Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was to explore the effectiveness of clinical psychological community support activities after the Great East Japan Earthquake. Specifically, we had three aims: (a) to evaluate the effectiveness of psychoeducation for people in temporary housing, (b) to evaluate the effectiveness of continual community support activities, (c) to examine the support that is necessary two years after the disaster.
The results showed that the psychoeducation was effective in reducing stress, and the continual community support activities alleviate stress and restore vitality to the community. It has been estimated that latent fatigue and anxiety became obvious, and they were vulnerable to depressive mood after two years from the disaster. This could be the fact that differences occur in the degree of the life rebuilding. The supports to the whole was required immediately after the temporary housing occupancy, moreover, individual supports were needed after the lapse of time.
