Abstract

The purpose of this study is to clarify the structure of service needs and relational factors among carers of young children who attend a rehabilitation center for children with disabilities. This study is designed by self-reported questionnaire survey, targeted to the carers of 20 rehabilitation centers for children with disabilities. The questionnaire was distributed to 669 carers, and 415 replies were collected : the response rate was 62.3%. The result of factor analysis identified four factors such as "guidance and communicative support", "respite, home help and health care", "financial support" and "support for child care". Furthermore, categorical regression analysis revealed 4 points. The first was that there were obvious needs of "guidance and communicative support" in spite of children's conditions, second was that needs of "respite, home help and health care" had a high relationship with children's conditions, third, social support had a small impact on needs factors, and the last point was that economic status and "role captivity" of "perceptions of the caregiving role" had a significant impact on needs factors.
