Abstract
A part of the present investigation has already been reported in "Transactions of the Arckitectural Institule of Japan". In this report I continue my investigations concerning the S. B. (Spring Board) effect which I mentioned in my previons paper. The S. B. effect is the phenomena which relates to the actions of rural inhabitans in their making use of public facilites. The use of nearly simple and functional existing facilites in the inhabitants residential area encourages their use of public facilities with the same functional purpose which are distant, large and better equipped. In this paper, I wish to investigate this situation in greater detail. And, I wish to show that the S. B. effect not only is evident in the actions of the inhabitants but also in their desire for larger and better equipped public facilities. The desire for new and better facilities is intensified by the existence of near, simple, same functional farilities. On the other hand, this desire is not apparent without near simple functional facitities in the inhabitants residential areas.
