原発事故以後、福島県民が抱く放射線健康不安には、報道や情報が関連していると考え、県民2000人に対し、健康不安の程度、信用する情報源、利用するメディアについて質問紙調査を行った。健康不安の程度を目的変数、信用する情報源と利用するメディアを説明変数とした重回帰分析の結果、NGO等を信用する群、ネット・サイトを利用する群の不安が有意に高く、政府省庁、自治体を信用する群、地元民放テレビを利用する群は、不安が有意に低かった。情報源やメディアの違いによる、不安の程度の差が明らかになった。また、ヘルスリテラシー得点上位群の不安が有意に低く、放射線不安を減らす上での、ヘルスリテラシーの有効性が示唆された。

Introduction: Large amounts of radioactive materials were leaked into the environment from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) of the Tokyo Electric Power Company damaged by the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and accompanying tsunami. Increased health impairment risks due to the leaked radioactive materials are of concern over a long period of time and over a wide geographical area. From the results of epidemiologic studies conducted after the Chernobyl accident, the health risks are not anticipated to be very marked. The purpose of the present study is to examine (i) the elevated health risks as viewed by the general population, (ii) tolerance to the risks that the general population suffer from their viewpoint, and (iii) the overall picture as seen by researchers and experts in specialized areas of study after the accident. Method: Information was obtained from articles in print and on the Internet and by interviewing a psychologist and tens of employees of several corporations. Results and Discussion: Epidemiologic studies conducted after the severe accident of the nuclear power plant in Chernobyl revealed an elevated risk of thyroid cancer in children due to 131I while elevated risks due to radioactive materials other than 131I were not detected. The amount of radioactive materials leaked into the environment from the FDNPP was less than that in Chernobyl. Therefore, it is possible to estimate that health impairment risks due to the leaked radioactive materials from the FDNPP are low. However, it is impossible to conclude a zero risk. It is likely that the general population does not fully understand the health impairment risks due to the leaked radioactive materials from the FDNPP. Although no increased incidences of diseases other than thyroid cancer of children were scientifically shown en masse from studies in Chernobyl, individual risks and results in the future caused by the severe accident of FDNPP cannot be denied. Much of the general population is apt to demand the security of a zero risk from human-generated disasters such as the severe accident of FDNPP. Many are very intolerant of the health impairment risks factors and wish to avoid any risk altogether. The viewpoint of the general population differs considerably from that of epidemiologists and other research experts. Researchers and experts are often well versed in their own specialized areas but ignorant of other areas. Thus, it is difficult to grasp the complete view of an event under consideration. This so-called ‘takotsubo’ situation is dangerous in human society. Researchers and experts must make effort to understand areas other than their own specialized areas. Scientific researchers usually possess a great deal of conviction from the results of their own studies. They are apt to ignore criticism of their study results from individuals working in other research areas even when the results of their studies are inadequate. When the conditions of their studies are changed somewhat and insufficient information is obtained, the results may not be accurate. Researchers and experts should take full cognizance of this possibility, view with strong skepticism about the results of studies even in their own areas, and listen with humility to criticisms from those working in fields of discipline other than their own. Conclusions: It should be fully recognized that the viewpoint of the general population is considerably different from that of researchers and experts regarding health risks due to the severe accident of FDNPP. Researchers and experts must make effort to understand the opinions of those working in areas other than their own in order to grasp a true and complete view of an event under consideration.

1984年6月-7月にかけて, 東京都杉並区小学校の学童(766名)を対象に, ATS-DLD質問票(環境庁版)を用いて呼吸器症状および居住環境調査を実施した.同時にその学童にRAST法によるスギIgE値の測定を実施した.学童のアレルギー歴, 乳児期の栄養および居住環境(住宅構造, ペットの飼育状況)とスギIgE陽性率との関係を検討した.その結果下記のようであった.1.アレルギー陽性群のスギIgE陽性率は非アレルギー群のそれに比べ有意に高かった.2.通気性の良い木造住宅のスギIgE陽性率に比べ, 密閉性の高い鉄筋・鉄骨住宅および1・2階のそれは有意に高かった.3.乳児期の栄養およびペット飼育状況別にスギIgE陽性率をみると, 小鳥飼育・人工栄養群が非室内飼育・母乳栄養+混合栄養および非室内飼育・人工栄養群に比べ有意に高かった.

Introduction: Over the past several years, differences and/or inequality within Japanese society have been pointed out from various study areas. The actual status of variations in differences and/or inequality in the economy and variations in health indicators was determined objectively from statistics collected in Japan. We forecast the differences and/or inequality in the economy and mortality rate in the future, and discuss countermeasures for health impairment due to economic inequality as a social epidemiologic study. Materials and methods: Gini coefficients, which show economic inequality, and mortality rateswere collected from statistical data published in Japan. An article in which the relationship between economic inequality and difference in health was noted and others were cited.Results: The Gini coefficients for inequality in income under 35 years of age and in consumptionof the thirties and the forties increased recently in Japan. Mortality rate for all causes ofmales aged 30-34 years increased and that for suicide increased notably except aged people in recent years. Discussion: The Gini coefficient increased in adults recently in Japan. The reason for this isbecause enterprises reduced the numbers of regular employees, whose salaries are higher, and increased the numbers of non-regular employees such as part-time and dispatched workers, whosesalaries are lower, in order to decrease labour cost after the bubble economy collapsed in 1990.Age-adjusted mortality rate for all causes and mortality rates for all causes by age decreased consistently in Japan after World War II. Recently, however, the mortality rate for all causes in males aged 30-34 years has increased. This indicates that socialization of anti-risk countermeasures are not sufficient in Japanese society in a recession, demonstrating the existence of a defective social system and/or of notable problems in the management of social systems in Japan. It should be recognized that if the situation is neglected and effective countermeasures are not taken, social chaos may result. Thus effective policies introducing sufficient anti-risk countermeasures are necessary to reduce the mortality rate.
