Abstract
 In this paper a structure and the educational effect of the Yogo teacher’s health counseling activity, which was studied a few in the precedent work were clarified by using author’s practice case. Those cases are analyzed into a component of narrative approach corresponded based on author’s hypothesis that the Yogo teacher’s health counseling activity closely resembles a narrative approach as a sociological approach. For measurement of the educational effect, the questionnaire survey to the students who received the health counseling activity was done. The questionnaire originally designed by the author is composed of the five-grade evaluation system and the free description column. In result of the questionnaire, the mean value of the five-stage evaluation was 3.9, the appearance rate of the synergy effect was 55.5%, and that of the preventive effect was 33.3%. It turned out that the limitation of narrative approach is a low protective effect and the alternative story created by narrative approach is rewritten easily to the dominant story again when a student goes back from the school health office to his/her classroom.
