Nankichi Niimi's literary masterpiece, Gongitsune, serves as standard educational material for teaching Japanese in many Japanese primary schools. The protagonist is a little fox named Gon who lives on the outskirts of a village and plays pranks on the villagers. One day Gon releases fish from a net set by Hyoju, a villager, and steals Hyoju's, eels. After Hyoju's mother passes away, Gon realizes Hyoju caught the eels for his ailing mother and regrets stealing the eels. He then returns under cover to Hyoju's house with chestnuts and mushrooms in order to atone for his misdeed. When Gon sneaks into Hyoju's house, Hyoju misunderstands Gon's intent and shoots him. Finding the chestnutssoon after, Hyoju realizes Gon's gifts were for him. The narrative closes with Hyoju exclaiming "Gon, was it you who always brought chestnuts for me?" Some readers think that Hyoju understands Gon's intention of compensation for depriving Hyoju's mother of the eels. Read properly, Hyoju clearly does not understand Gon's intention and feelings and the misunderstanding occurs. Tatsuki & Fushimi (2003, 2004) conducted three experiments to reconfirm the erroneous interpretation of university students and attempt to correct the misinterpretation. Results suggested, however, that the subject's erroneous interpretation of Gongitsune did not improve and was not corrected. The purpose of this study was to attempt again to correct the misinterpretation, and the authors conducted three experiments. In Experiments 1, the student subjects presented and discussed their opinions. In Experiment 2, the authors explained that Hyoju's perspective differed from that of Gon. In Experiment 3, the investigators interviewed the subjects in a semi-structured method. The results suggested that the subjects still thought that Hyoju understood Gon's compensatory intention. The subjects' erroneous interpretation of Gongitsune did not improve and was not corrected. The authors determined the subjects' misreading of the text was result of reader's intuitive, sentimental reading and confusing the facts with their inferences.

In this study, the questionnaire survey for slimming intention and body size, self-acceptance, self-confidence, and clothing behavior was conducted on 444 young female. We considered how intention towards body slimming was related to self-consciousness and clothing behavior, based on comparison between groups with higher and lower consciousness towards slimming. The results were as follows: (1) 87% female hoped to be slender and their ideal figure was extremely thin. Even in the higher slimming intention group, 90 percent or more belonged to thin or standard level in medical body mass index. They hoped to lose more weight and to be thinner especially in the lower part of their bodies. (2) Higher slimming intention group answered in the negative for self-acceptance, and tendency to lack in independency and confidence could be seen in their Cinderella complex questionnaire results. (3) Analysis on clothing expenses and purchase frequency showed that higher slimming intention group had stronger interest in clothing, were more ingenious in trying to look thinner and that this intention led them to gain more psychological stability. As a result, we conclude that slimming intention is now widely accepted in the modern society for the reasons that being thinner and wearing smartly lead to self-acceptance, self-confidence and mental stability.

From the necessity of managing water intake for the maintenance and improvement of health, we investigated the dietary habits and water intake among the female junior college students (n=68). The results are summarized as follows. The total water intake was apparently insufficient, averaging at 1437±363ml. While, 7.4% of the students satisfied the requirement (2000ml), 30.9% of them consumed less than 1200ml. The average amount of water taken as liquid was 762±318ml. Only 19.1% of the students satisfied the requirement (1000ml). In addition, both the amount of water taken at each meal and intake frequency per day tended to be insufficient, which reminded us of the necessity of improving the situation. As to the kinds of beverages taken, tea was most commonly consumed. The average amount of water taken from food sources was 675±223ml, satisfying 60-70% of the requirement. In addition, only 10.3% of the students satisfied the requirement (1000ml). The causes of deficiency included, insufficient meal (breakfast and lunch) and soup intake. Furthermore, those who habitually eat at irregular hours and those who skip meals showed significantly low levels of water intake. Based on the above findings, we confirmed the necessity of immediately improving the situations observed among the young generation by taking measures for insufficient water intake both via liquids and via food so as to attain the required water intake.
