{"title":"The Relationship between Settlement and Homophily of Perceived Well-being among Permanent Residents and Newcomers","authors":"Sugito Haba, K. Onitsuka, S. Hoshino, Natsuki Shimizu","doi":"10.2750/arp.39.55","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2750/arp.39.55","url":null,"abstract":"This paper seeks to ascertain the relationship between homophily (in a sense of perceived well-being) and settlement, using a case study of Achi village in Nagano prefecture, Japan based on a 2011 survey and follow-up interviews. Achi village consists of eight areas. One of these areas, Seinaiji, had an increased population projection while the other seven areas showed a decline. In 2011, the Achi Development Public Corporation conducted an intensive questionnaire survey of all households in the village to facilitate the development of local policy regarding village public services, industrial development and so forth. In 2017-2019, interviews were conducted to obtain qualitative data regarding immigrant and settler relations. Principal component analysis was applied to summarize sense of perceived well-being. Three components were extracted. They were 1) importance of a natural environment and a social base, 2) local activities, and 3) economic well-being. Households were divided into four groups by areas (Seinaiji area/ the other areas) and length of residence (short-term; up to 5 years / long-term; 5 years or more) and the average values of the component scores were then cross-compared. Comparing the average component scores among the four groups, three points can be derived. Firstly, newcomers in Seinaiji have similar well-being values to long-term residents, perhaps because of contact with long-term residents prior to migration. Secondly, newcomers in other areas have different well-being values to long-term residents, perhaps because of a lack of contact with long-term residents prior to migration. Thirdly there is a probability communication between residents and newcomers changed the sense of well-being similarly within each of the two groups. This may be conditional upon factors to be ascertained through further research. It is proposed these results hold some implications for rural in-bound settlement policy for newcomers.","PeriodicalId":272722,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF RURAL PLANNING ASSOCIATION","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122558005","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the government of fi cials in charge of the restoration work are in a dif fi cult situation, both they and response workers create practical measures and ingenuity, awareness, and lessons learned to solve problems at hand. The authors refer to such wisdom acquired through practical experience as on-site knowledge . Such knowledge tends to be limited to individuals and even small circles of groups, but if it is widely shared among engineers, its effect upon problem-solving potential at disaster restoration sites is great. At present, most on-site knowledge is consumed in a small area and is tends to be forgotten without being recorded. However, since large-scale disasters are highly unique and rare, and because the same conditions are poorly reproducible, active and conscious recording of on-site knowledge is indispensable for appropriate and effective recovery efforts following future disasters. The purpose of this paper is to establish a basic understanding that will lead to the accumulation of on-site knowledge for future use, based on the experience of recording on-site knowledge in the department of agricultural and rural development during disaster restoration following the Great East Japan Earthquake of March 2011. For this reason, the authors de fi ne on-site knowledge by discussing its characteristics and clarifying its utility in disaster response. In addition, we will present the matters that should be considered in terms of description format and quality control in on-site knowledge documentation. We then propose a method of continuous systematic collection and management.","PeriodicalId":272722,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF RURAL PLANNING ASSOCIATION","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131236042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
