  • Development of Nursing Students' Self-Affirmation through Participation as a Camp Staff Member in a Work-study Program.
    (37) 42-46 Mar. 2011
    This paper examines how nursing students built up their self-affirmation throughparticipation in a work-study program. Lack of self-affirmation is common to manynursing students， especially those who have mental or physical problems. In order todevelop nursing students' self-affirmation through active learning， “St.Luke's Camp“for parents and children was started in 2004， where nursing students workand study as staff members and play an important role. Through the reports writtenby the nursing students in the program， it was found that experiences which helpthem feel that they are“a person of importance“ or “a person of value“， are importantfor their self-affirmation， and that this work-study program offered them much-neededopportunities to increase their self-affirmation.

  • A Study Exploring Elements Interfering with Good Health Practice -From the Comparison of the Results Obtained through Brainstorming by College Students Majoring Nursing and Home Science -
    Sakurai Shinobu, Kikuta Fumio
    (19) 47-55 Mar. 1993
    Nowadays， it is generally considered in the field of medicine and health care where most people take the promotion and improvement in their health for granted that health education is deeply concerned with the promotion and improvement of general health and disease prevention and is indispensable for that purpose.Traditional health education has been usually conducted in a pedagogical way， which only provides information， by didactic or one-sided lectures， which education has shown little effect on adult diseases which have no remarkable symptoms. Therefore， this study has been conducted in order to identify the reason why people do not， or cannot， implement health practice based on the opinions of the female nursing and home science college students obtained through their brainstorming and the common elements in those opinions drawn by KJ-method.Furthermore， two groups are compared for the purpose of identifying the difference seen between those who are engaged in health service and these who are not. The results are shown as follows:1.The data of both groups showed that lack of external environmental factors(money， time)， their pleasure-oriented sense of value

  • DIFFERENCES OF MEASUREMENT VALUES BETWEEN THE RIGHT AND LEFT FEET IN JAPANESE ADULTS
    F KIKUTA, S KONDO, A OTSUKA, S TAKAHASHI
    JOURNAL OF THE ANTHROPOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF NIPPON 100(4) 511-525 Oct. 1992 [Refereed]
    The dimensional differences between the right (R) and left (L) feet were investigated in each pair of 26 measurement items in Japanese adults (149 males and 178 females). The standard value of bilateral differences was determined, taking into consideration of the standard deviation of the bilateral difference (right minus left) in each item and variance calculated by the nested analysis of variance. The measurement error variance amounted to 25% approximately 40% of total variance in males and 30% approximately 50% in females. The frequency of subjects without bilateral difference was about 17% in males and about 74% in females for foot length, about 53% both in males and females for foot width, and about 45% both in males and females for ball-joint girth. Fifteen % of males had the most frequent pattern of L>R in foot length and L=R both in foot width and ball-joint girth, while 17% of females had the most frequent pattern of L=R in these three measurements. With respect to the foot girth measurements, 12% of males had the most frequent pattern of L=R in ball-joint and waist girths and L>R in instep girth, while 16% of females had the most frequent pattern of L=R in these three measurements.
  • The Secular Trend of Standing Height in Adolescent Girls from Longitudinal Data.

    (18) 31-35 1992
    In this study which is based on the longitudinal data aggregated from health examination records， the subjects consist of 287 girls who attended a private school in Tokyo.The subjects are divided into five groups according to birth year from 1950 to 1970 in order to find secular trend during twenty years with oneway analysis of variance.Age at Peak Height Velocity(APHV)， Peak Height Velocity(PHV) and Height attained at Peak Height Velocity(HPHV) were computed in each height velocity curve derived from differential calculus of height distance curve. The result show that HPHV is gradually getting taller by year although APHV and PHV do not change.It may be considered that our subjects of the private school are girls of families in the relatively upper-middle class.

  • Evaluation of the Revised Curriculum by Three Graduating Classes (1999-2001)
    (28) 39-49 Mar. 2002
    In 1995 a revised curriculum was implemented at St.Luke's College of Nursing， beginning with first year students. Changed aspects included promoting self-learning ability and integrated learning， and sequencing of curriculum subjects. Evaluations were obtained from students from the first three classes to experience the new curriculum.An evaluation questionnaire was given and collected on the day before graduation day. Students responded to questions about the relation between a senior-level course called “Integrated Nursing ･ Nursing ResearchⅡ“ and the already completed subjects， the sequencing of subjects in the curriculum， satisfaction level and evaluation of classes， educational system and educational support.Four major findings were identified. ① That students identified the relevance of many courses for “Integrated Nursing ･ NursingResearchⅡ“ was interpreted as confirming the integrity of the curriculum.②The revised curriculum put general educational subjects in the first year in light of their importance as a foundation for nursing but evaluations from students indicated that they hoped for nursing subjects from the first year. The problem fo
  • Evaluation of the 1994 Revised Curriculum by Graduating Senior Students of St.Luke's College of Nursing， Class of 1999， after Completion of the Baccalaureate Program.
    (26) 133-143
    This report identifies levels of student satisfaction with the revised curriculum(begun in 1995)， as well as their satisfaction with the arrangement of subjects and the correlation among them.A survey by questionnaire was conducted just before graduation using 57 graduating seniors as subjects.The content of the questionnaire included the following:(1)what subjects contributed to their writing the paper for Comprehensive Nursing/Nursing Research II;(2)what was the degree of satisfaction with the curriculum and reason(s);and (3)how did the students assess the classes taken， the educational facilities and equipment.The 10 question items were selected from the survey done in 1997 by Bennese Bunkyosoken(Educational Survey Corporation)The results were:(1)the subjects studied significantly contributed to writing the Comprehensive Nursing/Nursing Research II(graduation paper);(2)the correlation between each subject taken and the Comprehensive Nursing/Nursing Research II was significantly strong;(3)the degree of student satisfaction with the entire curriculum was approximately 80%;and(4)the student responses concerning overall satisfaction with the classes in the program as well as the
  • Curriculum Evaluation at St.Luke's College of Nursing.
    (26) 123-132
    An integrated nursing curriculum was newly implemented at St.Luke's College of Nursing in Tokyo， Japan， in April 1995.Upon implementation， curriculum committee decided to evaluate the effects of the new curriculum.The conceptual framework for evaluating the curriculum consisting of the learner， teacher， curriculum， and the setting along with a systems model was used as an oganizing framework.The data from the freshmen was gathered by questionnaire as input data.For the process evaluation， the course evaluation by students using a questionnaire was implemented upon completion of each courses.The course evaluation by all the faculty members was also done.For the output evaluation， the questionnaires were written by students one day before the graduation day， to measure their satisfaction for the overall curriculum and their competency level along with the characteristics of the graduates at St.Luke's College of Nursing. Several efforts have been made to lead curriculum evaluation for success such as the involvement of all the full time faculty members in the analysis of the data， faculty development seminars to understand integrated curriculum and the curriculum
