Nagata Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A clinical psychology lab that supports children and families from the perinatal period through infancy and early childhood.
AboutAbout the lab
Accompanying families as they grow into families.
The Nagata Lab conducts clinical practice and research on the process by which a child is conceived, is born, and grows through relationships with parents and others, focusing on the perinatal period through infancy and early childhood.
The lab deals with psychological problems surrounding pregnancy and childbirth, babies born with some kind of risk such as low birth weight, and very early intervention for children with developmental disorders.
Working with specialists from other professions at partner organizations, the lab also studies support for relationships between families and children who are hard to raise or hard to connect with, and psychological support for caregivers who struggle in their relationships with their children, such as in cases of abuse.
Before joining the university, Professor Masako Nagata worked in the pediatrics department of a general hospital, where she was involved in mental care for families and support for parent-child relationships in obstetrics and the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).

Support for Families Through Pregnancy, Childbirth, and Child-Rearing
The lab examines the support needed for families to grow as families and for children to grow through their relationships, as well as the psychosocial factors that influence this, across pregnancy, childbirth, and child-rearing. Prof. Nagata has also been a core member of the Asia Project of the Center for Research and Practice on Developmental Support, helping build support systems for children with developmental disorders in Mongolia, Vietnam, and elsewhere.
Clinical Psychology in Partnership with Community Support Organizations
The lab is involved in clinical psychology from infancy through adolescence, continuing joint research and work as supervisors (SV) at community support organizations such as pediatric care settings, child-rearing support centers, daycare centers, and infant homes. It aims to make proposals and conduct verification on how to develop places where parents and children grow and how support should be provided.
