Abstract
In order to investigate the relationship between the satisfaction in homelife and the dietary life experiences, questionnair studies were performed for junior high school students who lived in Shiga or Osaka prefectur. Based on the hypothesistha the students who have good parents-child relationships have many good experience with their families with respect to their dietary life in early childhood and are satisfied in their home life, we established the path model. In the causal model, two variables, good experiences in dietary life with families and unpleasant memories at meal time in their early childhood, were used as the exogenous variables and six variables, times of eating alone, possession of mother's tastes, existence of communication with families at mealtime, experiences of your mind being hurt by families, respectable feeling for your parents, and fearfu feeling for your parents, were used as the endogenous variables, and the satisfaction in home life was used as the dependent variable. When we verified the path model, the coefficient of determination of the dependent variable, the satisfaction in home life, was. 650. Our path diagram proved that the good experiences in dietary life with theirfamilies from one's early childhood was strongly correlated with the satisfaction in home life of junior high school students through the good communication and reliance with their parents.
