Japanese migrant teachers in Australia
Chronic teacher shortages are frequently cited as a barrier to the provision of continuous language education in Australian schools. Despite the increasing emphasis on learners’ multilingual and multicultural competencies, the teacher workforce in Australia remains homogeneous. Migrant native speakers of the languages taught in schools bring valuable linguistic and cultural capital, but their career trajectories remain largely under-researched. U…
Periconceptional antibiotic use and early- to mid-pregnancy psychological distress in a nationwide birth cohort
A dose-response-like pattern was observed, suggesting that even limited antibiotic use may be an independent risk factor for psychological distress during early- to mid-pregnancy, highlighting the importance of judicious antibiotic use from the preconception period
Association of air purifier usage during pregnancy with adverse birth outcomes
Our results suggest that avoiding maternal air pollution exposure during pregnancy may be useful in preventing adverse birth outcomes. These findings provide evidence supporting the development of protective measures against air pollutants in the gestational period by relevant health agencies
Association Between Atopic Dermatitis in Pregnant Women and Preterm Births
Association of Maternal Asthma and Total Serum Immunoglobulin E levels with Obstetric Complications
Association between maternal fermented food consumption and child sleep duration at the age of 3 years
The consumption of fermented foods during pregnancy is associated with reduced risk of sleep deprivation in 3-year-old children, albeit in a limited way
Association between a single mother family and childhood undervaccination, and mediating effect of household income
This nationwide, prospective, large-scale birth cohort study found that a household with a single mother was associated with an increased risk of childhood undervaccination, and 10% of this association was explained by household income. These findings underscore the importance of improving the social environment among single mother families, including not only poverty but also working conditions
Why Are You Learning Japanese? Vietnamese University Students’ Perspectives on Work and Life between Vietnam and Japan
Although the numbers of Vietnamese skilled workers and students in Japan have been increasing rapidly, this phenomenon has not been fully understood in relation to Japanese language teaching in Vietnam’s higher education. In 2008, the Vietnamese government announced its so-called Project 2020 to enhance foreign language capacity within the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), coinciding with ASEAN’s 2009 decision to adopt English as it…
Is ‘Easy Japanese’ a Language Option? Local Responses to the Increasing Foreign Resident Population from Southeast Asia
‘Easy Japanese’ (yasashii nihongo, YN) was initially developed to disseminate information to foreign residents during emergencies after the Great Hanshin Earthquake struck Japan in 1995. Since then, YN has been promoted as a tool for communicating with foreign residents, as well as with foreign visitors to Japan in the lead-up to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. While it has gained partial recognition among the public, local governments have tried to use…
Language, Mobility and Employability among Southeast Asian Migrant Workers in Japan
There have been widespread concerns about the decline of modern languages and the waning interest in learning languages other than English around the world. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations officially adopted English as its working language in 2008, in stark contrast to the European Union, which has 24 official languages. This decision has changed the nature of multilingualism in the region, but its impact on other foreign languages is …
Influence of Maternal Active and Secondhand Smoking during Pregnancy on Childhood Obesity at 3 Years of Age
Maternal smoking during pregnancy is a risk factor for childhood obesity; however, the combined effect of secondhand smoking during pregnancy on children in the early years is unclear. We examined the effects of maternal active and secondhand smoking during pregnancy on childhood obesity in a large population-based cohort. A nested case-control study originating from the Japan Environment and Children's Study was performed. The maternal smoking s…
Preterm Deliveries in Women with Uterine Myomas
This study aimed to clarify the association between uterine myomas and preterm birth (PTB), preterm premature rupture of membranes (pPROM), and intrauterine infection (II). The study was based on data from the Japan Environment and Children's Study, a nationwide birth-cohort study. Data of 86,370 women with singleton births after 22 weeks of gestation (with uterine myomas, n = 5354) were retrospectively analyzed. Using logistic regression, adjust…
Effect of proinflammatory diet before pregnancy on gestational age and birthweight
The daily diet plays a role in systematic inflammation and may be one of the causes of preterm birth. We aimed to examine the effect of a daily proinflammatory diet before pregnancy on gestational age and birthweight using a large birth cohort in Japan. We used data of singleton pregnancies in the Japan Environment and Children's Study involving live birth from 2011 to 2014 to calculate the dietary inflammatory index. We used individual meals wit…

Japan’s Language Policy and the “Lost Decade”
For Japan, the last 10 years of the 20th century were the "Lost Decade." The chapter presents how Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) is positioned in Japanese society and how the government has approached the promotion of TEFL in its policy documents since the Lost Decade when Japan was desperately seeking solutions to overcome a national crisis. Japan&s;s notion of internationalization is a form of resistance to the cultural homogeniz…
Japanese Language and Soft Power in Asia
English-only’, but not a medium-of-instruction policy
While the medium-of-instruction (MOI) has been seen as one of the most crucial decision-making areas in language policies, it is curious that the equivalent Japanese expression to MOI is absent from educational policy documents. In a nation where the Japanese language is called the national language and enjoys the status of an official language, the absence of the MOI in policy documents is closely related to the fact that the so-called English e…
Compulsory ‘foreign language activities’ in Japanese primary schools
From 2011, the new curriculum for introducing English to Japanese primary schools will be fully implemented in the form of ‘foreign language activities’. This innovation forms part of the government's plan to cultivate ‘Japanese with English abilities’, a development based on the awareness, particularly in the business sector, that equipping Japanese citizens with English skills is imperative if Japan is to remain competitive in the international…
SP3-34 The overview and prospects of “Japan Eco & Child Study” in Fukushima
Introduction The Japanese Ministry of the Environment has begun a birth cohort study, Japan Eco & Child Study, to clarify the influence environmental risks on children (http://www.env.go.jp/chemi/ceh/index.html). This study will be conducted on 100 000 pregnant mothers and their children from across Japan from 2011. Twenty-six areas across Japan offered to participate in this project, and 15 sites, including Fukushima Medical University, were cho…
Cultivating “Japanese Who Can Use English”
Internationalisation' is 'Japanisation
This paper looks at how the Japanese government's educational policy documents define 'internationalisation' explicitly or implicitly, and how the policy is related to the relationships between Japanese citizens and TEFL (teaching English as a foreign language). This is done by text analysis, identifying silences, abstractions and contradictions in policy documents. The paper shows that the commitment of the Japanese government to internationalis…
