抄録

According to the results of our former papers, this paper clarified the contents and teaching process for consumer education in relation to home economics education. An attempt was made for a tentative plan for consumer education. The results are as follows: 1. Contents for consumer education consist of four areas related to home life, economic society, consumer rights and protection, and decision-making covering all three areas. 2. Decision-making includes both self life-management and social participation. 3. Home economics education was not only the foundation for consumer education, but also overlapped partially with consumer education contents. 4. Teaching process of consumer education consists of three indispensable processes: understanding of the present circumstances and problems, learning of the basic knowledge for values and the dual focus of decision-making.
