Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was to conduct childcare consultations utilizing the Mothers’ Psychological Health Checksheet (hereafter, the checksheet) and evaluating the consultations. At the consultations, efforts were made to heighten child care happiness, and mothers were asked to participate in a questionnaire survey aimed at evaluating the consultations after the second consultation. Results were subjected to statistical analysis and qualitative inductive analysis. Changes in responses to questionnaire items after the consultations, compared to before, included a significant increase in appreciation toward the spouse and a significant decrease in mental and physical fatigue. Moreover, mothers felt satisfied with the consultations and their perceptions of self and child care. Challenges included the influence of the structure and expression of checksheet items, as well as the abilities of the consultants, on mothers.
