<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>In the context of the urgent need to establish sustainable food systems, community-supported agriculture (CSA), in which consumers share risks with producers, has gained increasing attention. Understanding the factors that influence consumer participation in CSA is crucial, yet the complete picture and interrelations of these factors remain unclear in existing studies. This research adopts a scoping review and the KJ method to elucidate the factors influencing consumer participation in CSA and to theorize consumer participation. In particular, we focus on the dynamics of individual decision-making for participation, under the premise that individuals are embedded in socio-cultural environments. We examine the decision-making process based on the seesaw of expected gains and losses from participation, along with the reflexivity to the individual and the process of updating decision-making post-participation. Our study highlights how individual decision-making for participation is influenced by relationships with others within the embedded socio-cultural environment, as well as by attachment and connection to the community. It also shows that discrepancies between expectations and experiences post-participation, and the transformation of the social capital, promote the updating of decision-making processes. In addition, among the factors identified in this study for participation in CSA, the decision to participate was heavily influenced by expectations of “variety of ingredients,” suggesting that other factors such as “food education and learning opportunities,” “contribution to environmental and social issues,” and “connections with people and nature” had little impact. Although there are limitations, the insights gained from this study offer profound implications for stakeholders and provide valuable insights for more sustainable and efficient CSA practices.</jats:p>

The aim of this study is to create a system to support cooperative prevention of accidents during mealtime among users of elderly care facilities. Experiments were conducted with 10 healthy adults to define abnormal postures during swallowing and extract responses to abnormal posture warnings by a communication robot. The participants were asked to tilt their bodies at 10° intervals from a comfortable posture and perform a food-intake test in the resulting posture. Based on observation of swallowing and feedback about posture from the participants, the angle at which each posture became dangerous was determined. As a result, abnormal posture thresholds were identified as leaning forward 30°, tilting left/right 30°, and chin tucking 20°. It was determined that the communication robot should not issue a warning in the event of repeated detection of abnormal posture. Moreover, it was considered that the warning alone is insufficient to prevent danger, and that the user and the people around them should be instructed on how to respond in the event of a warning. If the system is used in a care facility, the warning should be communicated to users and caregivers, facilitating cooperative accident prevention.

As global attention on sustainable and ethical food systems grows, animal
welfare-friendly products (AWFP) are increasingly recognized as essential to
addressing consumer and producer concerns. However, traditional research often
neglects the interdependencies between production, retail, and consumption
stages within the supply chain. This study examined how cross-stage
interactions among producers, consumers, and retail intermediaries can promote
AWFP adoption. By establishing a short value chain from production to
consumption, we conducted a two-month choice experiment in the operational
restaurant, employing a mixed-method approach to quantitatively and
qualitatively assess stakeholder responses. The results revealed that providing
information about AWFP practices significantly influenced consumer behavior,
increasing both product selection and perceived value. Retailers recognized the
potential for economic benefits and strengthened customer loyalty, while
producers identified new revenue opportunities by re-fattening delivered cow.
These coordinated changes - defined as synchronized actions and mutual
reinforcement across production, retail, and consumption - generated positive
feedback loops that motivated stakeholders to adopt AWFP practices. This
research underscores the potential of strategically designed short value chain
to foster cross-stage coordination and highlights their role as practical entry
points for promoting sustainable and ethical food systems on a larger scale.
