終焉間近な人の心理過程

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

1960 年代では終焉間近な患者にがんの告知をせず,家族に伝えるとする意見が趨勢であった。その後、Glaser&Strauss(1964)「死のアウエアネス理論」,キュブラ・ロス(1969)が、「死の受容過程」を提唱した。以後半世紀以上経過した現代において「死が間近な人の心理」に関する実証的調査に基づくモデルの提案はない。本研究では、「終末期とはどのような状態のときか」、日本人にとっての「死の過程の心理」について患者・看護師の双方より調査した。極めて死が近い時期の心理過程を明らかにすることができた。医療職者だけでなく自宅で看取り、看取られる人の心理的苦痛の理解の一助となった。
