Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

特別支援学校に在籍する児童生徒のスクールカウンセリング分野のニーズには，「精神疾患(精神医学)」「身体疾患(小児保健学)」「人間関係・親子問題(臨床心理学)」「障害理解(特別支援教育)」「不登校・非行(教育臨床学)」「貧困(児童福祉学)」など今日的な教育問題が散在しており，こうした課題に対して多分野・複合的な観点から対応する必要がある．そして，教育実践的なアプローチによる検証・検討(特に，評価・検証を医療・学校現場の専門家を入れて実施する)を展開することで学際的な意義は高いものと考える．
