Intersectionality of age and gender discrimination
This study investigates the effects of age and gender discrimination on job satisfaction, with a specific focus on older female workers who encounter the intersection of these two biases. To elucidate how these factors operate simultaneously, the study evaluates four conceptual models: (1) Additive, where each form of discrimination has a unique, cumulative influence; (2) Synergistic, where one form strengthens the influence of the other; (3) Inv…
Perceived Age Discrimination has Different Effects on Japanese People's Wellbeing Based on Age Groups
This study elucidates the direct and indirect effects of perceived age discrimination on depressive symptoms and life satisfaction among young, middle-aged, and older adults—through the mediator variables of psychosocial resources and aging stereotypes. Data were collected through a web-based survey conducted in Japan. The total sample size was 2400: 400 men and women in each of the age groups 20 to 39, 40 to 59, and 60 to 79. Our findings indica…

Big Five Personality Traits, Social Networks, and Depression Among Older Adults in Japan
This study examines the mediating effect of social network size on depression among older adults in Japan in association with the Big Five personality traits: extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness. Cross-sectional data were obtained from 739 older adults (Mean age = 75.13, SD = 6.86) residing in Tokyo. Multiple mediation analyses estimated total, indirect, and direct effects between personality and depression. …
Trends in informal and formal home help use among older adults with disabilities in Japan
We examined trends and differences in home help (HH) use between 1999 and 2017 regarding living arrangements, gender, income and disability levels relating to the changes in Japan's long‐term care policy. HH is the help provided for activities of daily living to older adults with disabilities. We classified it into four types: only informal, informal and formal, only formal and neither and measured perceived adequacy of HH received by participant…
Mediators and Moderators of the Influences of Living Alone on Psychological Distress Among Japanese Older Adults
This study explored gender differences in mediators and moderators of the association between living alone and psychological distress among 2556 Japanese older adults aged 65 years and older. Putative mediators and moderators were physical health, income, informal networks, and social support. Living alone was significantly related to psychological distress only in men. Significant mediators were income in both genders and social support only in …
Long-term care preference among Japanese older adults
This study examined the differences in the preference for long-term care (LTC) by age, period and cohort (A-P-C) in Japanese older adults through repeated cross-sectional surveys from 1998 – before the establishment of LTC insurance – to 2016, in a suburban city of metropolitan Tokyo. We analysed the direct effects of A-P-C on the preference for LTC, as well as the interaction effects of A-P-C on preference by gender, family structure and activit…
Health, psychological, social and environmental mediators between socio-economic inequalities and participation in exercise among elderly Japanese
This study examined which of the identified health, psychological, social and environmental mediators could most effectively explain the socio-economic status (SES)-based differences in participation in exercise among elderly Japanese. The candidates for mediators were composed based on the socio-ecological model. A representative sample of people 65 years and older living in two areas with different residential SES in Tokyo, Japan produced 739 e…
Social Networks' Health Habits Over Life Course and Late-life Health Habits
Objectives: In this study, we examined Japanese older adults' health habits (healthy diet, exercise, and nonsmoking) using 4 models: sensitive period, pathway, social mobility, and cumulative effects. Methods: A representative cross-sectional survey of people 65 years and older, living in Tokyo, produced 739 effective respondents. Health habits in social networks over the life course, at junior high school, age 20, and age 40, were measured throu…
The influence of lifecourse financial strains on the later-life health of the Japanese as assessed by four models based on different health indicators
In this study, four models used for assessing the influence of lifecourse financial strains on later-life health (the latent period effects, pathway, social mobility and accumulative effects models) were tested in the context of Japan by using different types of health indicators: comorbidity, disabled activities of daily living, disabled cognitive function, self-rated health and depressive symptoms. We hypothesised that suitable models for descr…
Volunteering among Japanese older adults
As the population ages, older adults are increasingly expected to play multiple productive roles. This study examined how hours of paid or unpaid work were associated with volunteering among older Japanese. Data came from the 2012 National Survey of the Japanese Elderly, a nationwide survey of Japanese aged 60 and older (N = 1,324). We performed multinominal logistic regression analyses to predict volunteering (regular or occasional versus non-vo…
Productive Roles, Gender, and Depressive Symptoms
Using three waves of panel data collected from a national sample of Japanese adults between the ages of 55 and 64 years, we examined the relationship between productive roles and depressive symptoms. Our particular emphasis was on multiple roles, role transitions, and gender differences. We found that, among men, engaging in more hours of paid or volunteer work was related to fewer depressive symptoms. Although men who lost their paid work role r…
Factors Relating to Organizational Commitment of Older Male Employees in Japan
How Does Self-Assessed Health Change With Age? A Study of Older Adults in Japan
Diverse subjective health trajectories exist in old age, extending well into the 90s. Prior observations of the effects of SES, social relations, and baseline health on health states and transitions can now be extended to trajectories of subjective health. Our analysis of Japanese data provides important benchmarks for comparisons with observations made in other developed nations
Work at Older Ages in Japan
The emphasis on life course experiences and work-family interdependence characterizing recent research on retirement in the United States is clearly relevant in Japan as well. To better understand later-life labor force participation in Japan, subsequent research should incorporate more direct measures of life course experiences and family relationships and attempt to make explicit cross-national comparisons of these relationships
Religion, Death of a Loved One, and Hypertension Among Older Adults in Japan
The results suggest how one overlooked dimension of religion (i.e., religious beliefs) may bolster the health of older people in the face of adversity

The Impact of Social Ties on Depressive Symptoms in U.S. and Japanese Elderly
This study examines the effects of social ties (with spouse, children, friends, neighbors, other relatives, and community groups) on depressive symptom levels in U.S. and Japanese adults aged 60 and over. Nationally representative survey data from the United States ( N = 1,419) and Japan ( N = 2,200) indicate that having a spouse, or increased contacts with friends, neighbors and relatives was associated with fewer depressive symptoms in both sam…
Gender-Role Personality Traits in Japanese Culture
The etic (universal) aspect of gender-role personality traits was examined in Japanese culture. The Bem Sex Role Inventory (BSRI; Bem, 1974, 1977) was validated for the Japanese culture and modified for this study. An investigation of the personality traits among 1,227 college students using the Japanese BSRI indicated that male students scored significantly higher on the Masculine scale than the female students, whereas they did not differ from …
Endorsements by Mexican-Americans of the Bem Sex-Role Inventory
Gender-related personality traits among Mexican-American men and women were examined. The sample consisted of 307 Mexican-Americans (150 women, 157 men) in a predominantly Mexican and Mexican-American community in South Texas. Mexican-American men scored significantly higher than the women on eight masculine items, whereas Mexican-American women scored higher than the men on four feminine items. A comparison between the scores of Mexican-American…
Mexican-American Male Batterers on the MCMI—III
This study examined personality characteristics of Mexican-American male batterers. 60 Mexican-American male batterers (M = 33.6 yr.) in the court system in South Texas took the MCMI-III and their MCMI-III scores were compared with the scores of a community sample of 45 Mexican-American individuals (M = 30.4 yr.). The batterers frequently scored higher than the nonbatterers on the Avoidant and Passive-Aggressive scales, while nonbatterers frequen…

A Preliminary Validation of the Bem Sex Role Inventory in Japanese Culture
The purpose of this study was to preliminarily validate the Bem Sex Role Inventory (BSRI) in Japanese culture. A total of 289 college students were asked to rate the social desirability of the BSRI items for both men and women. The results of multiple paired t tests indicated that, overall, the BSRI is a valid measurement in Japanese culture. Exchanging some items within the BSRI was recommended for higher validity with Japanese samples
