PapersThe shift from corporate punishment to psychotropic drugs : From interviews with staff at Children's Home Y in Prefecture Z9,9,1-222019～2433-3492This paper explores changes in the handling of problem behavior in children residing at children's homes, particularly over the period of 1980-2000, from the perspective of medicalization (Conrad and Schneider 1992=2003). We chose Children's Home Y, which exhibited advancement the administration of psychotropic drugs to children, for research purposes, conducting semi-structured interviews with eight staff members working at the facility.Our research revealed that a large number of delinquent children resided at Children's Home Y through the 1980s, and that it was an everyday occurrence for staff to restrain violent children. By the 1990s, however, as corporal punishment became taboo as children's rights came to the fore, this type of punishment was no longer acceptable. As of the early 2000s, specialized mental health staff have been assigned to children's homes, while full-time psychiatrists are now assigned to child consultation centers. At this time it became easier for children with behavioral problems to be diagnosed as ADHD, and psychotropic drugs have clearly have been prescribed more frequently.Handling of behavioral problems in these children saw a major shift from corporate punishment to administration of psychotropic drugs, along with a trend toward medicalization. At the same time, interviews with staff indicated a certain degree of uneasiness with regard to the possibility over-medication, as well as concern over side effects of psychotropic drugs.

PapersSurvey on the attitude toward genetic testing of neurologists certified by the Japanese Society of NeurologyIn refereedKunihiro Yoshida, Takako Ohata, Kaori Muto, Atsushi Tsuchiya, Jinichi Sawada, Takanori Hazama, Shu-Ichi Ikeda, Tatsushi TodaClinical Neurology53,5,337-3442013～10.5692/clinicalneurol.53.3370009-918XTo clarify the attitude toward genetic testing for neuromuscular diseases, a questionnaire was sent to 4,762 neurologists certified by the Japanese Society of Neurology. By December 21, 2011, 1,493 questionnaires (31.4%) were returned. Of these, 1,233 (82.6%) had experienced genetic testing, but only 396 (26.5%) had referred to the guideline for genetic testing of the Japanese Society of Neurology (2009). The numbers of respondents who were positive, or more positive than negative for genetic testing for myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), Huntington's disease (HD), and familial amyloid polyneuropathy (FAP) were 753 (50.4%), 915 (61.3%), and 980 (65.6%), respectively. The predominant reason for a positive attitude toward genetic testing was to confirm or exclude the diagnosis. Conversely, the predominant reason for a negative attitude toward genetic testing differed between the diseases. For DM1, it was to confirm the diagnosis without genetic testing. For HD, it was that genetic testing would not result in effective prevention or therapy. In FAP, it was that post-testing psychosocial support for the patient and their family was difficult. Common to DM1, HD, and FAP, a significant number of respondents (approximately 60%) felt it difficult to explain the negative aspects that might occur after the disclosure of test results. Concerning predictive or prenatal genetic testing, most respondents referred at-risk individuals to specialized genetic counseling clinics. In general, neurologists are likely to conduct genetic testing properly in consideration not only of the characteristics of the diseases but also of the circumstances of each patient and his or her family. To support neurologists who are involved in genetic testing, the guidelines should be more easily accessible. Many respondents wanted information on the institutions that provide genetic counseling and testing
however, financial support to such institutions is indispensable for fulfilling this requirement.

PapersAn analysis of the factors determining social attitudes toward genetic enhancement and views of heredityTSUCHIYA Atsushi, OHATA Takako, WATANABE Maiko, TAKADA FumioJournal of the Japan Association for Bioethics18,1,47-572008/9/21～10.20593/jabedit.18.1_471343-4063The purpose of this paper is to analyze the extent of interests in ordinary life and the need to use genetic technologies in areas requiring enhancement, such as "physical strength," "intelligence," and "aging". In the model for analyzing this analysis, which is the binary logistic model, the dependent variables are the extent of interests in ordinary life and the need to use genetic technologies, while the independent variables are basic properties, the structure of the family, and social attitudes toward genetic determination (points of the factor analysis). In this output, interests in ordinary life are affected by gender, age, and educational background. On the contrary, the need to use genetic technologies is affected by gender and job conditions, which differs from the former models on interests in ordinary life. Further, the first factor (physical strength and appearance), the points of the factor analysis for genetic determination, and the fourth factor (clinical medicine) are particularly significant elements favoring the need to use genetic technologies.

PapersHistorical analysis of the acceptance of amniocentesis and the social policy "The movement for preventing birth of disabled children" : Social-structural factors from the mid-1960s to 1970s in JapanTSUCHIYA AtsushiJournal of the Japan Association for Bioethics17,1,190-1972007/9/20～10.20593/jabedit.17.1_1901343-4063The purpose of this paper is to analyze the socio-structural factors of eugenic policy from the mid-1960s to eprly-1970s in Japan through analyzing "The movement for preventing birth of disabled children" of local governments which was intended to prevent births of disabled children. The main point is that this social policy was a turning point in the process of transforming eugenic policy in Japan. I also clarify this process by analyzing the social context in which this eugenic policy was "needed" to prevent "disabled children" from being born the socio-structural factors to make it possible.
