This study investigated the effect of moral foundation and feeling of disgust toward acriminal case on non-professional legal decisions. Three hundred and sixty participantswere asked to read a fictional story about a murder attempt case and rated a possi-bility that a defendant, who had denied all charges against the case, would be judgedas guilty. Participants were also rated a degree of regrets about their decision if thetruth would be either guilty or not guilty. The degree of physical injury of a victim wasvaried in accordance with three conditions (i.e., minor, heavy, and permanent damage).The analysis revealed that participants who put much value on not harming others feltdisgust toward the criminal case, and that resulted in higher ratings of possibility thatthe defendant would be judged as guilty. In addition to that, as the degree of physi-cal injury of the victim got severer, the ratings of the possibility also got higher, andparticipants felt less regrets of their decision even if the defendant was actually nota real perpetrator and thus they made Type II error. We discussed characteristics ofnon-professional legal decisions from both theoretical and practical perspectives.

The purpose of the present study is to illustrate how social networking service (SNS) such as “Twitter [twitter.com]” works as a tool enhancing our communication between space and the ground. To do so, by using a text mining technique, we analyzed text data of an astronaut ’s daily reports, short compositions posted by the astronaut on Twitter, and reactions from ground to his tweeting (the primary author is the astro-naut himself. He wrote daily reports during his first space flight and tweeted during his second long duration space flight). In the analysis, we focused on the frequency of the use of some specific words and on changes in the astronaut’s verbal expressions over time. Results suggested that SNS communication had an impact on the astro-naut’s word choice when he narrated his experience in space and also contributed to facilitating interaction between the astronaut and ground. Based on these findings, we speculated that, due to its easiness, promptness and bidirectionality, SNS has great potential for becoming a powerful and fundamental tool to reduce our psychological distance to space, and by this token, contributes to developing scientific interests of general public in space exploration. This implies that, through SNS communication,we have already begun to experience space as a part of our everyday things on Earth.

Some people with pervasive developmental disorder (PDD) can hardly express their<br> own thoughts in language. Sometimes, they have been considered as a communication<br> disorder. However, since the word "communication" is usually defied as an interaction<br> between at least two persons, it is doubtful to attribute problems happened within a<br> particular communication to one side. In this study, I collected text data from a mi-<br>croblog of one person who has been diagnosed as PDD and having difficulty to express<br> her own thoughts in language, in order to investigate how the microblog had changed<br> the way of communications. The results of the text data analysis showed that the par-<br>ticipant expressed what she wanted to say by referring and utilizing remarks of others.<br> The possibility and implications of removing the difficulties from their communication<br> through the process of "curation" was discussed.

Pervasive misinformation is a primary social issue in the digital age. A common method for resolving this issue is making corrections to mitigate false beliefs due to misinformation. However, the influence of misinformation is often predominant, thereby resulting in correction having a limited effect on alleviating people's false memory and reasoning. This psychological phenomenon is known as the continued influence effect of misinformation. Rapidly evolving research has accumulated into a sizable literature explaining the psychological processes that cause this effect. This article seeks to clarify the psychological processes for exploring ways to harness the negative impact of misinformation on our minds. Specifically, we review cognitive models and factors related to the continued influence effect, as well as a potential side effect of correction. Moreover, we summarize practical recommendations for interventions based on psychological characteristics. Finally, we discuss future directions in psychology and how emerging interdisciplinary research contributes to controlling the harmful impact of misinformation on our society.

Recently, a multi-lab study has become increasingly popular. It’s one of the empirical study methods where researchers from various regions and cultures around the world conduct research at the same time using the same procedures. This paper discusses how to participate in a multi-lab study, the advantages of the participation, and the problems associated with the participation. First, any researchers can be involved in a multi-lab study and its process is not much different from that of traditional international collaborative studies. Next, it is highlighted that multi-lab studies have greater academic implications than meta-analyses and that providing Japanese data increases the significance of it. Finally, the paper points out that the financial and authorship issues associated with the participation in a multi-lab study should be overcome.

It has been over a decade since reproducibility in psychology became discussed hotly. Many ideas and systems have been proposed to address the reproducibility crisis in psychology. However, it is also essential to consider the training of future generations in this regard. Here, this paper introduces some examples of efforts to incorporate reproducibility education in undergraduate psychology programs and discusses the benefits and potential challenges of these approaches. This paper aims to stimulate discussion on the role of undergraduate education in promoting the reproducibility of psychology.

Processing fluency influences judgment as metacognitive cue. Laham, Koval, & Al-ter (2012) demonstrated name-pronunciation effect whereby easy-to-pronounce (i.e.,easy-to-process) names were judged more positively. In their study, however, the “pro-nouncability” was not defined by objective criteria, which may cast doubt on the inter-nal validity of the effect. To overcome this limitation, the present study replicated thename-pronunciation effect by manipulating two objectively defined and well-establishedpronouncability factors: within-item phonological similarity and phonotactic frequencyof the name. Phonological similarity is manipulated by making the constituent moraeshare the same vowel or not. Phonotactic frequency is defined by a composite score ofmora, bi-mora and position-mora frequency. We asked participants to rate impressionof names, presenting nonwords as names of foreign person who would come to their of-fice. The result indicated independent effects of phonological similarity and phonotacticfrequency with phonologically similar and low phonotactic frequency names being ratednegatively. The present study confirmed the internal validity of the name-pronunciationeffect in the previous study.

Recent studies of interaction research have revealed that mind in the interaction is<br> embodied in gesture in the material world as the interaction resource. In this study,<br>we research interaction of turning pages each other when they decide the order of the<br> restaurant. Using a virtual menu with 6 pages, 2 participants in the experiment decided<br> to take one dish for each one for each page. Focusing on when and how the partici-<br>pants turn each page, we found that both participants touch or follow the page when<br> it was turned in 64/135 cases. The timing of the turning is organized not only by their<br> utterance of announcing their order but also the body movement of page manipulation.<br> They used the spatio-temporal pattern of page manipulation such as moving their hand<br> from the center to the edge of the page or lifting the edge of the page slightly. These<br> pre-sequences of turning pages, which were step by step process of sequential move-<br>ments with pauses and were embodied with material world of the page structure, seem<br> to project the next movement of page manipulation to prepare the simultaneous page<br> turning by the participants.

Classic research in developmental psychology proposed that children gradually abandon magical or supernatural beliefs and instead acquire a more scientific or natural appreciation of cause and effect. However, recent studies have shown that adults across highly diverse cultural contexts rely on magical beliefs that violate, operate outside of,or are distinct from the empirically verifiable phenomena of the physical or material world. These magical beliefs are examples of mis- or fictional-projection in projection science. The current study reviewed the literature on the development of magical thought including immanent justice reasoning, conceptions of afterlife, and beliefs of magical contagion. Overall, recent studies have suggested that these phenomena of mis- or fictional-projection are pervasive across cultures, and also across developmental stages. Several studies found a U-shaped developmental pattern in which magical thought decreased with age throughout childhood and adolescence, but then increased again among adults, implying that formal education cannot suppress magical mind only temporally. These recent studies suggested that mis- or fictional-projection is a core feature of human cognition.

In this experiment, we verified the sensory relatedness of onomatopoeic words that represent texture. The effect of the difference between Hiragana and Katakana or thography was investigated by asking 74 participants to evaluate onomatopoeic words written in Hiragana and Katakana. Participants were requested to evaluate the degree to which 69 onomatopoeic words that express texture were related to the five modalities (vision, olfaction, hearing, taste, and touch) on a 7-point scale. Among the 74 participants, 54 participants evaluated the words written in normal orthography. And 22 remaining participants evaluated the words writtenin reverse orthography. The results indicated, that the relatedness of echoic words to touch and hearing was high, and orthography did not influence the results. On the other hand, the modalities that were highly related to imitative wordswere significantly different according to orthography. That is, orthography effects differed between imitative words and echoic words.

This study investigated false alarm effects against interacting with a person who had been indicted in an attempted murder case. Two hundred and forty participants were asked to read a fictional story about such a case. The degree of physical injury of the victim (i.e., minor or permanent damage) and the subsequent truth (i.e., the person was guilty or not) were manipulated. After reading the scenario, the participants were asked to rate their desire to avoid the indicted person and to estimate the risks of either gazing at him or having a conversation. Consistent with Error Management Theory (EMT), the strongest false alarm effect was obtained against having a conversation with a person who was actually guilty as well as when the physical injury of the victim was more severe. We also confirmed false alarm effects in some conditions where the indicted person was not guilty. These results indicate that the general tendency to avoid a person who possibly threatens one ’s safety, as suggested by EMT, could be applicable to situations of interaction with the former accused in a criminal case.

Three theories have been proposed in behavior analysis to explain the establishment of stimulus equivalence. Sidman's (1994) equivalence relation theory suggests that stimulus equivalence is a fundamental behavioral function caused by reinforcement contingencies, and asserts that learning is unnecessary for its establishment. In contrast, the relational frame theory (RFT) suggests that stimulus equivalence results from previous learning regarding many different stimulus-relationships. On the other hand, the naming theory focuses on the naming process, or the circular relationship between the behaviors of the speaker-listener. The latter two theories hold that verbal learning is necessary for the formation of stimulus equivalence. Moreover, naming theory suggests that equivalence relations are formed by verbal responses, whereas the other two theories suggest that naming is the same behavioral process as equivalence. In conclusion it is suggested that analysis of stimulus function is crucial to understand cognition and language.

In this issue of the Cognitive Studies, we invited a paper titled “Understanding consciousness through category theory” by N. Tsuchiya and H. Saigo. In this paper, they illustrate their intriguing challenge for a new scientific approach to consciousness on the basis of category theory. Their idea and claim are potentially attractive for research on consciousness, but some readers may have a difficulty to evaluate them, due to its multi-disciplinary nature connecting neuroscientific findings on consciousness and category theory. Thus, the editorial board of the Cognitive Studies also invited the six experts from different areas to provide a variety of discussions and comments on the paper by Tsuchiya and Saigo.

We investigated to what extent humans are sensitive to snakes and spiders in a visual search task. In Experiment 1, fear-relevant deviants (snakes or spiders) were detected faster among fear-irrelevant backgrounds (flowers or mushrooms), than vice versa. Moreover, the detection of the fear-irrelevant target from snake backgrounds was significantly slower than that from spider backgrounds. It indicated that snakes held the attention more strongly than spiders did, that interfered with the effective visual search. In Experiment 2, fear-relevant animals (snakes or spiders) were compared with fear-irrelevant animals (birds or koalas). Fear-relevant animals were detected faster among fear-irrelevant animals, than vice versa. In addition, snakes were detected more rapidly than spiders, suggesting that snakes captured attention more strongly than spiders did. Furthermore, detection of the fear-irrelevant target (birds or koalas) from snake backgrounds was significantly slower than that from spider backgrounds. Again, it was indicated that snakes held the attention more strongly than spiders. We discussed our differences of the sensitivity to snakes and spiders in terms of evolutional origins of detecting hazardous animals.

The aim of this article is to provide references to cognitive scientists, who are interested in learning category theory and using it in their research. This article consists of the three sections, question-and-answers on category theory, utility of category theory on cognitive science, and tutorial materials. In the question-and-answers on category theory, we answered to questions, with which beginners of category theory may come up. In the utility of category theory on cognitive science, we raised the three items of utility of category theory in building cognitive models. The learning materials share the books, slides, and videos on the web, recommended to start with.
