Primary cultures of chick osteocytes retain functional gap junctions between osteocytes and between osteocytes and osteoblasts
The inaccessibility of osteocytes due to their embedment in the calcified bone matrix in vivo has precluded direct demonstration that osteocytes use gap junctions as a means of intercellular communication. In this article, we report successfully isolating primary cultures of osteocytes from chick calvaria, and, using anti-connexin 43 immunocytochemistry, demonstrate gap junction distribution to be comparable to that found in vivo. Next, we demonstrate the functionality of the gap junctions by (1) dye coupling studies that showed the spread of microinjected Lucifer Yellow from osteoblast to osteocyte and between adjacent osteocytes and (2) analysis of fluorescence replacement after photobleaching (FRAP), in which photobleaching of cells loaded with a membrane-permeable dye resulted in rapid recovery of fluorescence into the photobleached osteocyte, within 5 min postbleaching. This FRAP effect did not occur when cells were treated with a gap junction blocker (18 alpha-glycyrrhetinic acid), but replacement of fluorescence into the photobleached cell resumed when it was removed. These studies demonstrate that gap junctions are responsible for intercellular communication between adjacent osteocytes and between osteoblasts and osteocytes. This role is consistent with the ability of osteocytes to respond to and transmit signals over long distances while embedded in a calcified matrix. </p
The relationship between aversion to school, tendency to neglect one's schoolwork and ibasyo in undergraduate students: ibasyo inside and outside the university
In this study, Minakochi, Takano, and Ikeda (in press) investigated the relationship between three types of students extracted from students' dislike of school and their tendency to neglect studies - (a) students who desired to transfer to a different university, (b) students who were inactive and negligent of their studies, and (c) students who adapted to college life - and ibasyo inside and outside the university. The subjects were 298 university students (106 men, 191 women, I unknown). One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was conducted with the three types of students as the independent variable and ibasyo inside and outside of school as the dependent variable. The results revealed that compared with other groups, (a) students who desired to transfer to a different university felt they did not have ibasyo within the school. Next, a x 2 test of the existence or absence of ibasyo outside school and the type of students was performed. No significant difference could be observed. This study suggests that support is needed to create ibasyo within the school for (a) students who desired to transfer to a different university
The relationship between aversion to school, tendency to neglect one's schoolwork and ibasho in undergraduate students : The factorial structures of passive area scale and unwillingness to attend school scale.
In this study, we investigate factorial structure of the passive area scale and the unwillingness to attend school scale. A total participant is 298 undergraduate student (male is 106, female is 191 and unknown is 1). Our exploratory factor analysis data and confirmatory factor analysis data indicate that the passive area scale has a four-factorial structure in first analysis. Each factors are named 'passive school-life", "passive one's schoolwork", "passive learning", and ''inattention". The factors which are ''passive learning" and ''inattention" show low a coefficients. Therefore, it is need to be paid attention, when these factors are used In second analysis, our exploratory factor analysis data and confirmatory factor analysis data indicate that the unwillingness to attend school scale has a four-factorial structure. Each factors are named "aversion to school" and "desire to move out". A total of scale and both factors show adequate a coefficients
The relationship between aversion to school, tendency to neglect one's schoolwork and ibasho in undergraduate students: Typology based on dislike of school and tendency to neglect studies
The purpose of this study is to typologies college students' dislike of school and their tendency to neglect studies, and to understand the characteristics of each type. Hierarchical cluster analysis was used to develop the typology. The analysis extracted the following three types: I) Students who desired to transfer to a different university, 2) students who were inactive and negligent of their studies, and 3) students who adapted to college life. The group of students who desired to transfer to a different university not only did not actively interact with others during their college life, they also displayed the characteristic of feeling that there were no places where they belonged in the university (ibasho). The group of students who were inactive and negligent of their studies showed reduced desire to attend classes and do classwork; at the same time, they also displayed the characteristic of not disliking school so much that they wished to transfer out of it. The group of students who adapted to college life displayed the characteristic of being satisfied overall with college life. The above results suggest that in the case of students who desired to transfer to a different university, interpersonal relationships in college and the existence of places where they feel they belong have a greater influence on their dislike of school and intensity of the desire to transfer to a different university than does anxiety or dissatisfaction with college classes and study
The factorial structure of the dissociative experiences Scale : On sub-functions of dissociation. <Article>
This article focuses on the factorial structure of the dissociative experience scale to elucidate the sub-functions of dissociation. An initial investigation was undertaken with 269 undergraduate students (130 male, 139 female) to illustrate the factorial structure of the dissociative experience scale. Our exploratory factor analysis data indicate that the dissociative experience scale has a two-factorial structure. A subsequent investigation with 232 undergraduate students (48 male, 184 female) confirmed this structure. The analysis data from the second investigation indicate that the factorial structure provides cross-validation. The two investigations suggest that dissociation has two sub-functions, "detachment" and "compartmentalization." Furthermore, these two sub-functions may have different functions and/or purposes. Accordingly, more research is necessary to clarify which sub-functions are efficacious in what kind of experiences
An Exploratory Examination of Characteristic Patterns of Ego Function and Dream Experiences. <Article>
The objective of this research was to sort the dreams of examinees who varied along characteristic patterns of ego function and to identify characteristic experiences in the dreams. During this study, we surveyed 128 recurrent dreams, 164 unpleasant dreams and 199 impressive dreams. Five patterns of ego function and dream experience emerged. Dreamers with weak ego function and thin ego boundaries underwent more negative dream experiences. In contrast, those with strong ego function reported very positive dreams
How a disabled person's family recovered resilience through intervention by a daughter-in-law who became a companion for the disabled person <Article>
The purpose of this research was to study the family resilience recovery processes by which a woman who became the sister of a disabled person through marriage was able to improve the family's situation. The subject of the research was a 44 year-old female. She married her husband 25 years ago. Her husband's younger sister was disabled. In this research a single case study was done, through a semi-structured interview. The subject said that she had intervened on a problem of cruelty that the disabled person's family face. The family had been insular, but the subject led it to become one open to society. Furthermore, the disabled person was able to maintain a place in society, which also contributed to the recovery of her physical and emotional functions. In this way, the subject took on the role of recovering the family's resilience. However, this worsened the relation between her mother-in-law and the disabled person. This suggests that the subject's bearing everything on her shoulders was a major burden for her. In the future it is necessary to investigate the subject's life history and the husband's family and increase the number of case studies
