This study was conducted to investigate the seasonal differences on comfort of mattress by means of body movement. Three parameters, i.e., frequency of body movements per hr, maximum and mean rest period time, were used as an indicatoro of comfort. Samples tested were A, B and C, hardness of which was 25, 29 and 44°, respectively. The softest sample was gained from the sample of 25°. Experiments were carried out in both summer and winter, and the results were compared with the sensory evaluation of touching on each sample. The results were as follows: 1)On evaluation using the 3 parameters, sample B was the best quality, which was followed by samples C and A in both seasons. 2)On evaluation of touching, sample A was the most favorite mattress, which was followed by samples B and C in both seasons. 3)The evaluation using the 3 parameters did not agree with the evaluation of touching. It is desirable that the selection of mattress should be based on the scientific justification.

The following are the results of an investigation of personal networks of the elderly gathered from members of the Senior Citizen's Club in O^^^me City, Tokyo. (1) The frequencies of contacts with grown-up children living on their own, neighbors, close friends and relatives were surveyed. (2) The most frequent contacts were found with neighbors, followed by close friends, grown-up children living on their own and relatives. (3) Males without spouses show a tendency towards less frequent contact with children who live on their own and relatives, however, they have close relationship with neighbors. (4) Females have contacts with their close friends more often than males. Both males and females without spouses have more frequent contacts than people with spouses. (5) Among the people who make up personal networks of the elderly, excluding their own children, the most chosen by the aged were peer members of the Senior Citizen's Club, followed by neighbors, relatives, friends with same hobbies, siblings, school-maltes and friends from their place of work. (6) Most people seemed to be satisfied with their personal network. (Received November 29, 1990)

The swallowing characteristics evaluated by a sensory test and the physical characteristics of textural properties, flow behavior and dynamic viscoelasticity were compared between two types of common liquid foods. One of them had modified starch and the other had guar gum added as the commercial thickening agents. The hardness of each food was adjusted to a value similar to that of plain yoghurt. The apparent viscosity of the modified starch type was lower than that of the guar gum type at a shear rate of 19.15 s^<->. Yield stress and storage modulus of the modified starch type were lower than those of the guar gum type. The loss tangent of the modified starch type was larger than that of the guar gum type. The liquid foods of the modified starch type were thinner, easier to swallow and less remained in the mouth than those of the guar gum type. Multiple-regression analyses indicated that the swallowing characteristics largely depended on the thickness and on the storage modulus of dynamic viscoelasticity.

本稿は,運動機能に障害がある人の衣生活を明らかにすることを目的として,運動機能に障害がある人自身を対象に調査を行い,以下のような結論を得た.(1)今回の調査対象者は,86.4%が車イスを利用しており,脳性マヒの人が全体の51.5%を占めた.(2)衣服の着脱が一人でできる人は,全体の62.1%であったが,「難しいところだけ手伝ってもらう人もそのうちの半数みられた.(3)衣服の購入については,スーパーやデパートの利用が多く,介護用品の専門店やコーナーを利用している人はいなかった.約90%の人が一般の既製服を中心に衣生活を賄っており,既製服を「そのまま着ることが多い」人は63.6%であった.衣服を購入するときに,自分で店舗に行く人は60.6%みられ,衣服への関心の高さが伺われた.(4)調査対象者の衣生活に対する意識を測定し,因子分析した結果,5つの因子が抽出され「おしゃれ心」「自意識」「所有欲」「社会性」「自尊心」と命名した.年齢層と着脱の自立の状態別に,因子得点の平均値の差を分散分析により検定した結果,危険率5%で「所有欲」の因子に差がみられ,若年層は中高年層よりも「所有欲」が強いことが明らかとなった.一方,着脱の自立については,着脱の自立別に衣生活に対する意識の構造を比較したが,一人で着脱ができる人と介助を必要とする人に差は認められなかった.(5)「デザイン性重視」の人は,「着脱性重視」の人に比べ有意な差をもって「所有欲」と「自意識」および「おしゃれ心」の因子得点が高かった.以上より,障害がある人の衣生活に対する意識には,一人で着脱できるか要介助かといった着脱の自立の違いは,影響をおよぼさないことが明らかになった.障害がある人の衣服を考える際に自立の状態を重視し,着脱性だけを考慮することは,装いに対する好みや意欲を否定することになると懸念された.

Spinach was stored in the dark at 5,20 or 30℃ with or without polyethylene wrapping in order to investigate the changes in fine structure of chloroplasts of stored spinach leaves. Samples were cut out from the same site of mature leaves, and fixed by glutaraldehyde and osmium tetroxide. The specimens were embedded in Epok 812 and then examined by means of a light microscope and a transmission clectron microscope. Chlorophyll contents of the same samples were also measured. After storage for 3 days, degradation was observed in the fine structure of chloroplasts of both wrapped and un-wrapped spinach. This degradation process took place almost in the same manner, though the speed of degradation varied from sample to sample. During the first stage, starch granules disappeared from the chloroplasts, and during the second stage the chloroplasts were globular in shape, in which grana and thylakoids were deviatorily gathered on the inner side of the cells. During the third stage, grana began to unstac, thylakoids assumed a random arrangement, chloroplasts dropped into a large vacuole after the disruption of the tonoplast, and finally, when the chloroplasts were punctured, the contents dispersed into the vacuole. Degradation of the chloroplasts was enhanced by storing without wrapping at higher temperatures. The residual rate of chlorophyll was higher when stored with wrapping at lower temperatures. The degradation features in the fine structure of chloroplasts closely corresponded to the degradation degrees of freshness of stored spinach.

In this essay, I will explain dandyism represented in Oscar Wilde's comedies, examining the lines and photos of dandy characters and comparing three characters in his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray. Wilde says in his letter, 'Basil Hallward is what I think I am: Lord Henry what the world thinks to me: Dorian what I would like to be-in other ages, perhaps.' In his comedies, there are many dandies: they show 'narcissism,' 'revolt against the society and moral,' 'pursuit of modernism,' 'aesthetics of decadence' and 'voluntary spirit' Lord Darington in The Lady Windermere's Fan and Lord Illingworth in A Woman of No Importance are decadents who revolt against society. They resemble Lord Henry. Lord Goring in An Ideal Husband is narcissist but he saves his friend voluntarily. He is the same as Basil who is conscious about real life. Jack and Algernon in The Importance of Being Earnest pursue pleasure in an imaginary life which resembles the fantastic life of eternal beauty in Dorian. As a result, Wilde wants to show his dandyism to describe many types of dandies in his comedies. These dandies, narcissists, create fashion with perfect attire. The most important dandy attire are the necktie and the buttonhole. In those days, the necktie was necessary for any man of society. The buttonhole was made of natural flowers, and was changed two or three times during the evening. Because they are so fragile, they symbolized the dandyism of Wilde.

Up to the present time, there have not been many studies carried out to determine an effective method for systematical conditional setting for polka-dot patterns, because most previous studies have used commercial printed polka-dot patterns. Therefore, we prepared thirty samples with different patterns wherein two kinds of patterns(i.e., an oblong and a square)each with polka-dot diameters of 1.6, 1.4 and 0.8 cm were respectively combined with five different colors by means of CG(computer graphics). In addition, in these samples, area ratios of the polka-dots to the background area were consistently maintained at 1:7 for the rectangular pattern and at 1:5.8 for the square pattern. Characteristic values of these samples were obtained by means of optical measurements and a sensory evaluation to try to determine those factors, which controlled images expressed by the polka-dot patterns set in different conditions. The following results were objectively proved. 1.From the results of the SD method, a more significant distinction was found in the evaluation of color samples of different color values for each polka-dot size than in that of different dot sizes on each color sample. 2.From the results of the t-test, a more significant distinction was found in the evaluation of the two design patterns in the case of the polka-dot diameter of 1.6 cm. In addition, it was found that yellow and green had relatively profound effects on the arrangement of the polka-dots. 3.It was also proved by the method of paired comparison that the variation of polka-dot colors distinguished more remarkably differences in pattern images than their sizes did. 4.From the results of the method of paired comparison, for most of the evaluation items, values of evaluation in the case of oblong patterns were higher than those in the case of square patterns. 5.There was a correlation between visual evaluation and relative value and chrome on polka-dot patterns. It was found that the sensory test is quite an effective way to study polka-dot patterns.

The aim of this study is to clarify residential and psychological factors related to the Japanese students who tend to confine themselves in their own rooms. The questionnaire was answered by 268 students, 134 males and 134 females. The findings are as follows. Their tendency to withdraw to their rooms was not particularly strong, but some residential and psychological factors were ascertained to explain their withdrawal tendency. Two residential factors (density, number of equipment in a room) and two psychological ones (degree of self-identity, exclusive attitude) were identified to be related to the withdrawal by both sexes. Some differences, however, were found between male and female students. Furthermore, the female seemed more sensitive to the factors studied here. The mechanism of withdrawal must be further studied, but, in the meantime, the findings strongly suggest the necessity of empirical study on what their rooms mean to adolescents.

In 1997, the former Economic Planning Agency implemented the first official monetary evaluation of unpaid work. At that time, in Japan, wages were worked out on the basis of gender as well as age ; simply put, valuation amounts of unpaid worker varied by gender. In this study, the loss of income for women was impartially calculated. In other words, the unpaid wage differentials by gender were excluded when our trial calculation was made for women on the basis of the second report compiled by he former EPA in 1998. 0ur calculation yielded approximately 168,080 billion yen or 33.6% of GDP. The general comment price of unpaid work became 10.4% or 52 trillion yen higher than figure listed in the 1998 EPA report. The rate of women's valuation amount to the total naturally increased from 84.5% to 89.3%. Furthermore, our research uncovered the lopsidedness between men and women in terms of annual valuation amounts per capita, and clarified the content of actions involving unpaid work which was not specified in the EPA report. There is a need to recognize publicly that the unpaid work is just as worthy as the paid work, and some policy or social system should be immediately established to enable to choose and distribute unpaid work in our lifestyle irrespective of gender difference.
