Based on the investigation by Japanese edition of questions developed by C. Figley et al(1996,2002), I examined the Optimal Level Model of Compassion Fatigue that relates to Compassion Fatigue and the functioning as a care giver to children with some troubles.Inspected by the number of people with Compassion Fatigue and relations with other indexes, care givers and social workers were divided to main three parts, A, B, C type.Types A indicated low level on Compassion Fatigue mainly on area 1. Type B indicated middle level on Compassion Fatigue mainly on area 2,3,4. Type C indicated High level on Compassion Fatigue mainly on area 5. The burnout risk of Type C was higher than other groups.Furthermore, I examined differences in 5 groups, and High/Low groups on Compassion Fatigue.1) Significant difference between Compassion Fatigue High and Low was watched in three factors, Satisfactions with colleagues, with clients or children and Satisfaction in life except for Satisfaction to profession as a care giver.2) Compassion Fatigue became high related to burnout significantly. So it was suggested that Compassion Fatigue could predict burnout of a care giver or a social worker.About differences of support items for care givers in Low and High groups of Compassion Fatigue, many items of supports were high level in Low group of Compassion Fatigue. But some items had high score in the high Compassion Fatigue group.From these findings I considered the meaning of Optimal Level Model of Compassion Fatigue.Furthermore, I examined the relationship between Compassion Fatigue and Functioning (Professionalization as care givers and social workers) used FR behaviors questionnaires and Caregiving Behaviors on the stand points of Attachment theory.As a result, it was suggested that FR behaviors rose in relation to Compassion Fatigue in all four factors of FR behaviors.On the other hand, Caregiving Behaviors on the stand points of Attachment theory did not have the difference among all groups of Compassion Fatigue.Furthermore, I examined necessity of individual support and made each comment format for individual support as practice example of supports on the standpoint of Optimal Level Model of Compassion Fatigue.Four tasks based on these were shown last.1. Researches to make clear the characteristics of three types of Compassion Fatigue. 2. Necessity of construction of Functioning as a care giver. 3. Examination and working-out on support items for care givers or social workers, 4.Necessity of construction of study to think about support to a care giver or a social worker.
