Abstract

This paper aimed at (1)an ethnography of participant observation in Residential Home for Persons with Intellectual Disabilities, (2)a consideration of effects of categories which were created by analysis of fieldnotes on realization of residents' needs in the Residential Home which was the subject of this study, (3)a consideration of support plans which were satisfied with residents' living in Residential Home. As results of analysis of fieldnotes, 3 categories were created; "factors of interrupted realization of needs" (with 2 subcategories: 'influences of others' and 'physically deficient') , "supporting needs" ('direct support', 'indirect support') , and "adjustment by his/her own" ('coping with factors of interrupted realization of needs', 'ability to ask for support'). Two plans of support were considered from an analysis of relations between categories, namely, (a) weight "adjustment by his/her own" category from a viewpoint of empowerment, (b) weight "supporting needs" category from a viewpoint of respect for independence. Some concrete measures are mentioned which might constitute sufficient conditions of being satisfied with residents' living in a Residential Home.
