Outline of Final Research Achievements	This study underwent a major review of research methods due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the pandemic we continued to exchange information and advice on the implementation of the program by holding online meetings with the employment support office A when necessary, which assisted and cooperated in the study. As a result, the users were able to continue working without any decline in their health, physical fitness, or subjective view of health, etc. The employment support office A expressed its desire to continue to cooperate and collaborate with the researchers in program development in FY2023 and beyond, based on the results of the activities in the COVID-19 . It was very significant that the researchers were able to establish the value of the "self-efficacy promotion program" developed through their previous research and the need for its improvement even in such a unique environment where people are forced to restrict their behavior for a long period of time.
Free Research Field	看護　保健　社会教育
Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	精神障害者の退院後の地域生活の定着や就労を継続するための土台となる健康関連体力や主観的健康観（自己効力感等）を改善するための看護支援や研究の蓄積は不足しており、早急に解決すべき課題となっている。研究者らは、その課題解決に向けた実証研究に着手し自己効力感促進プログラムを開発し一部の施設で実用化した。本研究では、プログラムを改良し、継続性や心身への有効性を高めることが目的であった。しかしながらコロナ禍により、研究協力者の安全を最優先し当初の研究方法の見直し実施した。このことにより、本研究は2023年度以降は参加型アクションリサーチ手法を用いて、より当事者や現場のニーズに合ったプログラム開発を行う。
