  • Intersectionality of age and gender discrimination

    Open Access•Hidehiro Sugisawa, Ken Harada et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Women & Aging•2026

    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…

  • Difficulties and Outcomes in Managing Long-Term Care for Financially Challenged Older Adults in Japan

    Open Access•Hidehiro Sugisawa, Shizuko Yanagisawa et al.•ARTICLE•Social Work Research•2025•References: 6

    This study investigates the factors affecting difficulties and poor outcomes perceived by care managers (CMs) assisting older adults with financial difficulties in Japan’s insurance system. Based on the job demands-resources model, this study examines how CMs’ caseloads and case complexity (i.e., job demands), social support (i.e., job resources), and area socioeconomic status (SES) as structural factors influence these perceptions. In addition, …

  • Big Five Personality Traits, Social Networks, and Depression Among Older Adults in Japan

    Open Access•Ken Harada, Hidehiro Sugisawa et al.•ARTICLE•The International Journal of…•2023

    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. …

    Open Access•Hidehiro Sugisawa, Ken Harada et al.•ARTICLE•Ageing and Society•2020•References: 63

    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…
