Early adaptation of the children in Japanese Returnees' family from China --a Five-year Follow-up--

对16个日本海归家庭的17名子女进行了5年的随访。他们于1988年7月至1989年7月随父母从中国来到日本。调查人员对儿童及其家庭成员进行半构式访谈，并在儿童初到日本、初到日本1年后、初到日本3年后、初到日本5年后用HTP测试进行心理评估。在为期一年的随访研究中，17人中有6人在适应日本社会方面出现了一些问题。父母支持的缺失或过多、中日两国生活方式的冲突以及过度适应是造成这些问题的主要原因。经过5年的随访，6例患者均适应了日本的生活方式。另1例从移民第4年开始出现适应不良综合征。他一直呆在自己的房间里，不仅受到学校的责骂，也受到家人的责骂。他拒绝见我们，所以我们采访了他的父母。对这个男孩的精神或心理评估仍在进行中。在3年的随访中，这17个孩子都能说一口流利的日语，在学校的表现也相当不错。，但汉语能力迅速下降。另一方面，他们的父母在移民后不久就放弃了日语学习，在日本的小华人社区找到了自己的道路。这几代人之间沟通的困难一直在增加。经过5年的随访，16对父母中有5对（1对为日本孤儿，1对为中国孤儿）出现了严重的婚姻问题。他们在移民动机和对日本社会的期望上存在很大的差异。一旦他们在适应日本社会时遇到困难，差异就会急剧扩大。这些婚姻问题应该是他们的孩子进一步适应日本的另一个风险因素。少

17 children of 16 Japanese Returnees' families from China had been followed up for 5 years. They came to Japan from China with their parents from July 1988 to July 1989. One of their parents was a Japanese orphan who left in mainland China after the World War Second.The investigators make an semi-costructed interview to the children and their family members, and made a psychological assessment with HTP test just after their arrival to Japan, 1 year after, 3 years after, and 5 years after their arrival.6 of the 17 showed some kind of problems in their adaptation to Japanese Society at the 1-year-follow-up study. Impairment of or too much parental support, conflicts between the life styles of China and Japan, and over adaptation were main reasons of their problems. All of these 6 cases adapted themselves to Japanese Way of Life by the 5-year-follow-up. However, the other one case showed mal adjustment syndrome from 4th year after his immigration. He has been staying in his room and withd … More rowed from not only his school but also his family members. He refused to meet us so we made an interview with his parents. Psychiatric or psychological assessments of this boy still remain.All of the 17 children could speak good Japanese by the time of 3-year-follow-up and were doing rather well in their schools., but their ability of Chinese language decreasing rapidly. On the other hand, many of their parents gave up studying Japanese soon after their immigration and found their way in small Chinese community in Japan. The difficulty of communication between these generations has been increasing.By the time of 5-year-follow-up, 5 of the 16 parents (one was Japanese orphan and the other was Chinese) showed severe marital problems. There were big differences between them in the motivation of immigration and in the expectation to Japanese society. Once they face to some difficulties in adaptation to Japanese society, the differences expand terribly. These marital problems should be another risk factor of their children's farther adaptation to Japan. Less
