In child care research, the problem of fatigue in mothers attending hospitalized children, has become an important subject requiring a concrete response. The purpose of this research was to verify "a stress model of mothers attending to the needs of hospitalized children" in reference to cognitive appraisal of stress and coping. This survey covered 128 mothers who tended to the needs of hospitalized children. The survey focussed on the following areas (a) fatigue and stress appraisal, (b) coping strategies regulating fatigue, and (c) an examination of the relations between various factors. The major findings were as follows: (1) The analysis revealed that three significant factors in maternal fatigue are mental, physical, and nervous/sensory. (2) "Intervention by others" derived from personal relations and "child care restrictions" related to childcare were major stress factors that caused maternal fatigue. (3) It was also found that "problem-focused function" contributed to reduction in mental and nervous/sensory fatigue. (4) The applicability of a "model of influences on stress in mothers attending to the needs of hospitalized children" was examined using the above results. In addition, approaches used by nurses to reduce maternal fatigue were also discussed.
