役割取得能力が学校適応に影響を及ぼすプロセス
No full textThis study examined the relationships among children’s role-taking ability in rule and moral situations and classroom behavior (non-cooperative class behavior, rule compliance behavior, and prosocial behavior), as well as children’s emotions toward school (liking/avoidance). Participants were Grade 5 and 6 primary-school students in Japan. We used path analysis to examine the effects of role-taking ability in moral situations influenced prosocial behavior and school liking. The results indicated that role-taking ability in moral situations influences on school liking via prosocial behavior. The results can be helpful in understanding and improving children’s adjustment to school
Development of new methods to calibrate centre of pressure obtained from force platform
Get PDFKinetics and kinematics data are measured using force platforms and three-dimensional cameras in the gait analysis laboratory. Reducing errors related to the force platform when collecting data was necessary. This study describes a new calibration method for centre of pressure of laboratory force platforms using a sandal with extended bar. Firstly, a subject was asked to put his weight vertically on various places of the force platforms using the sandal to create a correction table. Secondly, nine validation trials were conducted to examine the accuracy of the force platforms after correction. The data taken from the centre of pressure and the motion capture were analyzed. Then the erroneous position of the centre of pressure data was translated to the correct position by using weighted average of the vector mostly close to the validation point. The method used in this study allowed to reduce the maximum error from 24.6 mm to 2.7 mm

Get PDFThe object of this study is to clarify the psychosocial process, in hikikomori cases, leading from the stage of initial recontact with society to the decision to find a job using a job assistance facility. Throughout the whole process, along with the focus on the relationship with parents, particular attention was also paid to the influence of the relationship with other people and staff encountered at the job assistance facility. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with former hikikomori and the experiences of ten former hikikomori were analyzed using Modified Grounded Theory Approach. From
the time there hikikomori felt that they were no longer being criticized so much, as their parents started to take a less critical attitude, they could feel welling up inside them the strength to embark on something
new, while there was also interplay among the three factors of“ trying to do their own thing,”“ hope for the future” and a“ vague sense that things were going to be all right.” At some point, the hikikomori
decided to look for a job assistance facility as a“ first step towards asking for help” and there, thanks to exchanges with the staff and other people through activities, they felt welling up inside them the strength
to work. Overall“, help from parents” in the sense of an awareness of their child’s independence played a part.本研究の目的は、ひきこもる人が社会との再会段階の状態から就労支援施設を活用して就労を決断するまでの心理社会的プロセスを明らかにすることである。特に、プロセス全般に渡って親との関係性に焦点を当てるとともに、就労支援施設で出会う仲間やスタッフとの関係性の影響にも注目した。ひきこもり経験者に半構造化面接を実施し、就労している10名の体験について修正版グラウンデッド・セオリー・アプローチを用いて分析した。親からの批判的態度が軽減し［非難の鎮まり感］を抱くころから【踏み出す力の醸造】が行われるようになり＜自分に向きあう＞＜将来への希望＞＜ぼんやりと大丈夫感＞の三者が互いに影響しあっていた。あるとき就労支援機関を自ら探索し【支援を求めて第一歩】を踏み出し、そこでは活動をとおしたスタッフや仲間との交流により【働く力の醸造】が行われていた。全体的に、本人の自立を意識した【親からの支援】が影響していた
Why and Why Now? Understanding the Rapid Rise of English-medium Instruction in Higher Education in Japan
Get PDFEnglish-medium instruction (EMI) of content courses is a growing trend in higher education in Japan. As of
2013, over 1/3 of Japanese universities offered EMI courses, mainly in humanities and social sciences, and this
number has been steadily growing over the past 15 years. The timing of the growth in EMI can be tied to shifts
in how internationalization is viewed among higher-education stakeholders, administrative and structural
changes at universities, changes in the relationship between universities and the government, and the rising
importance of university ranking tables. Underlying rationales for EMI implementation can be understood in
terms of wider global trends towards greater internationalization, and the massification of higher education in
Japan. Other oft cited rationales for EMI implementation, financial incentives or the inward looking tendencies
of Japanese youth, do not appear to be significant drivers
Welfare needs and producing a support system in public housing
Get PDF本研究では、公営団地に居住する住民の福祉ニーズを通して、お互いが助け合える関係づくりに向けた提言を行うことを目的としている。研究対象は、A県B市C区の公営団地に居住する住民とし、自治会を通して調査を行った。「近所づきあいの程度」、「困りごとの有無、内容」、「手伝いができるかどうか」等の項目から分析を行った。住民の困りごとは多岐に渡っていた。公営団地という特殊性のもと、高齢化率が必ずしも高い団地ばかりではなかった。そのため若年層の増加は、支援者として期待される面もあるが、若年層において地域における支えあい、近所づきあいに対して消極的な回答がみられた。特に、40～50代の女性は、困りごととして「仕事」と「将来の不安」が高く、日常生活における地域の支えあいでは対応が困難のものもあった。その一方で、相談相手もなく地域の中で、孤立している状況がみられた。地域の支えあいに向けたマッチングのしくみづくりだけでなく、公的な支援が求められていた。あわせて地域で顔がみえる関係づくりにつながる日常的なしかけづくりが、重要である。In this research, through the welfare needs of residents living in public housing, the aim is to make recommendations for creating relationships that can mutually help each other. Analysis was conducted from items such as "degree of neighborhood association", "content of problems related to daily life", "whether or not to help". The problems of the residents were diverse. Under the special nature of public housing, it was not only housing districts where the aging rate was necessarily high. As a result, the increase in the number of young people is expected as a supporter, but young people responded negatively to regional support and neighbors' association. In particular, women in 40s to 50s had "work" and "anxiety in the future" as problems, and there were also cases where it was difficult to deal with regional support in daily life. On the other hand, there were no consultation partners, and isolated situations were seen in the area. In addition to creating a mechanism of matching towards regional support, role of administration is sought. It is important to lead to the creation of relationships where faces can be seen in the area
保育者を目指す学生に向けた情報教育に関する一考察 : 適切な課題の提供
Get PDF大学などで授業を行う場合、課題の選定は重要な要素である。幼稚園教諭や保育士を目指す学生にとって、情報関連の授業は必修ではあるが、あまり得意でない学生も多く、必ずしもその必要性を感じているわけではない。そこで著者は、保育者を目指す学生が将来必要となる要素を考察し、適切な課題を設定することによって、情報技能に、より興味を持ち、その必要性を理解してもらうことを思考した。具体的には、将来作成することが必要になることが推測される保護者向けの「おたより」に注目し、特殊なソフトを用いるのではなく、使い慣れたオフィスソフトを用いて、子どもも一緒に楽しく見ることができる「おたより」を作成するという課題を設定することを試行した。将来必要となる項目を選定し課題として取り組むことによって、ワードやパワーポイントなどを使うことを苦手としていた学生も興味を持って取り組むことが期待できる。その結果、学生自らが考えた様々な工夫を積極的に施し、大学で学んだ知識を、キャリアの一部として、就職後も活かすことができる力が養われることが期待できる。本稿では、その具体的な方法について述べる
