The influence of interpersonal affect on conversation strategy : A study of the application process of conversation rules

This work sets out to investigate how interpersonal affect influences conversation strategy.The following approach was employed. 128 university students participated in the research as subjects, and they were required to recall the specific conversation partner that the experimenter indicated. At this time experimenter manipulated three factors as follows: the first one was interpersonal affect (positive or negative) , the second was the partner\u27s sex (the same sex or the other sex) , the third was the partner\u27s age (younger, contemporary, or older) . And subjects were asked to rate 48 items about conversation strategy imagining a conversation with the indicated partner. The results showed that interpersonal affect for a conversation partner with regard to the partner\u27s sex and age strongly regulated conversation strategy

[Data] The formation of human information behavior during human evolution

本稿は，ヒトの進化過程におけるヒトの情報行動の形成を概観することを目的とした．その結果，本研究においては，ヒトの進化および情報行動の形成を方向付けた要因として次の2つの要因が指摘された．ひとつは，乾燥化および寒冷化という環境の変化の要因である．もうひとつは，ヒトの生態学的地位の低さという要因である．ヒトは，この生態学的地位の低さを，道具の使用および集団の形成という2つの行為で克服し，環境の変化を生き延びた．そして，本研究においては，道具の使用および集団の形成は，発声器官を変化させ，言語を複雑化させ，社会的知性を発達させ，ヒトの脳を進化させたとの考察がなされた．The purpose of this paper was to review the formation of human information behavior in the human evolutionary process. The results revealed that two factors—namely, environmental change characterized by aridification and cold weather and the low ecological status of humans—directed the evolution of humans and the formation of information behavior. Typically, humans overcame this problem of low ecological status by engaging in two behaviors—the use of tools and the formation of groups—to survive the environmental changes. The implication of these findings is that the use of tools and the formation of groups brought about changes in the vocal organs, increased language complexity, developed social intelligence, and facilitated the evolution of the human brain.特集　中河 伸俊名誉教授　定年退職記

Current Topics of Microwave EMI Antennas and Measurements

This paper reviews recent developments in small-sized broadband antennas for EMI measurements, especially in the microwave frequency region. Transient EMI measurements are also discussed by introducing complex antenna factors and conversion of frequency-domain data into time-domain data. This paper also focuses on considerable improvements achieved in calibration techniques for conventional EMI antennas in VHF/UHF bands
