Abstract	Positive thinking is one of the psychological skills that mental training programs aim to help athletes cultivate in order to enhance performance. It has been noted, however, that some athletes do not find positive thinking effective for that purpose. This case report describes a fencing athlete who used positive thinking to cope with negative ruminations prior to a competition and then stopped using positive thinking and engaged in mindfulness. As a result of applying mindfulness, the patient developed the ability to take part in competitions without obsessing and without negative ruminations. These findings show the importance of assessing, in detail, how the psychological skills training used with athletes is affecting their cognition, behavior, and performance and of implementing appropriate interventions based on these assessments.

Abstract	Background: As the number of older people requiring care continues to increase across the globe, maintaining care workers' mental health is an important task for all countries. This study examines the association between interpersonal relationships at work and psychological distress among care workers at elder care facilities in Japan. Methods: This study was a secondary data analysis of cross-sectional data. There were 406 participants who were analyzed. Questions consisted of demographic variables, psychological distress, interpersonal problems in the workplace, and intention to improve interpersonal relationships. Psychological distress was evaluated using the Japanese version of the K6 scale. Factors related to psychological distress were identified by logistic regression analysis. Results: Prevalence of psychological distress was 53.2%. Care workers experiencing interpersonal problems in the workplace were 5.95 (95% CI: 3.82-9.43) times more likely to experience psychological distress than care workers without such problems. Moreover, those who displayed an intention to improve their interpersonal relationships were 0.33 times (95% CI: 0.15-0.71) less likely to experience psychological distress than those who did not. Conclusions: This study found there is a strong association between workplace interpersonal relationships and psychological distress among care workers at elder care facilities. Therefore, experiencing interpersonal problems in the workplace may be a risk factor for psychological distress, and displaying an intention to improve one's interpersonal relationships may attenuate psychological distress.

Abstract	Introduction: The turnover rate of care workers has remained high by global standards, with previous studies showing an association between workplace interpersonal relations and care worker turnover and turnover intentions. This study details the development of the Workplace Interpersonal Problems Scale for Care Workers (WIPS) and examines its reliability and validity according to the COSMIN guidelines. Methods: A total of 476 care workers employed by elder care facilities participated in the study. This study examined the reliability and validity of the WIPS after its development. Reliability was evaluated using Cronbach's α, test reliability with the standard error of measurement, and test-retest reliability with the intraclass correlation coefficient. Content validity, construct validity, and structural validity were examined to evaluate validity. Results: Both total and subscale scores of the WIPS had a Cronbach's α coefficient >0.75 and high test-retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient, 0.75). Content validity analysis showed the item-content validity index of ≥0.90 for all WIPS items, confirming 100% of the hypotheses for testing construct validity. Confirmatory factor analysis showed an acceptable fit for the hypothesized six-factor construct (CFI = 0.92, TLI = 0.91, RMSEA = 0.07, SRMR = 0.05). Conclusions: The WIPS was found to be a valid and reliable instrument. With the growth of the elderly population worldwide, we believe that the WIPS will be a useful quantitative measure to assess workplace interpersonal problems affecting care workers in various aspects.

Abstract	Background: A previous study has shown that Japanese individuals generally exhibit behavior that suppresses the expression of positive emotions, which are strongly affected by affectivity traits. In the present study, to clarify the relationship between affectivity traits and work engagement (WE) or work-related psychosocial factors among Japanese workers, we compared it to the association between psychological distress and these same factors. Methods: A total of 1,000 full-time Japanese regular workers responded to an online survey that measured demographic variables, negative and positive affectivity, job demands and resources, WE, and psychological distress. A hierarchical multiple regression analysis was conducted separately, which used WE and psychological distress as dependent variables. Results: The proportion of variance explained by negative and positive affectivity was lower for WE than for psychological distress. However, the proportion of variance defined by job demands and resources was higher for WE than for psychological distress. The proportion of variance explained by all variables for negative and positive affectivity and job demands and resources, and their interactions was approximately equal for WE and psychological distress. Conclusion: These results emphasize when researchers aim to evaluate the change of psychosocial factors in the workplace, such as improving the workplace environment among Japanese workers, it might be beneficial to measure positive indicators in addition to negative indicators. Furthermore, enriching job resources would be effective in improving WE and alleviating psychological distress.

Abstract	Background: Achieving gender equality is an important goal in Japan. Consequently, this study aimed to examine gender differences in a series of associations between job demands or resources and job performance mediated by work engagement (WE) in the motivational process of the job demands-resources model. Methods: This study recruited 671 non-manual workers (260 men and 411 women) through an online survey. The measured variables were demographic information, job demands or resources, WE, and job performance. Multiple-group structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. Results: Regarding the level of job demands or resources and WE, no significant difference was observed between men and women. Whereas, job performance was significantly higher in women than in men. Additionally, multiple-group structural equation modeling indicated that the model that imposed on all path coefficients for equality constraints had a better fit, and consequently, no gender differences. Conclusion: Although the motivational process indicated no gender differences, job performance was higher in women than in men due to the management of a gender-equal and friendly work environment. Further comprehensive examinations, that use other variables not included in the present study, are required to understand women's high job performance.

Abstract	Background: Japan is reviewing how physicians operate and plans to implement a work-style reform for physicians in 2024. This study examined how outsourcing housework cleaning tasks changed the daily lives of university hospital physicians. Methods: A total of 18 physicians participated in the study, outsourcing cleaning tasks either once or thrice. Results: Fourteen out of 18 respondents reported a decrease in the burden of household chores. Additionally, 10 respondents reported having more time for family contact, and nine respondents reported having more time for their own hobbies and diversions. Meanwhile, only five respondents reported that they had more time to work. Conclusion: Outsourcing housework cleaning tasks and using the newly created time for family and self may improve work performance.

Abstract	Background: This study focuses on care workers at elder care facilities to examine what factors (including workplace personal relations) influence turnover intention and to what extent. Based on this analysis, the study discusses the content of workplace personal relations problems in qualitative terms. Methods: The study targeted care workers at elder care facilities. There were 406 participants with no missing data who were analyzed. The survey period ranged from September to November 2021. Questions consisted of basic attributes, turnover intention, problems with workplace personal relations, content of personal relation problems, and psychological distress. Results: Female care workers were 2.25 times more likely than male care workers to have turnover intention. Care workers with workplace personal relation problems were 1.97 times more likely than those without these problems to have high turnover intention. Moreover, with regard to psychological distress, the ratio increased to 4.99 times. The following six categories were extracted from the text data on workplace personal relation problems: insufficient communication, bullying, sense of unfair workload, different attitudes to care work, difficulty in guidance for subordinates/new staff, and labelling. Conclusions: Gender, workplace personal relation problems, and psychological distress have shown to affect care workers' turnover intentions. To prevent care worker turnover, future studies should focus on the development and impact of strategies to improve workplace personal relations specific to care workers, targeting the six factors identified in this study.

Abstract	The purposes of this meta-analysis were (1) to examine the associations between work engagement (WE) and the personality dimensions of five-factor model and (2) to determine how much variance in WE is explained by these five factors. We performed a database search for studies related to personality traits and WE, and 36 papers that reported correlation coefficients were selected for the meta-analysis. After correcting for publication bias using the trim-and-fill method, conscientiousness had the strongest association with WE (ρ=0.41), followed by extraversion and openness to experience (0.38), neuroticism (-0.36), and agreeableness (0.27). Moreover, 30% of the WE variance could be explained by the five-factor model (R

Abstract	Background: Cognitive flexibility is also referred to as set-shifting and is considered to be an important activity of the frontal lobe. The objective of this study was to produce a Cognitive Flexibility Test (CFT) that can evaluate cognitive flexibility in a short time and in a simple manner and to verify the usefulness of the test. Methods: The CFT, Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), Verbal Fluency Test (VFT), and Geriatric Depression Scale 15 (GDS-15) were implemented among a total of 94 elderly people who live at home. An "A" version of CFT (CFT-A), which asked about the possible uses of a plastic bottle other than drinking and a "B" version (CFT-B), which asked about the possible uses of a ballpoint pen other than writing, were produced. Results: In the case of CFT-A, after adjusting the number of years of education, a significant correlation was found between CFT-A and the variables age, VFT, and MMSE. As for CFT-B, after adjusting the number of years of education, it was found to have a significant correlation with age and VFT. The number of responses for CFT-A and CFT-B were significantly lower than that of VFT. The number of responses for CFT-B was significantly lower than that of CFT-A. Conclusion: The CFT-A may be useful as a neuropsychological test to evaluate cognitive flexibility among elderly people that can be implemented easily in a short time.

Abstract	A 94-year-old woman presented with anorexia, persisting for several months, and marked anemia. An upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed type 3 advanced gastric cancer in the antrum. CT imaging indicated a large esophageal hiatus hernia and the elevation of the gastric fornix to the level of the bronchus. Wall thickening in the antrum, surrounded by increased fat tissue density, and swollen lymph nodes along the common hepatic artery, were detected. She was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer(cT3N1M0, cStage Ⅲ)and a large hiatal hernia. A laparoscopic hiatal hernia repair and distal gastrectomy were performed. The cancer was exposed outside the serosa in the antrum, yet there was no indication of ascites, liver metastasis or peritoneal dissemination. The esophageal hiatus was sutured, and a distal gastrectomy(Billroth-Ⅱ reconstruction)was conducted. To avert hernia recurrence, sutures were applied to the posterior wall of the abdominal esophagus and the crus of the diaphragm, as well as the fornix of the remnant stomach and the diaphragm. Her postoperative course was uneventful, and she was discharged on POD13. There were no instances of gastric cancer recurrence or hiatal hernia 7 months post-operation.
