Current studies have revealed that 5-httplr gene would impact emotional and affective pattern through serotonergic neuron system, and have found that SS type of this gene would cause negative emotional response pattern. So SS type of 5-httplr would be reported as “negative gene” by some mass media. But, the word of “negative” as a personality trait means not only emotional response, but also behavioral and thinking patterns and social attitude. In the context of psychotherapy, behavioral and thinking patterns and social attitude would be regarded as phenomena to depend on experiences and learnings, too. This article would try to consider whether or not we could call SS type of 5-httplr gene “negative gene” in psycho-education on Japanese psychotherapy. The result of this article would be that we can do partially.
