Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究では，これまでに実施してきた発達上の課題・困難を有する少年院在院者に対する面接法調査（少年院3施設，のべ180名，2016年～2019年実施・現在も継続中）をもとに，少年院在院者の支援ニーズと発達支援の視点から，「発達上の課題を有する在院者に対する処遇プログラム実施ガイドライン」の意義・有効性および改善課題を明らかにした。少年の更生・育て直しに向けた支援を行う少年院において，発達支援の観点から処遇のガイドラインが示されたことは大きな意味をもつ。さらに学校教育の導入、現代に適合する基礎的環境整備や合理的配慮に基づく発達支援の提供等が、当面する緊要な改善課題である。
