Outline of Final Research Achievements	This study was conducted to clarify the actual conditions of crime victims (including family members and bereaved family members) in terms of the impact of victimization and the use of systems and support, and to explore how to provide better support from a social work perspective, based on the theme of recovery from victimization. Based on the survey results, the following recommendations were made. (1) It should be noted that victims of crimes with a high degree of physical invasiveness are more vulnerable due to the strong psychological impact, (2) a system should be established to provide support from support organizations at an early stage after victimization, (3) the method of hearing and explanation should be improved in consideration of victims' emotional aspects in judicial procedures, (4) the enhancement of services by the local government should be promoted, and (5) supporters need to be sensitive to the positive psychological transformation experience after victimization.
Free Research Field	社会福祉学
Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	現在わが国の犯罪被害者に対する支援策は、第4次犯罪被害者等基本計画が施行され支援体制の充実・強化が求められている。今まで被害者に関する研究は、法学的観点や精神医学的観点からのものが主流だったが、本研究は個人と社会環境の接点に介入する社会福祉的視点から、被害当事者を対象とした量的・質的調査を実施し、よりよい支援のあり方について実証研究に基づく新たな知見を提示した。量的・質的調査の分析結果と具体的提言はネット上に公開し、広くアクセスできる。報告書も作成し、被害者支援に携わる全国の関係機関に周知し活用されている。被害者支援の拡充は安全・安心な社会の構築に繋がり本研究成果はその一助となるものである。
