Outline of Final Research Achievements

This descriptive study investigates the recognized human value structure of sports in an anxiety situation by applying the life management concept of ‘time perspective’ and ‘hope’. The question asked to the participants was ‘What types of values do you recognize in Japanese benevolent sports activities to help the damaged society after the 2011 disaster?’ The participants ranked eighteen items (1 to 18) terminal and instrumental values. Network analysis (graph theory and centering resonance analysis) presents the holistic evaluation method for the positional functions of societal values and organization. The network centrality analysis may clarify the human values of sports after the 2011 disaster of Japan.
