    The purposes of this paper are: i) to propose a testing of kinetic vision using a horisontally moved test object for an aptitude test of a driver and ii) to study its capability.
    The above proposed test is entitled “Tou-Ridai's Testing of Kinetic Vision”.
    The results of experiments are as follows:
    1) There is a negative correlation bewteen a kinetic vision and a static vision, but a large difference among kinetic visions of each subjects in the same static vision level.
    2) It is resulted from the test for male subjects with astigmatic lenses that this test has a possibility to be used for a testing of astigmatism at the sametime.
    Consequently this test is useful for one of aptitude tests of driver.

    The existing power meter with inertia wheels has had some defects in accuracy and inconvenience in measuring the generating power, when muscles contract. A new type of power meter has been developed and manufactured with the new design and the flat type of inertia wheel. This apparatus has two components, namely the mechanical and the electrical parts. The former consists of changing inertia wheels, lever, loads, gearing and pulley. The latter consists of a velocity detector with a photo-electrical module and a mark-senser, differential electric-circuits for acceleration and operating electric-circuits for force and power.
    Velocity, force, and power in the whole exercise time have been recorded on recording papers at the same time and have been analyzed for estimation of muscular function without complexity by calibrating these measured values. This apparatus may be used in the field of physical activity and laboratory research.

  • a study in terms of adaptation-level theory

    Helson's adaptation level (AL) theory is a general attempt to understand judgment process relating physical and sensation magnitudes. The distinctive feature of AL theory is to explain the relativity of judgment by assuming AL concept, which is the reference level of judgment established within the behaving organism. And Helson defined mathematically the AL as a weighted geometric mean of all background stimuli. This experiment was designed to study the effect of stimulus series on comparative judgment of lifted weights in terms of the AL model. The results indecate that comparative judgment depend on the stimulus series, and the AL model can account for the empirical data quite well.
