The aim of this study is to address the decline of self-esteem in puberty from a viewpoint of development of thinking, especially critical thinking disposition. The sample consists of 633 junior high school students from four schools. We conducted nine separate questionnaires. We first estimated the mean pattern of self-esteem. It showed that self-esteem declines until Time 5 (Grade 7) after that it increased; however, there was more variation after Time 5. Then we examined self-esteem across five different time points to address the decline by using a latent growth curve model. The model showed an acceptable fit to the data. The change of Individual differences of self-esteem were shown to be related to critical thinking disposition (Time 1). The results revealed that the development of critical thinking in puberty had a negative effect on the change of self-esteem: if students have a higher level of development critical thinking disposition, it predicts that their self-esteem will decline. Thus, it appears that the development of thinking would be related to the decline of self-esteem in puberty.

The present study investigated about life history in adolescence through making life-history graph from dimension of important event, and impression and describing change of feelings and meanings about them on questionnaire. Furthermore, the purposes of this study were to understand self-development of adolescence in past-present-future and to investigate effects of reflection taken by graph making. Each time dimension were positioned as "meaning's re-construction toward affirmative vector for past life event", "affirmative meanings for present self", and "affirmative meanings for future". As a result, multiple aspects of self-development were shown by description-based qualitative analysis. Also, reflection effects such as "affirmative self-understanding", "eagerness to self-development", and "unfavorable self-understanding" was achieved. Furthermore practical significance was found. Throughout all discussion, possibility of "qualitative questionnaire method" by active usage of the life-history graph as adolescent psychological research method and descriptive data such as meanings and reflection was suggested.

Psychological functions of sharing among junior high school friends were examined and the relationship between shared objects and psychological functions of sharing was investigated. Participants were junior high school students (N=1068). The result of factor analyzing items on psychological functions of sharing indicated the following six factors: "motivation", "increased pleasure", "friendly evaluation from others", "increased feeling of burden", "achievement evaluation from others", and "increased negative evaluations from others." Descriptions of objects shared with friends were classified into eight categories and psychological function of sharing scores was compared for the most important shared object. Result indicated the following; 1) "psychological sharing" such as "feelings" and "goals" had positive functions. 2) "Material sharing" such as "things" did not have either a positive or negative functions. 3) "Behavioral sharing" such as "chatting" and "school activities" had negative functions. These results suggest that friendships that included "psychological sharing" increased "motivation" and "pleasure" in junior high school students, and was deeper than friendships based on "behavioral sharing" and "material sharing".

The purpose of this study was to investigate the support students who did not enter their first-choice university needed to perceive the entrance examination experience more positively. Data collected from questionnaires completed by 246 university students were analyzed. ANOVA showed that students who did not enter their first-choice university perceived the entrance examination experience more positively than those who did. Additionally, a multiple population analysis showed that emotional and informational support from friends, indirectly influenced by degree of adjustment to university, affected “continuous perception” positively and “negative attitude” negatively only for students who did not enter their first-choice university. In contrast, emotional support from friends directly influenced “negative cognition” so that it decreased for both groups of students. These results suggest that students who did not enter their first-choice university need emotional and informational support from friends to perceive the entrance examination experience more positively. In addition, these perceptions can be enhanced by assisting students in adjusting to university.

This study aimed to examine the influence of sense of trust in self and other persons on oneʼs view of Japanese society among university students. Two hundred twenty-two students answered the questionnaire. Covariance structure analysis revealed that “distrust” positively influenced “negative evaluations of selfish and self-righteous people” among the subscales of oneʼs view of society. “Trust for self” positively influenced “positive evaluations of a peaceful and affluent life,” and “trust for others” positively influenced “negative evaluations of selfish and self-righteous people” and “respect for efforts.” It was revealed that the higher trust in self and others was, the more positive oneʼs view on society was. However, the higher the trust in others was, the more criticisms of people and mass media and anxiety about the future were suggested. Future tasks are as follows: (a) to investigate various participants, (b) to clarify the role of sense of trust in the formation process of oneʼs view of society, and (c) to examine the factors, other than trust, that are related to oneʼs view of society.

Due to the diversification of life courses in recent years, it has become difficult for college students to find adequate role models to guide their future and careers. Role models are important because college students can use them as a guideline for their future. The aims of these studies were: 1) to study the difference in career development with and without role models, 2) to develop a Role Model Scale (RMS) that measures the influence of role models, and to examine its validity and reliability, 3) to categorize role models and to articulate the characteristics of each type, and 4) to examine differences in career development depending on the types of role models.In Study I, we created the items for the RMS based on the answers asked to college students about their perceptions of how they referred to their role models and how their career development were influenced by them.In Study II, we developed the RMS (comprising 5 factors) as a result of factor analysis. Moreover, after conducting latent profile analysis, we classified role models into 5 types. Our results showed that the “master” and “bad example” role model types were effective for career development.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the meaning of orientation toward ideal self, i.e., the orientation toward actualization of ideal self, from both positive and negative points. We examined positive meaning from the relationship between orientation toward ideal self and the degree of self-development and negative meaning from the relationship between self-evaluation and orientation toward ideal self. We requested 638 university students to answer the questionnaire. As a result, it was shown that orientation toward ideal self was significantly positively related with expectation of future self-development and evaluation of past self-development, and it insisted that orientation had positive meaning on this point. The negative meaning of orientation toward ideal self, however, couldn't be found clearly. With further investigation, which implied that orientation toward ideal self was also related with acquirement of steps and acts to actualize ideal self, these results would be caused not only because that orientation toward ideal self meant the strength of one's heart but also because that it was followed the steps or acts to actualize ideal self.

<p>The purpose of this qualitative study is to elucidate themes related to the process from the beginning of employment seeking until deciding to enter a less desirable company. This study consists of semi-structured interviews of new employees, who were not able to enter the company of their choice. Interviews were analyzed via Modified Grounded Theory Approach (M-GTA). Our results identified 26 concepts, organized into 6 superordinate categories. The central theme of changing future perspectives and expectations united the observations, and divided them into four chronological periods, (1.) Creating an ideal perspective, (2.) Wavering from the ideal perspective, (3.) Avoiding a critical future, and (4.) Creating a temporal perspective. From these results it can be concluded that employment seekers may experience mental instability when realizing that they will not receive the job they desired. However, it is also suggested that many of them settle into their new positions with a degree of acceptance, specifically through setting up a "temporal perspective".</p>

The present study examined the nature of difficulties for undecided students of faculty of education. A questionnaire was administered to 572 junior students in November. It contained revised Career Decision-making Difficulties Questionnaire (Gati et al., 1996). On responses to the scale, factor analysis and cluster analysis were conducted, which produced seven factors and six subtypes of undecided students. The subtypes were different as to sense of comfort (Jones, 1989) and indecisiveness, so the clusters were consistent with groups which preceding studies constructed. Most factor scores for each difficulty didn't vary much in the same subtype, whereas in case of 'interest' and 'method for decision making' factors two clusters ranked higher order compared with other difficulties. Sense of comfort for career decision making was most correlated to how much confidence about interest he/she had. And two-way ANOVA examined effects of alternative-depended factor (whether teaching profession had been one of his/her alternatives or not) and decided/undecided factor on sense of each difficulty.

Most Japanese contemporary adolescents communicate with their friends by using “Chara,” which is a shortened form of “Character”. However, few studies have examined Chara from a psychological perspective. Thus, the purpose of this study was to clarify a) percentage of using Chara, b) thoughts about Chara, c) differences in friendship based on types of Chara types, & d) satisfaction with friendship that use Chara. A preliminary survey with 57 participants showed that around fifty percent had Charas, and that Charas could be divided into two types. Results of the main survey of 236 participants revealed that those who have Charas tend to form friendship groups, and satisfy their friendships more than those who do not perceive Charas. Moreover, the process of decreasing friendship satisfaction among participants with Chara was also examined.

This study reconsidered Erikson’s concept of identity from the subjective perspective to enhance self-understanding. Those experiences Erikson labeled as “identity crisis” elicited self-questioning in two instances: at times of memory loss and adolescence. Self-questioning in memory loss was comparable to the loss of personal identity, according to Erikson. Self-questioning during adolescence was comparable to the loss of ego identity. The concept of identity is regarded as “sameness and continuity,” given Erikson’s description of personal identity and ego identity. In this paper, Tatara’s view of “sameness and continuity” was reconsidered from the subjective perspective; leading to the idea that identity is “I am Me as an individual living in society, from birth to death.” Recognizing oneself according to the above definition due to the loss of personal identity proved impossible. Moreover, accepting oneself due to the loss of ego identity also proved to be impossible. This study’s notion of identity could provide ground for Erikson’s concept of identity from the subjective perspective. Further studies could address issues, including the theoretical clarification of existential considerations arising from identity crisis, the theoretical clarification of identity crisis that may shake the grounds of identity through various changes, and developing a theoretical methodology on phenomenological grounds examining the first two endeavors. Key words: identity, sameness, continuity, self-understanding

This study examined the structure and the interaction of Sexual Self-Consciousness and Sexual Risk-Coping Consciousness of university students, and how each consciousness was correlated with sexual intercourse experience. The subjects were 302 students (male 138, female 164), to whom a questionnaire was distributed. After the review of related previous studies Sexual Self-Consciousness and Sexual Risk-Coping Consciousness were defined specifically for this study. Following the definitions the questionnaire items were completed. As a result of factor analysis of items concerning Sexual Self-Consciousness, two factors, namely the positive feeling towards one's own sexual relationship and the feeling of satisfaction towards one's own sexual attractiveness, were extracted. The scores of the two subscales of Sexual Self-Consciousness showed positive correlation between the two. As a result of factor analysis of items concerning Sexual Risk-Coping Consciousness, only one factor was extracted, with no subscales classified. Hence, the score of this scale was also called Sexual Risk-Coping Consciousness which proved to have positive correlation with the two subscales of Sexual Self-Consciousness. Further, the scores of the two subscales of Sexual Self-Consciousness and the scale of Sexual Risk-Coping Consciousness were significantly higher for both sexes who had experienced sexual intercourse than those with no experience of sexual intercourse.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between factors pertaining to work values and vocational selecting behaviors. In study 1, data were collected from 735 college students (336 men and 399 women) in Japan. A questionnaire contained work values. A factor analysis revealed the following five factors: self-worth, social evaluation, comfortable working environments, cordial human relations, and independence from the organization. The questions pertained to vocational selecting behaviors. An analysis based on the Hayashi's quantification theory revealed two axes: social and aspirational. The social was related to low level of social evaluation and comfortable working environments. The aspirational was related to high level of self-worth, social evaluation and independence from the organization. In study 2, 21 adults were grouped into five types: facing up to reality, pursuing both personal and social activities, moratorium, part-time job worker, and mixed. The types were based on vocational selecting behaviors of the college students. By interviews to job hunting while still in the college, differences were noticed work values and vocational selecting behaviors in three types: facing up to reality, pursuing both personal and social activities, and moratorium.

Previous studies have highlighted that the tendency to behave differently according to situations is advancing along with changes in social conditions in the modern age. Moreover, such a tendency is particularly pronounced among adolescents. In addition, scholars have suggested that a fragmented and pluralistic self that behaves differently depending on the situation is more likely to adapt well in the modern age compared with a single, consistent self regardless of the situation. Thus, this study developed the Self-Plurality Scale and combined it with the Sense of Authenticity Scale to classify self-plurality among adolescents in terms of situational, strategic, and masked aspects. The results indicate that adolescents' selves were classified into four groups, namely, pluralistic natural group, pluralistic masked group, unitary self group, and pluralistic self group. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that the pluralistic self group displayed the lowest sense of identity among the four groups, whereas the unitary self group achieved the highest sense of identity. However, the pluralistic natural group, which has a high sense of self-invariance and a sense of authenticity despite their multiple selves, formed an identity comparable in varying degrees to the unitary self group, which is generally considered healthy.
