Research summary
Toward the construction on the model for the psychosocial practice of the first and second person science on the basis of clinical narrative approach You will find a large number of dilemmas when you try to conduct study in the two areas: medical care and psychological clinic; and interpersonal support such as helping those with disabilities and their families. In practice, complicated factors often make it difficult to control the various factors required for study and to set up control groups. Detailed comparative study is ethically restrained as well. At this point, you find a way to make use of the viewpoint of narrative (tale; telling; story) in the practical study. Each story is made at each worksite between the concerned parties: medical professionals and patients or their families at hospitals; staff and users at facilities; and therapists and clients in psychological therapy. The professional would set up a hypothesis instantly at an interview with the concerned party to make a story about judgment and outlook of the party's condition. The party would also see the professional with his or her own story based on a hypothesis that this incident or that incident may have caused his or her diseases, disabilities or psychological disorders. The both stories would meet each other at the worksite. This research extracts the rich output at the intersection area, and tries to find how to present a vivid description from the viewpoint of clinical narrative approach. We build personal science, which is a method and a theory to be the basis of interpersonal support. Then, we build models of psychological and social practices to suit the concerned party's way of living and life, as experiences of coming through the diseases and disabilities. Clinical narrative approach focuses on the following points: ・The concerned party-oriented approach. This focuses on reality of individual experiences. ・The goals are to respect and recover the concerned party's agency. ・Narrative is a form or framework to share experiences with others. ・Problems or symptoms should not be isolated from the context (semantic field) of way of living and society. ・The professional himself/herself is also tested. ・The professional participates in the process of formalizing the knowledge acquired from the experience by the concerned party, suspending the action of organizing the party's conditions on his or her own map. ・Attention is focused on transition from told stories to lived story. At the present moment, his or her own function that connects the past is supported. This research has been jointly conducted, financed by subsidy, mainly grants-in-aid for scientific research. What is underway is fundamental study (A) "Building and making public clinical story theory by life history method" (H24-28) (represented by Masayoshi Morioka). This research has planned and held four international symposiums, and has conducted a series of interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary discussions. We describe life history in collaborating with those who can hardly describe their life courses for some reasons such as disasters, diseases and disabilities in the middle of their lives. People can actively structure their own reality and make it meaningful. In clinical practices, narrative approach is the support to ease the strong emotional experiences of the concerned parties and to watch the reality of individual experiences until the meanings are fixed for events of diseases and disabilities. These practices suggest publicness. Some examples of broad collaboration of this research include: presentation at "Narrative from society: listening to experiences of war and atomic bombs and passing them on to the younger generations" (the eighth convention of Japanese Association of Qualitative Psychology at Yasuda Women's University on November 27, 2011); and interviews on experiences on the battle in Okinawa. These examples are reported on "Clinical Narrative Approach - Collaboration Reports 1－3" (ISSN2188-5834).
