  This study is to investigate the size choices of brassieres in young women. A survey of 56 females was conducted (average age 21.7), comparing size based on a control dimension (control dimension size), sizes worn daily by subjects (subject size), and sizes selected by qualified salespersons (evaluator's size). Factors related to size choices were then considered from the standpoint of comfort and appearance. The results are as follows:
  
    (1) Control dimension sizes showed a low matching ratio between subject sizes and evaluator' sizes, indicating the influence of fitting characteristics such as comfort and appearance on choice of sizes. Because it is difficult to estimate the difference between the right and left breast or the shape of each breast from the control dimension alone, it can be suggested that differences in choice occur when emphasis is placed on fitting.
  
    (2) Approximately 40％ of the sizes chosen by the subjects were the same as those selected by the evaluators. Subjects with different choices tended to evaluate their own cup body shap as smaller.
  
    (3) Evaluators judged that the upper part and the sides of the brassiere cups of the subjects' choice were pressing into the body too much. On the other hand, sizes selected as the perfect fit by evaluators gave the subjects a floaty feeling above the cup.

  <p>  The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of the putting on and taking off of clothes in 20 children three years of age. The investigation period was nine months. We analyzed the movement patterns of subjects and the support of kindergarten teachers.</p><p>  The results are as follows:</p><p>  (1) The movements of taking their arms out of sleeves, pulling clothes over their heads and draping clothes over their shoulders were aided by their kindergarten teachers. These movements are difficult for three-year-old children.</p><p>  (2) When the children took off a polo shirt and a knitted shirt, their first movement was to take their arms out of the sleeves. The children took off their clothes in several different ways until they learned the best one, after which time the movement pattern remained the same.</p><p>  (3) Before putting on clothes that needed to be draped over their shoulders, the children first examined the form of the garment. This suggested that moving clothes behind their back was difficult.</p><p>  (4) The posture of the children when putting on and taking off lower wear changed from sitting to standing and while unsupported or leaning on a table during the investigation period. It was confirmed that posture is related to the development of balance control in children.</p>

The subjects were 54 5-year-old kindergarten infants (21 boys and 33 girls).</p><p>  The results were as follows:</p><p>  (1) Characteristics of buttoning movements were considered through the observation of the time required and the movement patterns. The time required for buttoning varied substantially among individuals. The movement was classified into two patterns: 'push out' and 'pick out'. The time required for the 'pick out' movement was longer than that for the 'push out'.</p><p>  (2) Skillfulness in fingers and hands were measured by a bead-stringing test and a string-tying test. The girls performed better on both tests. Skillfulness in fingers and hands were analyzed by the string-tying test in terms of the time required and the movement patterns.</p><p>  (3) There was a tendency for common movement patterns in the bead-stringing tests and the buttoning movements. Therefore, it was suggested that infants with higher skillfulness in fingers and hands required less time for buttoning.</p>

  University students in training faculty for elementary school teaching took lessons in machine sewing using ICT. After learning the basic use of sewing machines, the students sewed small bags referring to the handouts and video materials installed on Tablet PCs. The effects of learning machine sewing, the use of ICT and the points of attention in teaching were considered using the results of the pre and post questionnaires and the evaluation on the small bags sewn. The results are as follows;(1) The pre-lesson questionnaire survey showed that students tended to be passive in machine sewing than in hand sewing because of their short skills and knowledge. The post-lesson survey revealed that the study not only promoted their knowledge and skills but also enhanced their conscious towards teaching.(2) There was positive attitude towards the use of ICT by the students, most prominent in confirming the parts that were unclear. It can be concluded that video materials are effective tools in teaching as it has shown the potential to promote understanding, and to enhance seeking one's own solution.(3) Referring to the small bags submitted, points to be noted were considered. Sewing coasters was suggested as a better material to teach basics in a shorter time and to provide educational opportunity to more students, and resulted in a posting of video contents for sewing coasters on the internet.

  The purpose of this study is to investigate how the experience of putting on and taking off clothes influences the growth of children. The subjects of questionnaire surveys were child care workers. <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;It was found that: (1) Children in kindergartens and nurseries have a habit of putting on and taking off clothes regularly. Children learned the fine movements such as buttoning and putting away their clothes, and the configuration of clothes between the ages of 3 and 5. (2) Child care workers at kindergartens felt a stronger need for assistance than those at nurseries in having children put on and take off clothes by themselves. Educational effects gained from the experience of putting on and taking off clothes were children's mental development and their becoming independent in their clothing habits. (3) About 60％ of the child care workers felt that children's skillfulness in using their fingers and hands has decreased compared to before, giving specific examples mostly of basic living habits such as buttoning. It can be speculated that one of the causes is modern living, in which only easy movements are required. About 70％ were conducting activities to improve finger and hand dexterity in kindergartens and nurseries, mainly through play.

  This research examines the relationship between clothing behavior of young males and self-monitoring and its relationship with lifestyle attitudes as manifested in the "herbivore pattern" (<i>sōshokuka</i>) phenomenon. A questionnaire was presented to 290 male university students. The results were as follows:<br>(1) There was a weakening of awareness of separate gender-specific roles in lifestyle attitudes. The subjects were consumer-oriented and fastidious about cleanliness. Cluster analysis revealed that they were "positive independence in romantic relationships," "subconscious awareness" and "sound and negative approach to romantic relationships" types.<br>(2) Factor analysis of clothing behaviour revealed the first factor as "valuing fashion and external appearance," the second as "femininity" and the third as "emphasising sensitivity."<br>(3) As to the relationship between attitudes of lifestyle and clothing behaviour, we found that members of the type characterised by "positive independence in romantic relationships" valued fashion and external appearance, and those with "sound and negative approach to romantic relationships" tended to demonstrate feminine patterns of clothing behaviour and to value sensitivity.<br>(4) As to the relationship between clothing behaviour and self-monitoring, subjects who "value fashion and external appearance" highly showed a high degree of orientation towards otherdirectedness and acting. Subjects who put great importance on "value sensitivity" showed extroversion, other-directedness and acting.

  The purposes of this study are to investigate the movement characteristics of buttoning and unbuttoning using one hand, as well as to examine the relationship between the required time for the movement and the overlap, habits when putting on and taking off clothes, and handedness. In addition, movement characteristics were compared with the movement of the hand when performing daily activities using a questionnaire. In the experiment, front-opening clothes of two types having different overlaps were used. Subjects were thirty-one healthy male university students（ twenty were right-handed, eleven were left-handed）. Each subject was asked to button and unbutton each shirt with both hands and one hand. They were then required to answer a sensory evaluation sheet regarding the difficulty of performing the operations with one hand. The subjects also answered a questionnaire concerning 14 daily activities done with the hands, including 5 activities involving the putting on and taking off of clothes. The results were as follows: 1）Regarding the time required to perform operations with one hand, the only significant difference was found when buttoning with a right overlap （left>right）. Buttoning with a left overlap and unbuttoning showed no significant difference; 2）The subjects felt that it was difficult to use their right hand when there was a right overlap; 3）Regarding daily activities with one hand, performing the operations of tool was used by left or right hand.The other, the subjects had no preference when it came to putting on and taking off clothes. This was particularly true for the buttoning and unbuttoning of shirts.

  Children in kindergartens and nurseries regularly practice changing clothes. One purposes of uniforms is acquiring the skills for changing clothes. Educational effects of changing clothes is important for children's mental development and for developing the ability to change clothes independently. Therefore, changing clothes is a meaningful activity in Kindergartens and Nurseries.
  The relationship between buttoning up clothes and the skillful use of fingers and hands was investigated. Skillfulness of using hands and fingers were assessed by time required for buttoning up, and were compared between the lower performing group and the higher performing group. Results indicated that girls in the higher performing group buttoned up in a short time. Results indicated that girls in the dominant group buttoned up in a short time. These results suggest an association between buttoning up and the development of skillful use of fingers and hands.
