Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

厚生労働省内に設置された「精神保健福祉士の養成の在り方等に関する検討会」は、最終とりまとめで、「精神保健及び精神障害者の福祉を取り巻く環境の変化による業務の内容の変化に適応できる人材を養成する観点から、おおむね共通して求められる標準的な能力等を整理したキャリアラダーが必要」と指摘した。本研究では、調査研究に基づき、「精神保健福祉士のキャリアラダー」を活用して資質向上を図るツールを開発した。これは社会的要請に応える研究成果であり、学術的にも社会的にも意義は大きい。
