JOURNAL FREE ACCESSWith the rapid aging of the population in our society, the participation of older people in community activities has been an issue of general concern. The purpose of this study is to find out factors determining the participation of retired teachers to community activities and to clarify the relationship between their participation in community activities and the characteristics as a teacher. A mail survey on the community activities was conducted in March 1993 to retired teachers of elementary and junior-high school in Iwate, Niigata, Kanagawa, Aichi, Hyogo, and Fukuoka Prefectures, asking the number and types of community activities they participated in and the characteristics as school teachers.
The major findings are as follows :
1) Retired teachers of elementary school were more positively participated in community activities compared with those of junior-high school.
2) Those who used to occupy administrative posts were more positively participated in community activities compared with those who used to be rank and file teachers.
3) Those who were called and recognized as “a teacher” even after their retirement were positively participated in community activities.
4) Those who lived in smaller cities were more positively participated in community activities.View full abstractDownload PDF (1762K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn this paper, the amounts of supply per capita of energy, three major nutrients, calcium and iron from net foods in Japan were calculated every 5 years between 1965 and 1975, and every year thereafter until 1987 mainly on the basis of the Food Balance Sheets published yearly by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fishery. Although the supply values of energy and three major nutrients have been described every year in the Food Balance Sheets, we recalculated them since slightly different procedure was employed in this paper. These supply values were compared with the intake values reported every year in the National Nutrition Survey by Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare and the corresponding values in the Recommended Daily Nutrient Allowance (RDA). The results showed : 1) The supply of energy and the three major nutrients was in excess compared with the intake every year, which supported the general recognition that foods are saturated both in quantity and quality. 2) However, the supply of calcium and iron was not always sufficient, being smaller than the intake in many years examined. 3) Particularly, the supply of calcium was constantly smaller than RDA. 4) The additional supply from non-pure foods such as fortified ones did not justify the calcium supply.View full abstractDownload PDF (1438K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn this paper, the amounts of supply per capita of vitamins A, B1, B2 and C from net foods in Japan were calculated every 5 years between 1965 and 1975, and every year thereafter until 1987 mainly on the basis of the Food Balance Sheets published yearly by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fishery. The values were compared with the intake values reported every year in the National Nutrition Survey by Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare and the correspond-ing values in the Recommended Daily Nutrient Allowance (RDA). The results showed : 1) The supply of vitamins A, B1, and C was smaller than the intake in several years examined. 2) The supply and intake values of all the vitamins satisfied RDA. However, the supply of vitamins A, B2, and C was not sufficient, when the loss during preservation and cooking is taken into consideration. 3) The additional supply from non-pure foods such as fortified ones seemed considerably high in vitamins A and B1.
The present study suggested that substantial improvement in food supply should be made in order to guarantee sufficient nutrient intake of minor nutrients for the nation.View full abstractDownload PDF (1016K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIwashi-nukazuke, salted sardine cured in rice bran, is one of the traditional fish products of Japan and a study was carried out to investigate the changes in texture of sardine meat during curing. The firmness of the fish meat, as measured by a texturometer, decreased gradually, and the fragility, as measured by a fragility test devised by us, increased during curing. The physical changes that were monitored during curing by a sensory evaluation coincided with those by the objective tests. SDS-PAGE patterns for the fish meat proteins indicated that the myosin heavy chain of sardine muscle was decomposed into fragments of smaller molecular size. This protein decomposition seems to have been caused by the action of enzymes in the rice bran (nuka) and in the malt (koji). The changes in meat texture during curing thus seem to be caused by the decomposition of fish meat proteins.View full abstractDownload PDF (1716K) -
Changes in Ascorbic Acid and Ascorbate Oxidase Activity of Spinach by Wilting and Soaking TreatmentMitsuko KASAHARA, Noriko TOMINAGA, Keiko HATAE, Atsuko SHIMADA1995 Volume 46 Issue 2 Pages 151-156

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSSpinach was wilted up to 62% of the original weight (wilting treatment) and soaked in water to recover its weight and the appearance (soaking treatment). The changes in ascorbic acid contents and ascorbate oxidase activities of spinach leaves, stalks and roots were examined separately after the wilting treatment and also the soaking treatment. The following results were obtained.
1) Ascorbic acid contents and ascorbate oxidase activities differed in the parts of fresh spinach. Ascorbic acid content was the highest in leaves and the least in roots. About 46% of total ascorbic acid was dehydroascorbic acid in roots. On the other hand, the specific activity of ascorbate oxidase in roots was 200 times higher than that in leaves.
2) Ascorbate oxidase activities were increased in leaves and stalks after the soaking treatment in water at 30°C, when significant decrease in L-ascorbic acid was noted. However, no increase was observed in root after the same treatment in spite of the decrease in L-ascorbic acid.
3) No increase in ascorbate oxidase activity was observed in leaves after the soaking treatment in water at 10°C. Thus, it was inferred that this enzyme was concerned with the decrease in L-ascorbic acid of spinach leaves when they were soaked in water at 30°C, as one of the redox enzymes involving ascorbic acid.View full abstractDownload PDF (770K) -
The Changing Method from Waist Fit Pattern to Waist Loose PatternMachiko MIYOSHI, Yoko OHTSUKA1995 Volume 46 Issue 2 Pages 157-165

Released on J-STAGE: March 10, 2010
JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThis report provides theoretically a comparative study of basic pattern of waist loose type and fit type. Following experiments on basic patterns were conducted : 1) Experiments on the theoretical derivation of basic pattern making; 2) experiments on the theoretical verification of basic pattern making; 3) experiments on the body measurement as case examples.
The results are summarized as follows :
1) Under convex points of upper trunk, there were differences in the surface angles between waist loose type and fit type, accordingly the element lengths of each parts differed. Therefore the lengths of basic pattern differed.
2) The difference of element lengths was larger in back pattern than in front pattern.
3) It was devised to change from basic pattern of waist fit type to loose type, utilizing “the difference” of element lengths.
4) Even the three-dimentional form of armhole was the same, the sole of pattern armhole differed between in the case of waist loose type and the fit type.View full abstractDownload PDF (1913K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSA set of 10 relative heights to the stature and 15 angles expressing the silhouettes of the body, which was projected on a frontal-plane and a sagittal-plane, have been obtained by photographic measuring. These data have been compared between Thai 82 males and 112 females (aged 16 to 18 years) and Japanese 49 males and 52 females (aged 15 to 18 years). The following results have been found : The relative total head height, buttock height and trochanteric height to the stature of Thai males or females are respectively larger than those of Japanese males or females; Thai males and females have shrugged chests, bending necks and sloping shoulders; Japanese males and females have thrown out chests, standing necks and square shoulders. These results indicate that the differences of patterns should be considered in the clothing design of Thai and Japanese youths.View full abstractDownload PDF (1037K) -
Difference of Bathing Time in SummerAkiko FUJIMURA, Kimiko MATSUDA, Shizue OHNO1995 Volume 46 Issue 2 Pages 177-183

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn order to know physiological responses and the sensory rates after bathing, we experimented on difference of bathing time (5, 10, 15min). In summer, by healthy female young adults, rectal temperature, skin temperatures, pulse rate and the body weight decrease were measured. The subjects described their feeling of warmth and discomfort during the experiment.
The results, bathing time 15-min is the most large warm effect of a bathing. In addition its physiological burden also is large. Bathing for a purpose of a promotion of metabolism, we consider that bathing time 10-min seem better. Skin temperatures after bathing showed a remark-able fall. In order to its prevention and recovery, it is important that we examine the handling of body surface and clothing after bathing.View full abstractDownload PDF (921K) -
Effects of the Measure and Clothing after BathingKimiko MATSUDA, Akiko FUJIMURA, Shizue OHNO1995 Volume 46 Issue 2 Pages 185-191

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn the previous paper, we examined effects on physiological responses, the sensory rate and the relation to “yuzame” of conditions of clothing and so on after bathing for 10 min in healthy females in summer. The conditions were C0 (put on clothes at once), C20 (put on clothes at 20 min), Nd (nude after wiping up) and Nw (nude after not wiping up). The results were summarized as follows :
The nude condition (Nd, Nw) were greater than the clothing conditions (C0, C20) on the decrease rate of Ts. The thermal sensation of the nude conditions were slightly cool. We confirmed it made faster “yuzame.” Particularly Nw tended to make faster “yuzame” than Nd. The comfort sensation of C0 was slightly uncomfortable at once after clothing. Ts of C20 decreased until 20 min after bathing on the clothing conditions, but returned toward the previous levels at 60 min as well as C0. In the case of bathing for 10 min on daily life in summer, we consider that we can maintain the comfortable condition, if we wipe up carefully and remove the heat and then put on the fit clothes within 20 min after bathing.View full abstractDownload PDF (956K) -
