JOURNAL FREE ACCESSEs wird eine Versuchsreihe beschrieben bei welcher der Zusammenhang zwischen körperlicher Belastung und dem Verhalten beim TAF-Test an trainierten Sportlern und gesunden Vergleichspersonen mit den folgenden Ergebnissen untersucht wurde:
1. Die Pulszahlen (Ausgangspuls, Arbeitspuls, Erholungspuls) waren bei den untrainierten Versuchspersonen signifikant höher als bei den Sportlern.
2. Nicht nur die physische Ermüdung, sondern auch die Abnahme der Leistung im TAF-Test setzt bei Trainierten später ein als bei Untrainierten. (Bei Trainierten ab 180 Watt, bei Untrainierten ab 150 Watt).
3. Hinsichtlich eines Zusammenhanges zwischen Arbeitspuls und TAF-Wert ergibt sich nur eine signifikante negative Korrelation, wobei hier die Korrelationsgerade steiler absinkt als bei Untrainierten.View full abstractDownload PDF (512K) -
The relation between TTS and numbers of impact noise exposureKotaro Yamamura, Akira Okada1972 Volume 27 Issue 5 Pages 408-413

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAudiometrically normal, male students were exposed to Impact Noises by tapping machines (B duration, ca. 300msec) for 40 minutes and the following results were obtained.
1) Sound level of Impact Noises (10pulses/sec) were measured using a sound level meter which was set at the “slow”. It was 95dB. (all pass)
TTS growth (Test Frequency 4kHz) due to Impact Noises were not significantly greater than due to steady-state Noises. (95dB (all pass))
2) In the exposure to Impact Noise (1pulse/4sec), TTS growths of 125dB at the peak values were significantly greater than that of 120dB at the peak values at the both 1kHz and 4kHz.
From these results it is permissable to measure the sound level of impact noise (10pulses/sec, or more pulses per second) for the evaluation of harmfulness using the sound level meter. The data obtained by our experiment concerning TTS growth at 4kHz supports the criterion proposed by Coles.View full abstractDownload PDF (3067K) -
Follow up study through Rorschach Technique and WAISHaruo Kuwabara1972 Volume 27 Issue 5 Pages 414-429

Released on J-STAGE: February 17, 2009
JOURNAL FREE ACCESSTo analyze the mental process of “aging”, Rorschach-test and WAIS were administered, twice over an interval of one year, to 59 persons all over 65 years of age.
Eight patients had psychiatric episodes and appeared older than their age, and 51 were control subjects, apparently healthy.
The results indicate that images of contents of the Rorschach test were preserved regardless of aging or episodes, although the connection with certain Rorschach cards had a tendency to be lost, and that the pattern suggesting organic changes in the brain became more manifest in WAIS. The symptoms of mental aging were mainly attributable to disorientation in time and space, which reduced the ability of the patient to connect images systematically with actual time and space.
Quick-temperedness and maudline character of the elderly, for example may be explained as an orientation dysfunction to control the emotions in accordance with actual situations, while the psychic apparatus and the motives to evoke emotion are preserved.
It is noteworthy that these symptoms resemble Semantic Aphasia.
Rapid aging observed after psychological conflicts e. g. social maladaptation or physical disorders (e.g. Thigh bone fracture). These may also be a reflection of disorientation such as was seen with patients described herein.
Treatment of disorientation, by means of systematized reorganization images through social acceptance, support and encouragement is therefore the key to mental hygiene of the aged including preservation of psychological functions, which will protect them from Personal reference, Ideaperserveration fine details, Ambiguities in the blot choice as characterized in the proceeding report.View full abstractDownload PDF (2323K) -
Part 1. City noise and community's reaction to the noise in Saga CityHajime Miura, Shinji Sato1972 Volume 27 Issue 5 Pages 430-438
Published: December 28, 1972
Released on J-STAGE: February 17, 2009
JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn order to clarify the actual state of city noise and community's reaction to same, measurement of noise on the streets at 134 places and the statistical investigation into the reaction of the questionnarie method were performed in Saga City.
Results are summarized as follows:
1) The magnitude of mean noise levels of each area classified by road type and arranged in a decreasing order, is as follows.
National>prefectural>municipal and private roads.
2) The magnitude of mean noise levels of each area classified according to the actual condition of the vicinity of 134 places and arranged in decreasing order, was as follows.
Commercial>industrial>and residential districts.
3) The intensity of annoyance reactions to the street noise markedly increased at the noise level of 60dB (A) or more in the daytime and at 40dB (A) or more at midnight.View full abstractDownload PDF (1243K) -
Part 3. Determination of Organochlorine Pesticide Residues in Human Tissues and Other SamplesToshihiko Kamada1972 Volume 27 Issue 5 Pages 439-443
Published: December 28, 1972
Released on J-STAGE: February 17, 2009
JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn the present study, farm products, animal fat, cow and human milk as well as human tissues were collected and investigation of contamination by organochlorine pesticides was done by means of gas chromatography. BHC and DDT residues were found to be widely distributed. As the pesticides were observed in animal tissues more than in farm products an accumulation was noted in animal tissues. Pesticide concentrations among the animals varied presumably due to concentration differences among the different fodders. It is reasonably observed that pesticides remain longer in human tissues as the human diet includes animal tissue which has been previously contaminated by the pesticides.View full abstractDownload PDF (575K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe problem of over-medication has often been called to account in Japan. Applying this to surgery, 3, 786 cases of appendectomy which were performed of a 25 year period were investigated at a certain hospital in a local city. Incidence of appendectomy among the inhabitants of that city was also studied. There has been an unusual increase in appendectomy surgery, especially in non-inflammatory cases, i.e. “catarrhal appendicitis” since about 1950. It is postulated that this increase can be attributed to the payment system of “Fee for Services” in the medical insurance system of Japan.View full abstractDownload PDF (1486K)
