This study was designed as one of the experiments of psychological study of Kendo. Conception of Fear was selected among the "Four Instructions of Kendo" for this study. There were two purposes of this study such as to find the degree of fear when one was attacked, and to find the degree of self-confidence which would be affected by the degree of fear. The results of this study showed as follows; 1) In terms of relationship between fear and self-confidence, it could be said that the degree of self-confidence would depend upon the degree of fear. There was a tendency that the degree of self-confidence decreased with the increase of the degree of fear and vis-a-vis. 2) The degree of fear was inclined to be small when an attack came up to one's expectation except "Tsuki-thrust to the throat". 3) The great degree of fear was found in case of "Tsuki". One tended to be seized with fear more in "Tsuki" than in the other part of attack, when he felt he would be thrusted to his throat regardless of the result.
