    Abstract (our paper) In Japanese scientific news articles, although the research results are described clearly, the article's sources tend to be uncited. This makes it difficult for readers to know the details of the research. In this paper, we address the task of extracting journal names from Japanese scientific news articles. We hypothesize that a journal name is likely to occur in a specific context. To support the hypothesis, we construct a character-based method and extract journal names using this method. This method only uses the left and right context features of journal names. The results of the journal name extractions suggest that the distribution hypothesis plays an important role in identifying the journal names. Data list.txt.gz: The first column is the extraction text by our method (journal name), the second column is the cleaned text, the third column is the news date, and the fourth column is the news URL.

    Examining sports motivation : comparison between Singaporean and Japanese

    No full text
    Cultural and social background influence the type of motivation people have in sports participation. This study aims to find out if there is any significant difference in sports motivation between Singaporean and Japanese. Self Determination Theory (SDT) was used as a framework of present study where the types of motivation are categorized as intrinsic, integrated, identified, introjected, external and amotivation. Sports Motivation Scale-II (SMS-II) was used to measure the type of motivation, and multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to find out the differences between the two groups which consists of 349 Singaporean and 653 Japanese. It was hypothesized that Singaporean score higher for extrinsic motivation whereas Japanese score higher for intrinsic motivation. Result showed that there was a statistically significant difference between Singaporean and Japanese university student-athletes on the combined dependent variables (F = (6, 994) = 58.9, p = .000, partial eta squared = .262). Intrinsic, integrated, identified and introjected motivation were significantly different between the two groups where Japanese scored higher only for introjected motivation (F = (1, 92.385) = 62.292, p = .000, partial eta squared = .059). There were minimum motivation differences in relation to frequency of training and competition level between the two groups. Motivation may be indeed influenced by culture and social factors. Intrinsic motivation may not necessarily lead to higher level of sports performance. Future study may include the measurement of performance and finding out the optimal level of motivation related to ideal performance level.Bachelor of Science (Sport Science and Management

    “Masato de Yuca” and “Chicha de Siete Semillas” Two Traditional Vegetable Fermented Beverages from Peru as Source for the Isolation of Potential Probiotic Bacteria

    Open Access funding provided thanks to the CRUE-CSIC agreement with Springer Nature. This research was funded by the Ibero-American Programme on Science and Technology for Development (CYTED), grant number 917PTE0537. The Spanish team was funded by the “Agencia Estatal de Investigación” and the “Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional” (AEI/FEDER, UE), grant number PCIN2017-075″. The Peruvian team was funded by the National Council of Science and Technology and Innovation of Peru through its execution unit National Fund for Scientific, Technological and Technological Innovation (CONCYTEC/FONDECYT), grant No. 001–2017.In this work, two Peruvian beverages “Masato de Yuca,” typical of the Amazonian communities made from cassava (Manihot esculenta), and “Chicha de Siete Semillas,” made from different cereal, pseudo-cereal, and legume flours, were explored for the isolation of lactic acid bacteria after obtaining the permission of local authorities following Nagoya protocol. From an initial number of 33 isolates, 16 strains with different RAPD- and REP-PCR genetic profiles were obtained. In Chicha, all strains were Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (formerly Lactobacillus plantarum), whereas in Masato, in addition to this species, Limosilactobacillus fermentum (formerly Lactobacillus fermentum), Pediococcus acidilactici, and Weissella confusa were also identified. Correlation analysis carried out with their carbohydrate fermentation patterns and enzymatic profiles allowed a clustering of the lactobacilli separated from the other genera. Finally, the 16 strains were submitted to a static in vitro digestion (INFOGEST model) that simulated the gastrointestinal transit. Besides, their ability to adhere to the human epithelial intestinal cell line HT29 was also determined. Following both procedures, the best probiotic candidate was Lac. plantarum Ch13, a robust strain able to better face the challenging conditions of the gastrointestinal tract and showing higher adhesion ability to the intestinal epithelium in comparison with the commercial probiotic strain 299v. In order to characterize its benefit for human health, this Ch13 strain will be deeply studied in further works. © 2021, The Author(s).Consejo Nacional de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación Tecnológica - Concyte
