  • Refereed, journal.pone, PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, The difference in hemodynamic responses between dominant and non-dominant hands during muscle contraction and relaxation: An fNIRS study., Yokoyama N, Ohtaka C, Kato K, Kubo H, Nakata H, The present study used functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), and investigated the differences in neural activation of ipsi- or contralateral hemispheres between right dominant and left non-dominant hands among right-handed subjects using consecutive motor tasks with muscle contraction and relaxation. The subjects performed tasks under four conditions: (1) right hand up (R-Up), (2) left hand up (L-Up), (3) right hand down (R-Down), and (4) left hand down (L-Down). The peak amplitude of oxy-Hb was significantly larger at the contralateral than ipsilateral hemisphere in the premotor area (PM) under the R-Up condition, and no significant differences were observed between contra- and ipsilateral hemispheres under the L-Up condition. In addition, the peak amplitude was more negative at the contra- than ipsilateral hemisphere in the PM under the R-Down condition, while the peak amplitude was significantly more negative at the ipsi- than contralateral hemisphere in the PM under the L-Down condition. These results suggest that the PM of the left hemisphere among right-handed subjects plays an important role in muscle contraction and relaxation with force control., Jun. 2019, 14, 7, e0220100, Scientific journal, True, 10.1371/journal.pone.0220100

  • Not Refereed, Journal of the Human-Environment System, Japanese Society of Human-Environment System, Effects of Room Specifications and Lifestyles of Residents on Indoor Formaldehyde Concentrations :― Formaldehyde Concentrations in Student Dormitories ―, Azuma Michiyo; Kubo Hiroko; Isoda Norio, The concern with indoor air pollution has been growing as a serious social problem since the 1990s in Japan, the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare has established guidelines for addressing indoor chemical substances, and the amended Building Standards Law has restricted the use of building materials containing formaldehyde and required rooms to have ventilation equipment. The purpose of the present study was to examine the effects of differences in the building material specifications on indoor air quality. Two student dormitories were selected for investigation: a student dormitory remodeled using interior finishing materials containing low- formaldehyde substances; and a dormitory built according to conventional specifications. Indoor formaldehyde concentrations were lower than the guideline established by the Ministry of Health, Labour, and Welfare, even in summer under high-temperature conditions, due to the implementation of the policy to reduce chemical substances in building materials and the effects of the restrictions. However, problems were identified in terms of increases in indoor concentrations after installation of furniture, and mean concentrations during sleeping hours. Ventilation performed by residents effectively reduced mean formaldehyde concentrations. To maintain appropriate indoor air quality, it is important for residents to pay attention to ventilation and room furniture, and their lifestyle, in addition to the selection of building materials., 2015, 18, 1, 1, 9, 10.1618/jhes.18.001
  • Refereed, Journal of the Human-Environment System, Japanese Society of Human-Environment System, Gender Differences in Thermal Comfort and Responses to Skin Cooling by Air Conditioners in Japanese Summer, KUBO Hiroko; Ayako Yasuoka; Hiroko Kubo; Kazuyo Tsuzuki; Norio Isoda, We examined 200 college students, at rest in a sitting position in an air-conditioned classroom, to investigate the differences in physiological and psychological responses between men and women in the thermoneutral zone of SET*. The percentage of women who reported suffering from the cold more often in an air-conditioned environment was higher than that of men. The number of clothing items and the clothing insulation value, estimated using International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 9920 were higher for the women than for the men, based on the students' own everyday clothing choices as worn during the experiments. However, the percentage of body surface area covered by clothing worn by the women was significantly lower than that for the men. Although oral and skin temperature decreased in both men and women after 60 min of exposure to a temperature of 25 °C, the oral and skin temperatures of the women's forehead and palms were significantly lower than those in the men. Moreover, the decrease in the women's oral temperature was greater than that of the men. Women felt cooler and more uncomfortable than men did in the ASHRAE comfort zone, with SET* of 22.2–25.6 °C. Gender differences in physiological responses, and differences in the clothing typically worn by men and women, might affect psychological responses to the moderate thermal environment encountered in daily life., 2015, 18, 1, 11, 20, 10.1618/jhes.18.011

We examined the relationship between airborne fungi and the thermal environment, surrounding natural environment, structures of houses and use of a dehumidifier. The subject residential area was located in the northern part of Nara city, Nara prefecture, Japan. Six detached houses were included in this study. In residential areas, outdoor airborne concentrations were high during summer and autumn, correlated with humidity. The presence of Basidiomycetes was particularly notable, although the indoor concentration was lower than the outdoor level. In the semi-basement rooms, relative humidity was nearly always > 80% when the residence was built however, both the indoor humidity and fungal concentrations decreased greatly when a dehumidifier was used in this study. High levels of Aspergillus and Basidiomycetes were detected in semi-basements. Basidiomycetes are likely of outdoor origin, whereas Aspergillus might grow indoors. Moreover, the composition of fungal species differed according to room-structure and usage. Due to the health risks associated with high indoor concentrations of fungi, the utilization of the semi-basement or basement space requires adequate ventilation and dehumidification, beginning immediately after construction., 2014, 19, 1, 1, 9, Scientific journal, 10.4265/bio.19.1
  • Refereed, JOURNAL OF EPIDEMIOLOGY AND COMMUNITY HEALTH, BMJ PUBLISHING GROUP, Influence of room heating on ambulatory blood pressure in winter: a randomised controlled study, Keigo Saeki; Kenji Obayashi; Junko Iwamoto; Yuu Tanaka; Noriyuki Tanaka; Shota Takata; Hiroko Kubo; Nozomi Okamoto; Kimiko Tomioka; Satoko Nezu; Norio Kurumatani, Background Previous studies have proposed that higher blood pressure (BP) in winter is an important cause of increased mortality from cardiovascular disease during the winter. Some observational and physiological studies have shown that cold exposure increases BP, but evidence from a randomised controlled study assessing the effectiveness of intensive room heating for lowering BP was lacking. Objectives The present study aimed to determine whether intensive room heating in winter decreases ambulatory BP as compared with weak room heating resulting in a 10 degrees C lower target room temperature when sufficient clothing and bedclothes are available. Methods We conducted a parallel group, assessor blinded, simple randomised controlled study with 1: 1 allocation among 146 healthy participants in Japan from November 2009 to March 2010. Ambulatory BP was measured while the participants stayed in single experimental rooms from 21:00 to 8:00. During the session, participants could adjust the amount of clothing and bedclothes as required. Compared with the weak room heating group (mean temperature +/- SD: 13.9 +/- 3.3 degrees C), systolic morning BP (mean BP 2 h after getting out of bed) of the intensive room heating group (24.2 +/- 1.7 degrees C) was significantly lower by 5.8 mm Hg (95% CI 2.4 to 9.3). Sleep-trough morning BP surges (morning BP minus lowest night-time BP) in the intensive room heating group were significantly suppressed to about two thirds of the values in the weak room heating group (14.3 vs 21.9 mm Hg; p<0.01). Conclusions Intensive room heating decreased morning BP and the morning BP surge in winter., Jun. 2013, 67, 6, 484, 490, Scientific journal, 10.1136/jech-2012-201883
  • Refereed, JOURNAL OF THERMAL BIOLOGY, PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, Interindividual differences in thermal comfort and the responses to skin cooling in young women, Ayako Yasuoka; Hiroko Kubo; Kazuyo Tsuzuki; Norio Isoda, The present study aims to understand the effects of interindividual differences in thermal comfort on the relationship between the preferred temperature and the thermoregulatory responses to ambient cooling. Thirteen young women subjects chose the preferred ambient temperature (preferred T-a) in a climate chamber and were categorized into the H group (preferring >= 29 degrees C; n=6) and the M group (preferring < 29 degrees C; n=7). The H group preferred warmer sensations than the M group (P <0.05) and the average of preferred T-a was 27.6 degrees C and 30.2 degrees C in the M group and H group, respectively. Then all subjects were exposed to temperature variations in the climate chamber. During T-a variations from 33 degrees C to 25 degrees C, the H group felt colder than the M group, although no difference was noted in the T-sk (mean skin temperature) and Ts-hand between the 2 groups. From the view of the relationship between the T-sk and thermal sensation, although the thermal sensitivity to the T-sk was almost similar in the H and M groups, the H group might have lower threshold to decreasing T-a than the M group.

  • Not Refereed, International Journal of Biometeorology, Springer, Prediction of human thermophysiological responses during shower bathing, Abdul Munir; Takada Satoru; Matsushita Takayuki; Kubo Hiroko, This study develops a model to predict the thermophysiological response of the human body during shower bathing. Despite the needs for the quantitative evaluation of human body response during bathing for thermal comfort and safety, the complicated mechanisms of heat transfer at the skin surface, especially during shower bathing, have disturbed the development of adequate models. In this study, an initial modeling approach is proposed by developing a simple heat transfer model at the skin surface during shower bathing applied to Stolwijk's human thermal model. The main feature of the model is the division of the skin surface into three parts: a dry part, a wet part without water flow, and a wet part with water flow. The area ratio of each part is decided by a simple formula developed from a geometrical approach based on the shape of the Stolwijk's human thermal model. At the same time, the convective heat transfer coefficient between the skin and the flowing water is determined experimentally. The proposed model is validated by a comparison with the results of human subject experiments under controlled and free shower conditions. The model predicts the mean skin temperature during shower fairly well both for controlled and free shower bathing styles., Mar. 2010, 54, 2, 165, 178, Scientific journal, 10.1007/s00484-009-0265-9

  • Not Refereed, Research journal of living science, Nara Women's University, An evaluation of the livelihoods of Afghan refugees in Iran: from interviews in Tehran and Mashhad, Miyasaka Yasuko; Iwasaki Masami; Kubo Hiroko, A preliminary evaluation of Afghan refugees in Iran is reported based on their backgrounds and their living situations. The field study was conducted from January 12 to 15, 2007. First we visited an Afghan refugee family and interviewed the members in Tehran. Next, we visited Nippon International Cooperation for Community Development (NICCO)'s office in Mashhad and interviewed two staff members and five students attending the vocational school managed by NICCO. The interviews were analyzed and evaluated and we have reached the following provisional conclusions. 1. Afghan refugees form and live in Afghan communities to avoid discrimination from the Iranian population in Iran. 2. Since Iran has a good infrastructure, Afghan refugees' living standard in Iran is higher than that in Bamyan, Afghanistan. 3. Resettlement and adjustment to life in Afghanistan has caused a lot of difficulties for refugees who do not own their houses or properties in Afghanistan, and who are second-generation Afghans born and raised in Iran. 4. The Iranian government has been promoting the repatriate policy for Afghan refugees and the support measures of educational and work opportunities for Afghan refugees in Iran have been declining. 5. The repatriated refugees often face hardships in daily life in Afghanistan. Those hardships cause some of them to go back to Iran or to repeatedly move their residences across international borders. They develop transnational networks of family and relatives as their survival strategies., Oct. 2007, 54, 1, 26, 34

Four healthy young females served as the subjects. The experiments were performed in a climate chamber under three conditions: at 13 degrees C-RH70% with futon and blanket in winter, at 20-18 degrees C-RH60% with futon and towelket in autumn and at 29 degrees C-RH70% with towslket in summer. The subjects' skin temperature on the sole was lower until about 4 hours after lights off in winter than in autumn and summer, and the percentage of st.2 was lower and st,4 was higher in winter than in autumn and summer, although the bed climate both in winter and autumn was much the same., Apr. 1999, 53, 2, 121, 123, Scientific journal, 10.1046/j.1440-1819.1999.00503.x
  • Refereed, Journal of Architecture Planung and Envuribnebtal Engineering, Architectural Institute of Japan, The Evaluation of Thermal Comfort Affected by Conduction from Warter Heated Floor To Contacted Body Surface, KUBO Hiroko, The purpose of this paper is to clarify the effect of air temperature and floor temperature on the occupants1 comfort sensation in the hot water floor heating system. This paper also considers the contact areas between floor and human body to quantitatively determine the heat conduction between the floor and the subjects. The present study deals with the effect of heat conduction with regard to modified mean skin temperature. The subjects (7 female college students) were exposed to the following conditions : combinations of air temperatures (18℃,23℃) and water temperatures (25℃,30℃,35℃,40℃,45℃) in still air and RH 40% . The subjects were exposed to these conditions while sitting on the floor, sitting on a chair and lying on the floor. The following results were obtained: The skin temperature of the body parts in contact with the floor was affected by the floor temperature. The thermal sensation vote was neutral at a mean skin temperature of 33℃. Levels of thermal comfort and acceptability of the floor temperature was rated as 'satisfactory' at globe temperatures above 20℃. The permissable comfort level of the floor temperature was found to be approximately 25℃ at globe temperature 20℃. New weighting coefficients to calculate mean skin temperature are derived on the basis of Hardy & DuBois formula., 1997, 65, 536, 31, 36, 10.3130/aija.65.43_2

Also this paper attempts to clarify the characteristics and problems associated with it. For the purpose, we conducted surveys among 900 residents of western Japan during both winter and summer, the residents arranged with three age groups. The main results are as follows : 1) In the summer, the most popular cooling systems are air conditioners among young and middle-aged people, and electric fans among old people over 60. 2) In the winter, the heating mechanism most commonly used are unvented burning heaters among the middle and old people, and "kotatsu"-style heating among those under 40. 3) In the summer, the choice of a cooling system by older people are determined by individual constitution and the body mass index. In the winter, choice of a heating system is affected more by the age of the dwelling or family composition than by constitutional needs., 15 Nov. 1995, 46, 11, 1091, 1100, 10.11428/jhej1987.46.1091

We examined the relationship between airborne fungi and the thermal environment, surrounding natural environment, structures of houses and use of a dehumidifier. The subject residential area was located in the northern part of Nara city, Nara prefecture, Japan. Six detached houses were included in this study. In residential areas, outdoor airborne concentrations were high during summer and autumn, correlated with humidity. The presence of Basidiomycetes was particularly notable, although the indoor concentration was lower than the outdoor level. In the semi-basement rooms, relative humidity was nearly always >80% when the residence was built; however, both the indoor humidity and fungal concentrations decreased greatly when a dehumidifier was used in this study. High levels of Aspergillus and Basidiomycetes were detected in semi-basements. Basidiomycetes are likely of outdoor origin, whereas Aspergillus might grow indoors. Moreover, the composition of fungal species differed according to room-structure and usage. Due to the health risks associated with high indoor concentrations of fungi, the utilization of the semi-basement or basement space requires adequate ventilation and dehumidification, beginning immediately after construction., Mar. 2014, 19, 1, 1, 9, Scientific journal

In this experiment, 9 healthy university students smelled 4 samples of cedar which grew in Miyazaki Prefecture, Gifu Prefecture, Mie Prefecture, and Mie Prefecture (these contained core materials). The psychological effects were studied by conducting a survey (by distributing questionnaires) to enquire about odor intensity and desirability. The physiological effects were determined by measuring the brain waves of the subjects. The study shows that the subjects exhibit differences based on their growing area and the core material’s characteristic tendency., 2018, 42, 61, 62, 10.24538/jhesp.42.0_61

In this report, in order to measure the thermal sensation of elderly people living in high temperature room, we conducted experiments to measure thermal sensation and thermal comfort etc. in the laboratory and in climate chamber. The participants were 9 male and 9 female elderly people who took part in house thermal environments measurements. In the case of climate camber and laboratory, they reported that the higher the room temperature was, the hotter the thermal sensation was on the hot side, the thermal comfort became the unpleasant side. On the other hand, the relationship between living room temperature and thermal sensation varied greatly in the their living room. There was not much relation with living room temperature., 2018, 42, 183, 186, 10.24538/jhesp.42.0_183

  • Neuroscience research, Effects of hypocapnia and hypercapnia on human somatosensory processing., Hiroki Nakata; Ryusuke Kakigi; Hiroko Kubo; Manabu Shibasaki, The present study investigated the effects of hypocapnia and hypercapnia on human somatosensory processing by utilizing somatosensory evoked magnetic fields (SEFs) with magnetoencephalography (MEG). Thirteen volunteers participated in two experiments separately to measure respiratory and cardiovascular data and SEFs. Both experiments consisted of a combination of normal and rapid respiratory rhythms and two inspiratory gas conditions (air and a hypercapnic gas); normal breathing with air (NB), rapid breathing with air (RB), normal breathing with the hypercapnic gas (NB+Gas), and rapid breathing with gas (RB+Gas). Partial pressures of end-tidal CO2 (PETCO2) increased during inhaling the hypercapnic gas and decreased during RB, but the RB+Gas condition continued to cause elevated PETCO2 compared with the baseline. Subsequently, middle cerebral artery blood (MCA) velocity using transcranial Doppler changed as well, while mean MCA velocity increased under the RB+Gas condition. The peak amplitude of the M60 component in SEFs was also significantly larger under with-gas than without-gas conditions, irrespective of the respiratory frequency. These results suggest that there is a close relationship between cerebral blood flow and neural activity of the M60 component in SEFs. This study provides evidence to further understanding on one of the neural mechanisms of hypercapnia., May 2023, 190, 29, 35, Scientific journal, True, 10.1016/j.neures.2022.11.007

  • 2021 IEEE INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS CONFERENCE (ITSC), IEEE, Robust Estimation of Thermal Sensation for Vehicle Occupants Using Seat-belt-type Sensor and Thermal Camera, Aki Yoneda; Shin-ichi Shikii; Ken-ichiro Nosaka; Mototaka Yoshioka; Hiroko Kubo, This study proposed a robust estimation of thermal sensation for vehicle occupants using seat-belt-type sensors and thermal cameras. The estimation of thermal sensation of a vehicle faces challenges, including the difficulty in measuring the clothing insulation value of vehicle occupants and influence of airflow from a car air conditioner. To obtain clothing insulation, we applied a dual-heat-flux method using two heat flux sensors mounted on a seat belt. To overcome the influence of airflow, we proposed a new air flow robust model by utilizing the clothing insulation value and skin temperature of the belt-type sensor, and the clothing surface temperature obtained by a thermal camera.The clothing insulation value estimated by the belt-type sensor showed good agreement with a T-shirt (0.39 clo) and sweatshirt (0.83 clo), with errors of 0.01 or less. An experiment with 11 subjects was also conducted in an environment with variable airflow that simulated a passenger compartment. The estimated thermal sensation showed high accuracy with subjective values (R=0.74, RMSE=1.19), compared to the conventional method (R=0.63, RMSE=1.36), and a significant difference was obtained using Student's t-test (t=4.49, p<0.01). Thus, the proposed method is likely to be employed for vehicle occupants in the future., 2021, 1572, 1577, International conference proceedings, 10.1109/ITSC48978.2021.9564715

    目的 エアコンの普及率は92.5%(2016年内閣府調べ)となり、熱中症を予防するうえでも適切な使用が望まれる一方で、冷房時にエアコン内部は結露しやすく、真菌汚染の被害を受けることがある。真菌はアレルギー疾患の原因となりうることが知られているが、近年、病原性のある好温性真菌も室内塵等から検出されている。そこで本研究では、エアコンの内部の一般真菌および好温性真菌による汚染状況を実測調査し、汚染度に影響する要因を検討する。

    方法 近畿圏の6件の住宅における19台のエアコンを調査対象とした。使用年数は2年から14年である。真菌の測定はふき取り法(Pro-mediaST-25,ELMEX)とし、吹出口と送風ファンからサンプリングした。25℃培養条件では、サンプルの汚れ度を目視評価して希釈倍率を調整し、0.5mlずつDG18培地の入ったシヤーレに接種、40℃培養条件ではサンプルをそのまま接種した。25℃条件の培養期間は7日から9日間、40℃条件は3日から4日とした。実測は2016年7月と10月に実施した。

    結果 一般真菌については、吹出口からは0~4,800cfu/㎠、送風ファンからは0~73,000cfu/㎠検出され、夏季、秋季ともに吹出口よりも送風ファンからの検出数が多かった。検出頻度が高かったのは、CladosporiumやPenicilliumであった。40℃条件では真菌数は少ないものの7台から、A.niger,A.fumigatus,A.flavus等が検出された。掃除機能の有無や埃の量、室内温熱環境、設置階数等と真菌数との関連性が確認された。
    本研究は文部科学省科学研究費補助金(基盤研究(C)課題番号15K00769)により実施した。

When considering the measurement instrument accuracy, the sensor factors affecting the temperature is temperature and heat radiation. The influence of the air velocity is low, the thermal radiation is large. Large thermal radiation measurement instruments in a large space such as a room can be used. In narrow inner and a complex space, the measurement of the heat balance is difficult. In this report, the measurement at one point of the space is considered. For example, a method of measuring a difference in thermal radiation at the position of the right cheek from the surrounding and from the cheek before of 2cm is considered. On the other hand, at the position of 1cm from the surface of the desk, the difference of the thermal radiation is measured. Heat flow from the surface of solid material and the convection heat flow and NET radiation were measured. In this report, thermal environmental elements were measured with Produced heat flow meter and Radiation Meter (Kajii, 1997). For measuring the convection and radiation, the New produced more small size NET radiation meter were used. It is effective for measurement heart analysis in narrow space., 16 Nov. 2015, 39, 173, 174

We conducted two surveys. We measured the physiological reaction for every season. When the elderly and the young did the same action in the same environment, we measured their physiological response. When the elderly and the young were exposed to a rapid temperature change, the change of skin temperature of the elderly was smaller than that of the young. While the elderly was relaxing, there was no big seasonal difference in the mean skin temperature. When the ambient air temperature of the elderly was high, the skin temperature of the arm became high. When it is hot, the outdoor activity of elderly needs to be careful., 16 Nov. 2015, 39, 149, 150

Data on the thermal environment were collected automatically by thermal recording devices, and data on thermal sensation, thermal comfort, room temperature evaluation, and acceptability were collected from 12 young and 12 elderly individuals during daily life in the summer (2012 or 2013). Regarding the physiological responses, skin temperature data (chest, forearm, thigh, and shin) were collected from all subjects. The mean ambient temperature of the elderly subjects was 31.5℃ at relaxation, which was approximately 2℃ higher than that of young individuals. Moreover, wet-bulb globe temperate values of more than 28℃ accounted for approximately 50%. Under high ambient temperature, the shin skin temperature tended to remain low in some elderly subjects; thus, a decline in the regulation of body temperature ability was confirmed. Appropriate environmental control behavior, including using air-conditioning and clothing insulation adjustment, is needed in elderly individuals., 16 Nov. 2015, 39, 147, 148

Eight young men and eight young women took part in as subjects. All subjects were exposed to four different conditions in a climate chamber, which adjusted the temperatures to 16, 19, 22 and 25 degrees Celsius, as indoor temperatures in winter. In 16℃ and 25℃ environments, they experienced two levels of activity (sedentary and bicycling for 5 minutes), and two levels of clothing: normal (0.92clo) and heavily (1.41clo) in a 16℃ environment, and normal (0.92clo) and lightly (0.54clo) in a 25℃ environment. Both on men and on women, mean skin temperatures in the afternoon were higher than those of in the morning. Men's mean skin temperature was higher than that of women, both in the morning and in the afternoon. Thermal sensation votes were linearly-related to SET*, but for when heavily clothed in the morning and in the afternoon. When heavily clothed, women's thermal sensation votes were plotted under the regression line, which suggested women felt cold in their feet, for only the clothing value of upper body was the difference between normal clothing and heavily clothing., 20 Nov. 2014, 38, 277, 280

Subjects were 8 females and 8 males and their ages were between 19 and 29. Thermal sensations on sedentary state with clothing of 0.92 do were voted every 10 minutes during 40 minutes on each level of four ambient temperatures (16℃, 19℃, 22℃, 25℃). At the same time, surface thermal distributions of four aspects (forth, back, left, right) of each subject were recorded by using an infrared thermo camera. Furthermore, to evaluate the influence of clothing, conditions of 1.41clo at 16℃ and 0.54clo at 25℃ were added. These experiments were conducted around March. From our analyses, we found the thermal sensation shows a strong correlation with heat loss estimated from each thermal image, and this relationship is independent of the clothing. From these results, we think thermal images have the potential of non-contact thermal sensation estimation irrespective of clothing., 20 Nov. 2014, 38, 281, 284

Since the temperature change through year in semi-basement is small, the thermal environment is comfortable. However there is a tendency for humidity to become high in a summer. We have reported the relation between seasonal variation, or use of a dehumidifier and the concentration changes of fungi. In the measuring object residence, modification with wood on a part of surface of the wall was performed; we measured to assess the effect on fungal concentration. As a result, the wall temperature difference became small and the downward tendency of adhered fungal concentrations was seen at the remodeled surface of a wall., 20 Nov. 2014, 38, 71, 72

Air temperature, humidity, globe temperature and air velocity were continuously recorded and several skin temperatures, the microclimate temperature and humidity inside the clothing of human subjects were monitored. Thermal and comfort sensations were evaluated at the interval of 10 minutes. The SET* values were calculated based on measurements results and comparison was conducted for values for different seasons.
    The variations in the thermal environment according to the season, time, and type of room had influenced the physiological and psychological responses of the subjects. SET* values obtained from the correlation ship with thermo neutral sensation were 25°C and 28°C in the winter and the summer, respectively. Mean skin temperature which strongly correlated with thermo neutral sensation was 33°C and 35.5°C in the winter and the summer, respectively. The comfortable zone was found to range from 24°CSET* to 29°C SET* and from 25.5°CSET* to 30°CSET* in the winter and the summer, respectively. These determined ranges of SET* values were higher than the comfortable SET* variations in the ASHRAE standard 55-2004. The difference might be considered to occur due to young female subjects and could possibly also originate in clod floor in the winter season or the air velocity in the summer season., 2011, 76, 663, 479, 484, 10.3130/aije.76.479

The subjects were seven young women who preferred middle air temperatures (=M) and seven young women who preferred higher air temperatures (=H). Differences in the means skin temperature were not found to be significant between M and H in summer. However, H felt significantly colder and more uncomfortable than M during the periods of decreasing air temperature and 25-C. In winter the forearm and calf skin temperatures of H were significantly higher than that of M at 25-C. However, H felt colder and more uncomfortable than M during the periods of decreasing air temperature and 25-C., 2010, 34, 243, 246

This survey focused on the effects of changing thermal condition by air-conditioning onphysiological and psychological responses during nocturnal sleep in winter. Seven healthy female subjects volunteered for 8hours nocturnal sleep survey at own house. There were three conditions as control to daily habit (first night), two differentconditions using air-conditioning timer (2 hour off-timer after bedtime and 2 hour on-timer before arise time). We werecontinuously recorded bedside temperature, relative humidity and bed climate as thermal environments, skin temperature,core temperature, heart rate, body movement and so on as physiological responses during sleep. Subjective evaluations onsleep and environment were evaluated with thermal sensation vote, thermal comfort vote and OSA sleeping questionnaire.The results showed that 2hour off-timer influenced decreasing skin temperature, rectal temperature and heart rate onhypnagonic. When these physiological responses change over equilibrium, there were not different form conditions. Bedclimate affected thermal sensation and comfort vote more than using air-conditioning. OSA didn't have significance., 2010, 34, 159, 162

These surveys were carried out several times from 1997 to 2009. The formaldehyde concentrations were reducing year by year, however the symptoms rate weren't reducing equally. As well as interior materials, it was speculated that lifestyle such as furniture we use or the ventilation habit influenced indoor formaldehyde levels and symptoms of residents., 2010, 34, 87, 90

The air temperature and humidity at the six places ((1)Living room(LR), (2)Bedroom(BR), (3)Toilet, (4)Kitchen, (5)Dressing room(DR), (6)Hallway) were measured to consider its thermal environment overall. At the same time, each resident reported the thermal sensation vote, the thermal comfort vote and so on as the psychological response in each place. The results were as follows: The habit for heating hours, heating items, etc. was a really full of variety. The air temperature at each place in each house distributed wildly. The clothing insulation among the residents was higher with lower air temperature. The residents felt the comfortable feeling around 18-C at heated LR, whereas they felt the comfortable feeling around 14-C at No-heated Toilet. The difference of air temperature (at LR- at No-heated place) showed a significant correlation with the difference of thermal comfort vote (at LR- at No-heated place). The average air temperature of comfortable feeling at every place was upper area in the thermal neutral zone. Each thermal neutral zone in Toilet and DR by residents' evaluation distributed to much lower air temperature from the recommended air temperature in thermal environment though it was acceptable well by the residents., 2010, 34, 83, 86

The water volumes and temperatures in the bathtub and from the shower faucet, the time spent in the bathtub and in showering, and their subjective responses (thermal sensation and comfort) were obtained The water volumes in the bathtub and from the shower faucet for the male subjects were higher than those of the female subjects. The water temperatures in the bathtub for the male subjects were higher and those from the shower faucet were lower than those of the female subjects. However, the time spent in the bathtub and in showering was longer for the female subjects than it was for the male subjects. The subjective thermal sensation and comfort in summer changed from hot and uncomfortable, or cool and comfortable when undressing prior to bathing into warm and comfortable during bathing, and changed from cold and uncomfortable into warm and comfortable in winter. There was a strong correlation between the water volume from the shower faucet and showering time, with the water volume per unit of time presumed to be larger for the male subjects., 2006, 30, 69, 72

Nine female college-age subjects were given 120 minutes to select their preferred ambient temperatures. Subjects were sedentary and clothed (0.4 clo). Skin, oral and rectal temperatures were recorded, and heart rate, blood pressure, thermal comfort and thermal sensations were also measured for the duration of the experiment The findings of this study were compared with results obtained using the same subjects in summer. Subjects preferred higher air temperatures in winter, and there was a correlation between preferred air temperature in winter and in summer. Subjects with low mean skin temperatures at an ambient temperature of 28℃ in the pretest room preferred high air temperatures. Interestingly, subjects with low abdominal and instep skin temperatures preferred relatively higher air temperatures. In winter, subjects reported feeling warm' at the same temperature in summer., 2006, 30, 97, 100

Symposium on Human-Environment System, Japanese Society of Human-Environment System, The Effect of Room Temperatures Before and During Bathing, on Bathing Time Physiological and Psychological Responses in Winter, TSUMOTO Miwa; KUBO Hiroko; ISODA Norio; YAGI Yasuko, The effect of room temperatures in winter, both before and during bathing, on bathing time and physiological and psychological responses was evaluated using 9 young female subjects. The subjects were exposed to 3 test conditions: COLD (17℃ room temperatures both before and during bathing) WARM-COLD (25℃ room temperature before bathing. I7℃ room temperature during bathing),WARM (25℃ room temperatures both before and during bathing). After sitting quietly in the pre-room for 40minetes, the subjects were moved to the bathing room, and immersed in warm water ( 40℃) up to their chest. The subjects were instructed to get out of the bath when they felt adequately warm. Bathing time, skin and rectal temperatures, blood pressure, heart rate, thermal sensation and comfort were all recorded The result as follows: Skin temperatures were lowest before bathing and bathing time was longest under the COLD condition. The tendency was found for bathing time to increase when the skin temperature on the back of the hand before bathing was low Skin temperatures during and after bathing were lowest in order of COLD < WARM-COLD < WARM conditions. The increase in rectal temperature during bathing was slow under the COLD condition. Therefore we considered that the room temperature before bathing exerted a large influence in this experiment., 2006, 30, 237, 240

Ten collegiate female subjects were exposed to airflow in twenty types. Air velocity of fluctuating airflow counted for 0〜0.8m/s (mean 0.3m/s) and air velocity of uniform airflow for 0.3m/s. Air temperature was kept constant at 28℃. Relative humidity was kept constant at 50%. Two fans were located before and behind the sedentary subjects. The subjects were measured for the skin temperatures, and they were asked about thermal sensation, thermal comfort and evaluation of airflow. The skin temperatures fell at many parts which were exposed to airflow, and there is statistically some significant differences. The dispersion of general thermal sensation votes was small. The most numerous reports in general thermal sensation were "0:neutral" at any condition. The airflow which blew longer from before than behind obtained higher comfort sensation vote., 2004, 29, 93, 97, 103, 10.18948/shase.29.93_97

Experiments were conducted in summer under 60 kinds of the following conditions : four air temperatures (25℃, 27.5℃, 30℃ and 32.5℃), six types of localized airflow (a uniform airflow, four oscillating airflow and a randomly fluctuating airflow reproducing a natural wind) with average velocity of 1.0m/s and three airflow temperatures (equal to, 5℃ and 10℃ lower than room air temperature). The comfortable zone of combined air temperature and airflow temperature became narrow and shifted to high room temperature and high airflow temperature according to the increase of maximum airflow velocity., 1997, 62, 492, 31, 37, 10.3130/aija.62.31_2

The results were as follows: 1)Odor emission rate (OER) increased in proportion to garbage surface area. We obtained OEU with OER per area of garbage. 2) The maximum value of OEU was 1.1×10^2 (m^3/cm^2/h) with the airtight type and 1.0×10^2 (m^3/cm^2/h) with the ventilated type. 3) Previously we showed that the acceptable level of garbage odor was about 10 with odor concentration. We could estimate ventilation requirement for garbage odor by OEU and the odor concentration of acceptable level. In conclusion an enormous amount of ventilation needed to control the garbage odor below the acceptable level in the kitchen., 1996, 61, 486, 35, 41, 10.3130/aija.61.35_4

    The following results were obtained :
    1) During the day in summer, the skin temperatures on the aged are lower than that of college students, but at night those of the aged are higher. 2) During the day in winter, the chest temperatures of the aged are lower than those of students. The foot skin temperatures of aged are, however, higher, especially among men. That is because of the use of Kotatu.
    3) In winter, the chest skin temperatures of the aged are the same as those recorded in summer, because most of them use electric blankets when sleeping.
    4) During ambient temperatures are greater than 27°C, chest skin temperatures of aged women is harder to increase than those of female college students, but when ambient temperatures fall bellow 17°C they go down more.
    5) As results of considering the relationship between skin temperature and thermal sensation, it was found that insensitiveness increases by aging, and it is more significant in winter., 15 Jun. 1995, 46, 6, 587, 596, 10.11428/jhej1987.46.587

    The following results were obtained from this survey :
    1) The summer night time ambient room temperature encountered by many aged people is very high, approaching daytime temperatures.
    2) Due to lack of heating, the winter night time ambient room temperature is strongly influenced by the outside temperature.
    3) Aged women generally wear lighter clothing than aged men. Most aged women pass their time in rooms with temperatures lower than the standard winter time temperature.
    4) This survey suggests the following ranges of comfortable daytime room temperatures for the aged : 25-29°C for summer and 20-25°C for winter., 15 May 1995, 46, 5, 455, 464, 10.11428/jhej1987.46.455

The ambient temperature and the temperature at three points on the skin surface of about 50 elderly persons and 40 young persons were measured with a compact thermorecorder and a questionnaire concerning their daily lives was obtained, as well as clo-values and thermal sensation preferences. Their activities were surveyed in summer and winter. The young people, mainly college students, were the control group, and subjects live in six different districts. This first paper reports on the analysis of the effects of residential conditions and air-conditioning control on daily life.
    The results are as follows :
    1) A seasonal difference has been demonstrated in the usage time for air-conditioning. The aged use air conditioners more of the time than college students in winter and less of the time than college students in summer.
    2) In summer, for the aged and college students, there has been shown to be a high correlation between the usage time for air-conditioning and degree-day. For high values of degreeday, difference in usage times for the aged and college students is great.
    3) A high correlation has been found between clo-values and latitude for aged and college students. Clo-values are generally higher for persons who live in high latitudes and are higher for the aged than for college students.
    4) For the aged, a high correlation was noted between clo-value and thermal sensation preference in the daytime in winter. When the aged voted “neutral, ” the clo-value was 1. 8.
    5) For the aged, high correlations have been found between fatigue and other aspects of fatigue like health, energy, conditions in hot or cold climates and the aged generally experience weakness in cold climates in summer and winter., 15 May 1995, 46, 5, 447, 454, 10.11428/jhej1987.46.447

The experiments are conducted in a climate chamber, using 19 to 80-year-old male and female subjects wearing summer cloths (0.4clo) sit on a chair for 80 minutes including 60 minutes of air flow exposure. The combination of ambient temperatures and air velocities used are 28°C and 0.4m/s, 32°C and 1.2m/s, respectively. At the same environment, the mean skin temperatures of old subjects (over 60 years old) are lower than those of young (under 40 years old) and middle aged (from 40 to 60 years old) subjects in mean average of 0.2-0.8°C. The old subjects feel cooler and more comfortable than young or middle aged subjects. The drop in skin temperature of the chest becomes greater with advancing age. On the contrary, at the shin the drop becomes smaller. This indicates that the old people decrease in ability to control the skin temperature of cutaneous vasoconstriction of their extremities., 1995, 31, 2, 161, 168, 10.5100/jje.31.161

The survey included measurements of air temperature, relative humidity and globe temperature in the kitchen, temperature and odor sensor value at the place of garbage storage. Housewives were questioned aubot the time used for household work in the kitchen, storage conditions of garbage, odor sensation (odor intensity, unpleasantness, quality of odor and tolerance). We measured odors using two kinds of odor sensors. One of them responds to the odor of hydrogen sulfide, and its measured value is correlated to evaluations of odor sensation. The length of time when the odor sensor value exceeded the acceptable level of garbage odor in the kitchen was influenced considerably by the storage time of the garbage and the state of storage container. The total length of time exceeding the acceptable level was about one third of the period measured for the house as a whole., 1995, 2, 1, 67, 74, 10.24538/jhesj.2.1_67

We experimented with "odor bag method" and "entering room method" in this study. We used the garbage sample of mixed vegetables, fruit, fish and tea leaves stored at 30℃ for three days. 0n "odor bag method", we measured odor concentration by organoleptic test, and odor substance concentration by gas chromatograph and some detection tubes. The subjects voted odor intensity, unpleasantness and acceptance of odor on both experiments. The results were as follows: 1) Concerning the acceptable level, there is no statistically significant difference between "odor bag method" and "entering room method". 2) The acceptable level of indoor garbage odor with odor concentraion is 6.9 by "odor bag method" and 11 by "entering room method". 3)We can evaluate the acceptable level of indoor garbage odor by methylmercaptan concentration in the sample air., 1995, 60, 475, 35, 40, 10.3130/aija.60.35_3

Also this paper attempts to clarify the characteristics and problems associated with it. For the purpose, we conducted surveys among 900 residents of western Japan during both winter and summer, the residents arranged with three age groups.
    The main results are as follows :
    1) In the summer, the most popular cooling systems are air conditioners among young and middle-aged people, and electric fans among old people over 60.
    2) In the winter, the heating mechanism most commonly used are unvented burning heaters among the middle and old people, and “kotatsu” -style heating among those under 40.
    3) In the summer, the choice of a cooling system by older people are determined by individual constitution and the body mass index. In the winter, choice of a heating system is affected more by the age of the dwelling or family composition than by constitutional needs., 1995, 46, 11, 1091, 1100, 10.11428/jhej1987.46.1091

The experiments were conducted in climate chambers. Air temperatures were 16℃, 20℃, 24℃, 28℃, 32℃ and relative humidity was 50%. Air velocity was still air (<0.15m/s), and mean radiant temperature was equal to air temperature. Subjects were 71 healthy college aged females. They did some sedentary works in casual wear which they were dressed in, and after the experiment do value was calculated. The subjects were exposed to different conditions for 60 minutes. The subjects were asked to report thermal sensation on the 9 category scale and thermal comfort on the 7 category scale. The experiments were conducted seven times from October 1986 to August 1987. The results were as follows: 1) The mean do values of the subjects were about 0.84 clo in winter and 0.4 clo in summer. 2) The air temperatures that the subjects reported to be under thermal neutral conditions were 22℃ in winter and 28℃ in summer. 3) The range of air temperatures that they reported to be comfortable conditions were from 20℃ to 28℃ in winter and from 22℃ to 30℃ in summer. Thus they felt warm (atatakai) in winter and cool (suzushii) in summer., 1994, 1, 1, 51, 57, 10.24538/jhesj.1.1_51

To determine their comfortable thermal environment the male subjects of youth and elder controlled the air velocity so that they feel thermal environment comfortable. We measured their physiological and psychological responses and compared the results with the past experiments which were done with young and elderly female subjects. We carried out experiments in a climate chamber testing simultaneously two subjects. We set up two fan apparatus which were able to regulate the air velocity. The air temperatures were set at 28, 30, 32℃ for the elderly and 26, 28, 30℃ for the young subjects. The mean radiant temperature was equal to the air temperature. The subjects sat on a chair during the experiments in summer clothes (0.4clo). The subjects regulated the air velocities at will so as to feel comfortable at any time. The number of subjects were 10 active elderly and 8 healthy young men. The main results were as follows: 1) The mean skin temperature became higher as the air temperature rose. In the same air temperature, mean skin temperature of the elderly male was lower than of the young male in 0.3〜0.6℃. 2) Before being exposed to air movement, the higher the air temperature became, the higher the thermal sensation vote. The thermal sensation vote after the exposure of the air movement became cooler by the air movement. But the elderly male's reports differed according to the air temperature. 3) Like the young male, the elderly male didn't change the air velocities so that heat flow rate at the forehead and the thermal sensation vote became the same level. It shows that the elderly's physiological function declined and thermal sensation became more insensible. 4) The average of the preferred air velocities at each air temperature were 0.41m/s at 28℃, 0.80m/s 30℃ and 1.08m/s at 32℃ for the elderly male, and 0.46m/s at 26℃, 0.84m/s at 28℃, and 1.37m/s at 30℃ for the young male. In each air temperature the elderly preferred slower air movement than the young, and as the air temperature rose by 2℃ the air velocities became faster by 0.4〜0.5m/s in each age group. 5) Compared with the elderly female's preferred air velocities of the elderly male were slower. It is considered that daily living customs or consciousnesses influence to the preferred air velocities., 1994, 19, 56, 69, 76, 10.18948/shase.19.56_69

The air temperatures were 26°C, 28°C and 30°C, and the relative humidities were 30 %, 50 % and 80 %. The subjects were 10 healthy women sedentary in summer wear, who could regulate air velocity for 60 minutes according to their feeling of comfort. The results were as follows : (1) Increase in air temperature and humidity was compensated by increase in air velocity. (2) At the preferred air velocity, the subjects reported "slightly cool", and "comfortable". (3) At 26°C and 28°C, the preferred air velocity was faster than the air velocity predicted by SET* and Fanger's comfort equation., 1992, 442, 0, 9, 16, 10.3130/aijax.442.0_9

In this report, in order to measure the thermal sensation of elderly people living in high temperature room, we conducted experiments to measure thermal sensation and thermal comfort etc. in the laboratory and in climate chamber. The participants were 9 male and 9 female elderly people who took part in house thermal environments measurements. In the case of climate camber and laboratory, they reported that the higher the room temperature was, the hotter the thermal sensation was on the hot side, the thermal comfort became the unpleasant side. On the other hand, the relationship between living room temperature and thermal sensation varied greatly in the their living room. There was not much relation with living room temperature.

The participants were 9 frail elderly (aged 79.1 ± 6.1 years). We measured activity levels during the daytime and body movement during sleep. Air temperature and relative humidity were measured in the participants’ bedrooms. Approximately 80% of the participants had turned off heating devices such as air conditioners and stoves before going to bed. Some participants used only hot water bottles and electric blankets during sleep to warm up their bed. Therefore, the temperature and humidity in the bedroom tend to be lower than the recommended standard bedroom climate conditions for a healthy life (18-22°C, 30-50%: the criteria of thermal environment in house by workshop of thermal environment for elderly life in 1991). The number of wake after sleep onset and the wake rate during sleep increased as the bedroom temperature decreased. It suggests that low bedroom temperature may lead to decline in the quality of sleep. Furthermore, the participants went to bathroom feeling cold at night. It’s important to eliminate the temperature difference in the house to prevent heat shock.

Data were collected from 48 elderly and 41 young participants from 2012 to 2015 during the summer. Ambient air temperatures during daytime for the elderly participants tended to be high; a lower percentage of elderly than young participants used air-conditioners. Improvements in conditions for many elderly participants were not sufficient to prevent heatstroke despite receiving feedback based on their own data. Based on the results of this study, interventional surveys conducted in 2016 and 2018 to lead better environmental controls and improve behaviors for elderly individuals.

We found that elderly persons tended to live in hotter and more humid environments than younger persons. Variations in skin temperature appeared to differ between young and elderly persons because of a decrease in the ability to regulate body temperature with age. In addition, sleep quality decreased among elderly persons who live in hot environments, indicating that environmental regulation needs to be improved among the elderly. Providing intervention in the form of physiological information about heatstroke prevention as well as tools for visualizing the thermal environment conferred some improvements. Changes in preventive awareness by interventions differed among individuals, suggesting a relationship with experience of heatstroke., kaken

Nasal region of healthy subjects was exposed to non-odorant, plywood, and cedar timbers that dehydration temperature and/or production region were different. Regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in prefrontal cortex and electroencephalogram (EEG) were simultaneously measured. Result indicated the activation of rCBF significantly increased in plywood that emission of formaldehyde were the highest. The result suggested the plywood acted as irritation to nose of the subjects. Cedar timber that were produced at middle dehydration temperature rather than lower and higher temperature, showed good responses in human brain imaging both rCBF and EEG. This suggests the subjects received irritation and discomfort from timber of lower dehydration temperature because the emission of total volatile organic compound was the highest at natural air-dried timber., kaken_url;kaken

Data on the thermal environment collected automatically by thermal recording devices, and thermal sensation, thermal comfort, room temperature evaluation, acceptability, and activity were collected from young and elderly individuals in summer. Regarding physiological responses, skin temperature data were collected from some subjects. Furthermore, we conducted a questionnaire survey about knowledge of heat disorders, measures taken to prevent heat disorders, and daily living habits to analyze differences between generations. The results were given as feedback to each elderly individual and additional information about prevention of heat disorders was also offered after the investigations. Some advantages of these interventions were confirmed, but limitations were also identified.

The research findings are as follows: 1. The household structures in Bamyan are classified into there categories: the nuclear family, the joint family and the compound household. The overall system is basically patrilineal and patrilocal. Nuclear families maintain an extended kinship network in the community. The family system is basically patrilinial and patrilocal. 2. There are two main social groups in Bamyan, the Hazaras and the Sayyeds, between which there are wide social, economic and cultural disparities. 3. Strategies in child education in family differ by both social groups and gender. School attendance rate are lower for The Hazaras than for the Sayyeds, and lower for girls than for boys. 4. There is clear gender segregation and role division. Because the infrastructure is not yet developed in Bamyan, there is a great deal of housework for women and children, especially daughters. 5. Afghan Refugees in Iran form Afghan communities to minimize discrimination from Iranians. 6. Though Afghan refugees in Iran have restricted access to work and education, their living standards are higher than those of Afghanistan. 7. The Iranian government has been promoting a repatriation policy for Afghan refugees, while increasing economic supports to Afghans. 8. The Iranian government has been restricting the schools for Afghan refugees, so that they are forced to close and move. Since the schools do not get any support, they face difficult problems. 9.

The subjects sat on a chair during the experiments in summer clothes (0.4clo). Experiment 2: exposure to established air temperature (23℃, 25℃, 31℃, 33℃). The subjects were exposed to established air temperature for 60 minutes. We explained the effect of established thermal environment on physiological and psychological responses. On Experiment 2, 19 subjects were extracted from Experiment 1. By these experiments, we determine an extant of comfort temperatures for the elderly that has several preferred temperatures in summer. The results were as follows; Preferred air temperature were from 24.4℃ to 29.3℃. The average of preferred air temperature was 27℃, and standard deviation of mat was 1.3℃. On that conditions, almost subjects voted 'comfortable'-'very comfortable'. But under 25℃, some elderly cooled their core temperatures a little, and their heart rate declined. This indicates that the elderly decrease in ability to control the skin temperature., kaken

In our investigation, we principally conducted oral interviews and observation in house visits, and made photographic records. In conducting investigations, we were divided into groups according to each one's specialty, such as families, genders, cloth-ing, dietary culture, and living environments. In order to comprehend the situation of the region, we invited the cooperation of teachers of secondary school and Xinjian University, instructors of museums and foreign students of Uygur people. We report about the following contents of our investigation about which we have formed a viewpoint. 1)Children's education 2)Ordinary lives and Religious lives like Ramadan 3)Expression of costumes as Muslim 4)Traditional customs and their changes in Family relations and lives. Main problems of school-education are that the high school attendance rate has declined and that students who are not able to go to school have been increased. In particular, among the poor farmers' households that account for 80% of the region, parents do not have higher expectations for their children, thus they prevent their children from going to school. Their main agent of child-rearing is the mother. Mothers raise children by receiving sufficient support from relatives, especially their own mothers. Uygur people maintain the culture of gender division of domestic labor. Particularly Muslims maintain a strong patriarchal system so that their educational expectations for daughters are lower compared to sons., kaken

We aimed to conduct investigations on the actual conditions of Uygur women and their lives. Because the population of Uygur people is the largest among the forty-seven minor ethnic groups in the region. In conducting investigations, we were divided into groups according to each one's specialty, such as families, gender, clothing, dietary culture and living environments, and we decided to compare a city and its surrounding area (a rural community), tradition and changes, and South Xinjiang and North Xinjiang. In order to comprehend the situation of the region, we invited the cooperation of researchers in the Center for Research on Women at Xinjiang University as our counterparts. In 2000, we visited Urumchi and Turfan, and investigated the roles of the female staff of educational organizations, differences in the lives among typical ethnic groups, the labor of women who engaged in traditional industries, their tasks at home. In 2001, we visited Kashgar and Hotan, recorded the conditions of deeply religious lives connected with Islamic culture, and conducted a study on them. In 2002, in order to compare lives in South Xinjiang and North Xinjiang, we visited Yining, adjacent to Russia (the former Soviet Union) and investigated mostly farmers' lives. As a result, we witnessed remarkable affluence due to trade with Russia and other regions, and westernized freedom for various aspects, of then-lives, such as their home interiors and preferences for doming, unlike South Xinjiang. As the results of our comparison between the city and its surrounding area, and South Xinjiang and North Xinjiang, it was learned that close family relations common among Uygur people continued, but religious characteristics changed drastically in some regions. There were also problems, such as difficulty in the coexistence of international aspects with ethnical aspects., kaken
