高等学校における校内カフェについての調査報告:教職員のカフェに対する認識及びスタッフの交代について

奈良女子大学心理臨床研究 第12号 研究論文本稿は，本学大学院臨床心理学コースの院生らが，教育現場での実習の一環としてA高等学校で運営する校内カフェにおいて実施した調査についての報告である。研究Ⅰでは生徒らの「居場所」として開室された「COCOROカフェ」に対して，A高校の教職員がどのような認識を持っているのかについて明らかにするため，質問紙調査を行った。その結果，教職員らの多くが，COCOROカフェを“生徒らが安心して他者と交流できる居場所”として捉え，悩みを抱える生徒が心の内を吐き出せる場として活用することを想定していることが明らかとなった。その一方で，「よく分からない」と感じている教職員も一定数いることが分かった。さらに研究Ⅱでは，カフェに継続して来室している生徒にとって，半期に一度行われるスタッフの交代がどのような体験となっているのかを明らかにするため，インタビュー調査を実施した。その結果，スタッフの交代に際しては，生徒らに「悲観的反応」や「後任者への否定的反応」が生じていることが明らかとなった。一方で，「後任者への素直な受容」や「後任者の肯定的な受容」も生じていることが確認された。departmental bulletin pape

幾何平均的な最大作用素の古典的ロレンツ空間における有界性の条件について

The purpose of this paper is to give a limiting case of Arino-Muckenhoupt's results (1990). That is, we consider the conditions for the boundedness of the geometric mean maximal operator on classical Lorentz spaces. Firstly, we state Hardy's inequality for the arithmetic and geometric means. We note that the inequality for the geometric means can be regarded as the limiting case of the inequality for the arithmetic means. We also state one of the results of Arino-Muckenhoupt as follows: For the usual Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator to be bounded on classical Lorentz spaces, it is necessary and sufficient that the weighted Hardy inequality for the arithmetic means holds for non-increasing functions. Secondly, we would like to consider a limiting case of this result. In this case, we use the geometric mean maximal operator introduced by Shi instead of the usual Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator. Then, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the operator to be bounded on classical Lorentz spaces, respectively. However, these conditions are not equivalent, so we cannot say that the result is an analogy of Arino-Muckenhoupt's result itself. This is because there is a difference in the parameters associated with the function spaces between the necessary and sufficient conditions. Filling this difference and considering other approaches will be a future challenge. In addition, in the proof of theorems and lemmas, we will consider the logarithm of the functions, but we must always be careful that the sign of the logarithm changes depending on whether the value of the function is greater than or less than one.departmental bulletin pape

Characterization of function spaces with dominating mixed smoothness by Pandey-Upadhyay's wavelet transform

The aim of the paper is to give a characterization of function spaces with dominating mixed smoothness by using Pandey-Upadhyay's wavelet transform. In our previous paper, Pandey-Upadhyay's wavelet transform was used to consider microlocal Sobolev singularities of functions. It would be natural to expand the scope of application of Pandey-Upadhyay's wavelet transform from Sobolev spaces to function spaces with dominating mixed smoothness, but first we use this wavelet transform to characterize the function spaces themselves. That is, we give a global characterization of the function spaces with dominating mixed smoothness.departmental bulletin pape

Subminimal Inhibitory Concentrations of Antibiotics and Anaerobic Conditions Promote Escherichia coli Cell-to-Cell Plasmid Transformation in Biofilms

In recent years, subminimal inhibitory concentrations (sub-MIC) of antibiotics have been found to exert unexpected physiological effects on bacterial cells, beyond their common growth-inhibition properties. Our previous research demonstrated that sub-MIC ampicillin, combined with mild mechanical stimulation using glass balls, significantly promotes intercellular plasmid transformation (cell-to-cell plasmid transformation) in Escherichia coli within air–solid biofilms. In this study, we investigated whether other antibiotics with diverse mechanisms of action similarly enhance plasmid transformation. Our findings revealed that various antibiotics indeed promote cell-to-cell plasmid transformation, and this effect was observed under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Interestingly, anaerobic conditions resulted in higher frequencies of plasmid transformation compared to aerobic conditions. Supporting these results, we found that several single-gene knockouts of aerobic respiratory chain components under aerobic conditions also enhanced plasmid transformation. This suggests that the unavailability of aerobic respiration may favor the process of intercellular plasmid transfer. Collectively, our results indicate that a wide range of sub-MIC antibiotics can stimulate horizontal plasmid transfer and that anaerobic conditions are particularly conducive to this process. Based on these findings, we hypothesize that the anaerobic gut environment of antibiotic-treated animals or humans, characterized by biofilm-like high cell densities of antibiotic-exposed bacteria and regular peristaltic and segmental movements, could serve as a favorable niche for horizontal gene transfer via intercellular plasmid transformation.journal articl

＜査読付萌芽論文＞〈活路〉としての音楽：日本におけるエル・システマ実践を事例とした試行的分類

In this paper, I would like to focus on the practices of El Sistema in Japan, and to tentatively organize and classify the roles that El Sistema practices are thought to play in Japanese society. The clue to this discussion is the annual reports issued by Friends of El Sistema Japan which has been working on El Sistema practice in Japan since 2012. After examining Friends of El Sistema Japan's annual reports, we were able to discern matters that could be broadly categorized into seven themes: (1) disasters and music, (2) disparities and music, (3) disabilities and music, (4) regional revitalization, human resource development (including talent discovery) and music, (5) school life and music, (6) communication, connections, place to belong and music, and (7) “adults” and music. Among these seven themes, some specific descriptions appeared in the annual reports as the activities of Friends of El Sistema Japan expanded widely, other specific descriptions appeared in the annual reports from the beginning. This can be seen as showing the evolution of El Sistema practice in Japanese society. This paper is positioned as exploratory research, and based on the seven experimental classifications derived here, we will moreover clarify the roles that the practices of El Sistema play in Japanese society, and furthermore the social roles of music. We will continue to lead to a more concrete sociological analysis and consideration of the potential of the social roles of music by next field research and other findings.departmental bulletin pape
