Academic Interests

A self-efficacy evaluation index for elderly people participating in preventive care programs.
The development of a supporting activity model for public health nurses:
Public health nurses working in communities typically try to develop preventive care systems for the elderly. I am currently developing a supporting activity model for such nurses so that they can make sense of what they are doing and be sufficiently empowered to continue working in their respective fields.
