Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We examined a preventive measure for multiple chemical sensitivity (MCS) since sensitivity for chemical substances increasingly becomes a major concern among high school students. We conducted anonymous survey for 390 high school students and 10 nursing teachers or health coordinators from 10 high schools in Gunma prefecture. Due to MCS educational poster, 30% of the subjects (117 subjects) showed their interest in “Discharge unwanted substances from a body”. In addition, 7.4% (29 subjects) of the total belonged to a MCS high risk group, but there was no relation between the group and interest level for MCS educational poster contents or each MCS preventive method. If a person has a symptom such as allergic symptom or cold hands and feet, it tends to significantly generate more interest to each preventive method; therefore, it is considered that providing an instruction/support by such symptomatic feature would be a key for MCS education.
