己決定理論の枠組みから,母親への育児支援モデルを検討し,基礎研究の知見の実践的応用を目指した。本研究において,客観的な視点から母親の育児行動を観る視点が整理されたことにより,保育士が実際の母親の育児行動やその背景となる基本的心理欲求を把握した上で支援方法を検討することに繋がることが考えられる。本研究成果は母親の育児不安や虐待の増加などの問題を解決する糸口になると考える。
