Handwriting samples of a given Japanese text were collected from female student participants (N=50). Affective impressions regarding the appearance of the handwriting samples were assessed using the Semantic Differential technique. A factor analysis revealed three dimensions of impressions about handwriting, which were semantically similar to the dimensions of person perception. Another panel of female students inferred the big-five personality traits of the writers from the handwriting samples. All inferred personality traits were moderately or strongly correlated with at least one dimension of the impressions about handwriting. However, there were no satistically significant correlations between the dimensions of impressions about the handwriting and the writer's actual personality traits as assessed by the Big-Five Scales. The process and the fallaciousness of naive graphological inferences are discussed.

The purposes of this study were to examine:(1) how knowledge and experience about mental disorderprescribe social attitude to person with mental disorder by quantitative analysis; (2) what factors are besides that knowledge and experience which prescribe that social attitude, and whether there is a possibility how that social attitude changes by qualitative analysis. 313 subjects(107 males,206 females, average age 22.7 years) completed a questionnaire. Analyses showed that so rich in knowledge and experience about mental disorder, social distance was close to person with mental disorder, the image was positive.After semi-structured interviews to 5 people(three men,two women,average age 24.0 years) was performed, it was revealed that it is different in social attitudes depending on the difference in the positions to personwith mental disorder. In other words, when the occasion concerned as the social member was near the socialdistance,and the degree concerned with its family was high, the social distance became far. The image had both negative and positive.

We conducted a scenario experiment to investigate the effects of both of self-presentation style and story-telling style about experiences of past failures, on the evaluations of job applicants. Participants (N = 95) read one of four types of application forms which were constructed by combining one of two stories with or without self-discovery through past failure, and one of two self-presentation styles: self-enhancing or self-effacing. Then, impressions about the applicant, such as intimacy, ability, sincerity, obedience, decency, and attractiveness as an in-group member were evaluated. The results indicated that self-enhancing presentations had a positive effect on evaluations of an applicant's ability, and a negative effect on evaluations of intimacy. Moreover, stories of self-discovery had a positive effect on attractiveness of the applicant as an in-group member. Furthermore, there was an interactive effect between the story-telling and self-presentation styles on evaluation of an applicant's decency. We have discussed the effects of self-effacing presentations on the new graduate job-hunting system in Japan.

The effect of perspective taking style on difference-based sense of the self was investigated. Undergraduate participants (n=94) watched a video. When watching the video, participants were either asked to image other perspectives for the target of the video, to. get into the other, or to watch video objectively. After watching the video, their difference-based sense of self was assessed and they also responded to the Perspective Taking scale Japanese version (Nakae et al., 2000; originally developed by Davis 1983a). As with previous studies, factor analysis of the Perspective Taking scale scores indicated a two-factor solution. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis indicated that the more symbiotic the participants were less was the perceived difference-based sense of self. Results suggested that perspective taking as a personality variable was more predictive than perspective taking as an experimental condition.

The Posttraumatic Growth Inventory (PTGI) was translated into Japanese and its reliability and validity was examined. Female undergraduate and junior college students (N=252) completed a questionnaire and valid data were obtained from 213 of these participants. Factor analysis with varimax rotation was performed and the correlation coefficient between PTGI and several scales was calculated to examine the validity of the scale. Major findings were as follows,(1) The Japanese version of PTGI consisted of two factors:(a) Realization of situation surrounding the self and (b) Discovery and certainty of self-competence.(2) The Japanese version of PTGI was unrelated to social desirability and neuroticism. The scale was positively correlated with optimism, extraversion, openness to experience, conscientiousness, and agreeableness.(3) The Reliability of the scale based on internal consistency was satisfactory.

Psychological changes associated with past experiences of romantic relationships in young adults were investigated by examining coping with stress caused by a breakup and reflection. Participants, (N=566; mean age 20.29 years; SD = 1.93) completed a questionnaire. Factor analysis of the responses identified the following four factors related to psychological changes associated with past experiences of romantic relationships: Self-expansion, Open-mindedness, Gender identity, and Confidence. Multiple linear regression analysis indicated: (1) "Independent love" induced positive psychological changes; (2) "Dependent love" promoted Self-expansion and Gender identity in men, and reduced Confidence in women; (3) lack of "reflection" promoted Confidence in men and reduced Confidence in women; and (4) "Avoidance" was an effective method of coping with the stress caused by romantic breakups by both men and women.

Changes in cognitions about the mood; before,during,and after binge eating were investigated. First, a pilot study was conducted with female university students (N=153) and a questionnaire was developed that consisted of items measuring binge eating disorder (BED) tendencies, eating behavior addiction, and changes in cognition about the mood; before,during, and after eating in relation to three factors: depression/fatigue,self-contempt/anxiety, and restlessness. In the main study, female university students(N=205) that were first divided into three groups:control group, pre-BED tendency group, and BED tendency group responded to this questionnaire. Results indicated the following:(1) The pre-BED and BED tendency groups had higher eating addiction scores compared to the control group;(2) The pre-BED and BED tendency groups had higher cognition of mood scores for all factors before, during, and after eating;(3) Depression/fatigue decreased after compared to befor eating in the control and pre-BED tendency groups, whereas this was not the case in the BED tendency group;(4)Self-contempt/anxiety increased after eating in the pre-BED and BED tendency groups.

The present study investigates the hypothesis that people should overestimate the extent to which their make-up changes are noticed by others. In Experiment 1, female participant who was asked to change her make-up overestimated the number of observers who would be able to notice her make-up change. Neither male nor female observers differed in their ability of noticing actor's make-up change. These results provide the evidence of the spotlight effect in cosmetic behaviors. In Experiment 2, a substantial time delay attenuated the actor's overestimation, but did not attenuate the actor's belief about the observer's ability of detection. It supports an anchoring-and-adjustment interpretation of the spotlight effect. Consistently with prior researches, the spotlight effect in cosmetic behaviors seems to be a kind of egocentiric bias. The implications for interpersonal relationships were discussed.

This fundamental study investigated if picture appreciation could be established as a form of psychotherapy by focusing on changes of feeling as an index of the mental effect of picture appreciation, in addition to the language description method, which is a form of picture appreciation therapy. Participants were 30 males and 30 females. We examined whether the mental effect differed depending on the type of picture, its impression and participants'taste. Seven factors were extracted by factor analysis of measures of current feelings. Results indicated that when the impression created by a picture was positive, the mental effect of picture appreciation changed positively regardless of the type of picture.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the feelings of mothers caring for children with autism. In addition, mother's stress and support needs were investigated. Methods: 88 mothers of individuals with autism completed questionnaires on the feelings of mothers with handicapped children, social support, and they freely described the mother's stress and support needs. Results: Factor analysis revealed that mother's feelings consisted of four factors: Pessimistic Feelings, Positive Attitudes to Childcare, Self-Growth, and Inability to Accept Disability. Compared to mothers of children with autism with severe intellectual disabilities, those of children without intellectual disabilities had a significantly greater Inability to Accept Disability. Many mothers experienced the most stress during infancy, and stressors included the challenging behaviors of the child and the difficulty of childcare. Effective sources of support included other parents of children with autism, professionals, and the husband. Conclusion: Positive and negative feelings of mothers of children with autism were identified. Mothers experienced various types of stressors, and these stressors continued beyond adulthood. Finally, the clinical implications of the present results are discussed.
