    With 40 laryngectomees, psychological condition due to phonatory dysfunction was evaluated with 3 kind of psychological test (Manifest Anxiety Scala; MAS, Cornell Medical Index; CMI, Yatabe-Guilford test; Y-G test) and a general questionnaire concerning their performance status.
    From these results, the relationship between their individual background and psychological status was investigated.
    results were as follows;
    1. As present fear, they complained of phonatory dysfunction, reccurrence of the disease, associated symptoms (hicupp or stricture of tracheostomy) and impossibility of return to office. In these problems, the most important problem was phonatory dysfunction.
    2. Most important uneasiness in patients followed less than 1 year after surgery was impossibility of return to office. Laryngectomees being able to speak well with substitute phonation had no particular uneasiness.
    3. Reccurrent fear of the disease was manifest in the patients with high level anxiety of MAS.
    4. The group with high level anxiety of MAS was included in patients diagnosed of neurotic tendency by CMI, in patients with emortional unstable and social unadaptation by Y-G test, and in patient had a short postoperative term (less than 1 year).

    We investigated on the present state how 59 nurses on working on three shift system, took foods and drinks for their daily meal time and how they understood on their taking nutrition.
    Especially, we examined the relationship between the quantity of nutrition and knowledge of nutrition, as well as pattern of their works in the system.
    1. Nurses, remakedly took less energies, proteins, calciums and irons than other women.
    2. Their food-lives were not influenced by the life-back ground and eating habits, but by their working patterns.
    3. About 60% of nurses were usually taking no breakfast, because they were forced by their irregular life rhythm of the shift working system.
    4. The frequency of omitting the breakfast was higher in the evening shift workers, while omitting the lunch in the night shift workers.
    5. Omitting meals caused approximately 20% of reduction of nutrition; usually omitting lunch much more reducing nutrition than omitting breakfast.
    Thus, reduction of nutrition seems to be caused by the pattern of three shift working system.

    The purpose of the study was to observe the relation of the bed-lying position to the ratio of the costal respiration and abdominal respiration which was being of sufficient and perfect condition of ventilation.
    The method : For each bed-lying position, the amplitude of respiratoion curve on chest wall and abdominal wall, the rate of puls and respiration, and the volume of minutes ventilation were measured. The experiments were performedby horizontal lying on back position, semi Fowlor' position (raised the trunk on angle of 30 degrees), and the sitting position, setting by the gagdet bed, as objects of 9 healthy nurses with the age of 28 to 31 years.
    The results were as follows:
    1) Regarding the ration of cost-abdominal respirations, slight predominance of the abdominal respiration by the horizontal position was observed, whereas by the sitting position the preminance was the costal respiration.
    2) Changing into the 30° semi fowlor's position the abdominal respiration was remarkably predominant : from the horizontal position, there was almost same of the respiration by the horizontal position.
    3) Changing the position from sitting to horizontal was more predominant of abdominal respiration than keeping the horizontal position.
