JOURNAL FREE ACCESSIn order to observe the physical strength in growing, it is a matter never to be neglected that the physique and also the psychological and intellectual influences must be considered. Nevertheless this sort of study has hitherto been very rare, and leaves much to be discussed.
The writer, reflecting this point deeply, investigated the growth and change of the physique under the influence of mental activity, and thus tried to grasp the actual state of the physical development.
As an object to be examined, I selected the pupils of a certain primary school in Tokyo and those- of a middle school in its neighbourhood. I made physical examinations for 7 times and practised Awaji-method inspections for the whole pupils at the beginning of each school term from September, 1950 to that in 1952. I selected 413 boys and 405 girls as thorough examined ones through the whole terms, and applied them Rhorer-Index exponent as a physical characterstic. The result and conclusion for these experiments came as follows:
For the development of physique during the growth period, psychological factors must play a pretty important part. Above all for lower class boys and girls in the primary school, for the second and third year boys in the middle school, and for the girls in the fifth and sixth year of the primary school and in the first year in the middle school, 2 could admit a reletive importance between the psychological operations and the growth of the physical constitution.View full abstractDownload PDF (2264K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESS1. Of 400 children examined, none was an exclusive meat-eater or an exclusive vegetable-eater.
2. Statistically speaking, children like eggs best, followed by meat, mussel, fish, milk, and lastly vegetables in the order of preference. Among vegetables lotus “roots” and cabbages are liked best while radish, carrot, and onion are disliked. Vegetable dishes in the form of “tempura” or soft-frying are preferred to boiled and sauced vegetables.
3. Trend of food discrimination is more marked in girls than tn boys, in confirmalion of the author's first report.
4. Dependence of food habit on the type of versive disposition of personality is not definitely shown, although ambigual types appears less inclined to food discrimination.
5. Various environmental factors undoubtedly contribute to shaping of personality on one side, and to food habit on the other. It will be then too rash and unreasonable to assume one as the result or cause of the otheView full abstractDownload PDF (1831K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSFor three monthes since July 1957, the authors have investigated as to peripheral blood picture of healthy adults, (man 55, woman 54) in Toshima village, Tokyo-To and obtained the following results (Figures indicate average values)
1) Number of Erythrocytes were in 424.8×104 in male and 411.9×104 in female and average figure was 418×104 in total.
2) Number of Leucocytes were about 5235 in male, about 5306 in female and total average 5270. These figures were lower than the standard figure of Japanese.
3) Haemoglobin content (by Sahli-Haemochromometer) were 83.7% in male and 21.5% in female and 82.6% in total.
4) The results of differeutial count of Leucocyte were as follows.
a) Neutrophil Leucocytes, male 46.5% female 52.1% in total 49.2%.
b) Lymphocytes, male 47.9% female 42% in total 45.0%
c) As to monocytes, male 2.7% female 2.9% in total 2.8%
d) As to eosinophil leucocytes, male 2.9% female 1.7% in total 2.3%
e) As to basophil leucocytes, male 0.03% female 0.14% in total 0.09%
The authors should pay attention to the lower figure on erythrocytes, leucocytes, and haemogloblin, but they can not tell, without consideration of difference of the life conditions of natives, that these lower figures are significant, therefore they must study further several factors on this matter. As drinking water is rainwater, they have to consider the influence by radioactive materials in future, but at present status they believe it is not necessary to take into consideration the influence of radioactive material from the resultabove mentioned.View full abstractDownload PDF (1051K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSToshima Island, Tokyo, (one of Seven Islands of Izu) is a small island having 413 km2 in area and located at about 140 Kilometers south east of Tokyo City on the Pacific Ocean, and there is Mt. Miyatsuka (507.5 m in high) in the central part of the Island, natural features are very hilly. The auther investigated on Toshima village which is one of the villages of the Island and the result of the investigation on the outline of this village was as follows.
According to my investigation on March 1956, the number of house-holds were 83 and the size of population wes 360. Increase and decrease of population were not noted by me. Average temperature of year round is 17.9... Due to not having river and water welling out, villager makes it a rule to stock rain water as their drinking water.
Further, due to not having port in this island, the facilities of communication on the sea were always irregular, and also fishing was not easy and degree of cultural life was lower than the other district. As industry, the fruit and oil of camellia were main products and the quantities of these products occupied one third of that of Tokyo-To and it's farm land were occupied 22 per cent of all farm land in this island.View full abstractDownload PDF (10709K) -

In the construction of population on March 31st 1956, 0.4 age group was 10.8% and 15.19 age group was 5.6%. And rate of construction on age group showed remarkable decrease. Regarding cause of this statues, the former was due to the decrease of birth rate and almost the latter was due to detachment of villagers. Accordingly, percentage of high age group was in high rate.
