JOURNAL OPEN ACCESSThe proportion of morning type and evening type life patterns of children were compared between a large and a small city. The children showing the evening type were more in a large city than in a small city. Children in a large city go to bed and get up later than those in a small city and spend their time more regularly. After school, most children in a large city go to private lessons every day or every two days while less often in a small city. This tight schedule or children in a large city may be one or the reasons that make their lives more regular than those in a small city.View full abstractDownload PDF (713K) -

JOURNAL OPEN ACCESSThe objectives of this research were l) to measure the extent to which junior high school students undertook resources and energy saving practices, i.e. cooperation on reclamation of empty cans (EC), turning off the lights in unoccupied rooms (OL), stopping the tap water during polishing teeth (SW), and reusing of used notebooks (RN), and 2) to investigate the effect of their attitudes (Aact) and subjective norm (SN) toward performing the savings on their practices using the Fishbein regression model. Frequency counts of the saving practices indicated that the majority of the subjects did the savings of OL and that only half of them the savings of EC, SW, and RN. The results of the regression analysis revealed that Aact was effective for all the savings, but SN for both SW and RN, These findings showed the necessity of their attitude change toward the saving practices in developing a home economics education program conceming resources and energy conservation.View full abstractDownload PDF (522K) -

Only one subject, a 6th grade girl, showed standard performance while those who performed nearest to the standard were 14% with increase according to the advance of grade. The rest of performances were varied and 6% of the total failed to perform the wringing.View full abstractDownload PDF (498K) -
