The deterioration of workers’ mental health and the resulting decline in their work performance have become significant contemporary problems. This study examined the relationship between reinforcement sensitivity (i.e., the behavioral inhibition/activation systems), rumination, depression, and the decline in work performance among local government employees. All the regular and non-regular employees in a local government aged 20 years or older, working over 29 hours per week, responded to a self-administered, anonymous questionnaire survey. We analyzed the responses of 2,223 employees. The results of structural equation modeling indicated that depression was positively associated with a decline in work performance. Also, the behavioral inhibition system was positively associated with depression, partially mediated by rumination. In contrast, the behavioral activation system was negatively associated with depression, which was not mediated by rumination. These results are meaningful for developing a psychological model of depression related to local government employees’ work performance decline.

This study used text mining and examined workers’ psychosocial burdens caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Employees in the Fukushima Branch of the Japanese Trade Union Confederation (RENGO Fukushima) and related workplaces responded to a web-based questionnaire survey. The survey inquired about psychosocial burdens caused by COVID-19, and the participants responded using a free-text format. We analyzed the responses of 215 respondents. Logistic regression analysis indicated a stronger association between female workers and severe psychological distress than male workers. In addition, correspondence analysis showed that workers with severe psychological distress used more words related to “income” and more first-personal pronouns such as “I” or “we.” In contrast, women with college-age children used more words related to “online college courses,” “burdens,” and “anxiety.” These results suggest that female workers with children experience significant stresses associated with their children, and workers with severe psychological distress experience psychosocial burdens related to their income.

This study examined changes in COVID-19 preventive behaviors, including social distancing and hand washing behaviors and related cognitive variables derived from the protection motivation theory and the focus theory of normative conduct. We examined the relationships between preventive behaviors and cognitive variables. We conducted eight panel surveys among Tokyo residents via the internet, each targeting approximately 1,000 people between April-May 2020 and January 2021. The panel survey data indicated that social distancing behaviors decreased immediately after the first state of emergency has been lifted compared to during the emergency period. Moreover, there was no increase in social distancing behaviors during the second emergency period. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses showed that injunctive norms were associated with the social distancing behaviors at all assessment time points. Furthermore, the effect of risk perception was not large. We have discussed the relationship between emergency declarations and behavioral changes.

Worldwide, many people have experienced adversity during childhood, including abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction. Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) negatively impact adulthood health. As a result, ACEs have caused enormous economic losses. However, the effects of ACEs on health have not been studied in Japanese general population. This study examined the effects of ACEs on factors leading to early death, including drinking, physical illnesses such as Type 2 diabetes and cancer, and suicide attempt. An Internet-based questionnaire survey was conducted with Japanese adults (N=988, 488 men and 500 women, Mean age, 39.12 years, age range 20 to 75 years). The results indicated that people who had experienced four or more ACE categories compared to those who had not experienced ACEs were more likely to have a history of smoking, physical illnesses, and suicide attempt. However, all effects of ACEs on drinking were not significant. These results suggest that ACEs have adverse effects on the health of Japanese people of all ages.

Waine, Broomfield, Banham, & Espie (2009) developed and validated the Metacognitions Questionnaire-Insomnia (MCQ-I) to assess metacognition about sleep, which was hypothesized to have a two-factor structure consisting of metacognitive belief about sleep, and metacognitive plans about sleep. However, it is unclear if the MCQ-I reflects metacognition about sleep as hypothesized because no item analysis or factor analysis was conducted. The present study was designed to develop a short version of MCQ-I using selected items and investigate its reliability and validity. A cross-sectional survey using the MCQ-I was conducted with undergraduates (N=330) and 27 patients with chronic insomnia disorder. Results of factor analysis and item analysis of their responses indicated that MCQ-I has a two-factor structure as hypothesized, and 25 items had high internal consistency. Moreover, the MCQ-I-25 was correlated with metacognition about worry, comprehensive dimensions of cognitive arousal, and sleep disturbances. Furthermore, the MCQ-I-25 score was higher in insomnia patients than healthy students. These results suggest that MCQ-I-25 reflects metacognition about sleep and could predict cognitive arousal and insomnia.

This study was designed to clarify the anxieties of parents with children hospitalized in intensive care units. The written, open-ended responses of 197 parents regarding their most severe anxieties were analyzed by text mining. Results identified 87 terms used at least four times in the parents’ texts. The most frequently used terms included “after surgery,” followed by “doctor,” “surgery,” and “sudden turn for the worse.” We classified these words into 13 categories by cluster analysis. We extracted 17 topics concerning parents’ anxiety based on these categories: “anticipating worsening conditions,” “future anxiety,” “doctors’ explanations,” “nurses’ behaviors,” and “uncertainty about the illness,” among others. The appearance frequency of these topics differed based on the severity of the children’s medical conditions assessed by their parents and the type of hospital admission.

The differential effects of rumination on attentional breadth was investigated by experimentally manipulating rumination from the perspective of thought content and valences of thinking-time. We randomly assigned 68 undergraduate and graduate students to negative, neutral, long-, and short-time thinking groups. Then, we administered a questionnaire, conducted a rumination manipulation and the modified Attentional Breadth Task. In this task, there are Close and Far conditions that have a narrow and wide attentional range depending on the location of the target stimulus, and ΔAttentional Narrowing Index (ΔANI) representing the differences between the correct response rate for a target in Close and Far conditions are calculated, such that higher ΔANI values indicate a narrower attention range. Results indicated that state rumination and negative emotions worsened and attentional breadth decreased when participants focused on negative thoughts for a long time. Moreover, a causal relationship between rumination and attentional breadth was suggested. Also, factors narrowing attentional breadth through rumination were identified based on the attentional scope model. It is suggested that future studies should consider whether depression or negative cognitive processing is worsened by narrowing attentional breadth.

The relationship between exercise behavior and the Big Five personality traits in Japanese adults (N=4,313, 2,618 men, 1,695 women; mean age=49.05 years, SD=10.84, age range=20–69 years) was investigated. Results indicated that exercise behavior was significantly correlated with Neuroticism (ρ=−.12), Extraversion (ρ=.18), Openness (ρ=.14), Agreeableness (ρ=.06), and Conscientiousness (ρ=.13). Controlling for sex, age, body mass index, educational level, household income, marital status, and the number of children indicated that levels of Extraversion and Openness were positively and significantly associated with exercise behavior. These findings suggest that personality traits influenced exercise behavior in Japanese people, and corroborated international studies.

The effect of a task that encouraged participants to divide their attention between a present distractive task and previous negative events on improving negative mood and evaluation was investigated. Participants (n=24) were randomly assigned to three task groups: (A) distraction, (B) distraction while recalling negative events, and (C) recalling negative events without distraction. Then, they performed each task for 10 minutes. Negative mood and the evaluation of previous negative events were assessed after induced rumination, task engagement, and resting for two minutes. Analyses of variance indicated no significant differences in negative mood between the groups. However, groups A and B, compared to group C showed a higher reduction in the evaluation of negative events. Moreover, only group B showed a significant reduction in negative evaluation between “after task” and “after resting.” These results suggest that when a person cannot stop ruminating about negative events, distraction with recalling negative events would be more effective for improving negative evaluations than merely continuing to ruminate.

People that grow up in environments of maltreatment often have problems in their interpersonal relationships, and the lack of empathy could be a background factor in their difficulties. However, the results of recent studies have questioned this contention, and therefore, more detailed investigations are required. Experiences of maltreatment are known to negatively influence attachment, which is required to foster empathy. Therefore, we investigated the influence of maltreatment experiences on empathy via internal working models of attachment from a cognitive-emotional perspective and differences in the orientation of empathy. A questionnaire survey was conducted with university students (N=278). Results of structural equation modeling of their responses indicated that experiences of maltreatment increased self-oriented empathy through negative attachment-anxiety (model of the self). Moreover, such experiences reduced other-oriented empathy through attachment-avoidance (model of other). These results suggest that those growing up in environments of maltreatment not only lack empathy but are also unbalanced.

Childhood abuse is known to have a significant negative impact on social perception. Therefore, abused people have highly negative psychosocial adaptation. In this paper, we focused on facial expression recognition among social cognition and discussed interpersonal relationships of abused people. Childhood abuse encourages excessively sensitive reactions to negative facial expressions and inhibits the establishment of good relationships with others. We have discussed these reactions from the following perspectives: (1) adaptation to severe environments, (2) the lack of learning and biased learning, and (3) problems of attachment. We also examined methods of intervention for correcting problems related to the recognition of facial expressions. Finally, we have discussed possibilities for future research.

The appreciation expressed by older Japanese adults receiving care from foreign health care workers and the influence of cross-cultural care on successful aging were investigated. Data were collected from older adults in care facilities with and without foreign health care workers through semi-structured interviews and a questionnaire packet that included the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), the Meaningful Life Scale, a measure assessing perceived health status, and questions on relations with foreign care workers. The results of semi-structured interviews indicated that older adults had positive attitudes about foreign health care workers. Moreover, the “positive feelings” factor in the relationships with foreign health care workers significantly affected the GDS score. It was concluded that foreign health care working in care facilities improved older adults’ well-being and contributed to successful aging.

This study was designed to examine the effects of threat appeal in preventing obesity and non-communicable disease among university students. Participants were Japanese university students (N=395). An analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) examined differences in cognitive variables (threat appraisal, coping appraisal, protective motivation, usefulness, and acceptability) for protecting against threat appeals under threat information vs. threat & coping information conditions. Also, covariance structure analysis was conducted to identify models in which threat appeals promoted protective motivation by enhancing cognitive variables under each condition. The results indicated that usefulness and acceptability scores were significantly different between the two conditions with significantly higher scores for participants in the threat & coping information condition. Moreover, both threat appraisal and coping appraisal positively influenced the usefulness and acceptability of the message in the threat & coping information condition, whereas coping appraisal influenced only the usefulness and acceptability of the message in the threat information condition. Overall, these results suggest the possibility that both types of threat appeal could promote protective motivation.

Appearance Schemas Inventory-Revised (ASI-R) consists of two factors, Self-Evaluative Salience (SES) and Motivational Salience (MS). The influence of these two ASI-R factors on mental health is unclear. The present study explored how these factors that are related to appearance schema influenced stress responses and psychological well-being. A cross-sectional study was conducted with female participants (N=517; mean age=48.30 years, SD=12.81). They completed questionnaires including scales assessing appearance schemas, stress responses, and psychological well-being. Data on participants’ height and weight were also recorded. We performed covariance structure analysis to verify our model. It was hypothesized that appearance schemas would influence stress responses and psychological well-being. The results indicated that SES, which assesses beliefs about how people’s appearance influences their self-worth and self-concept, increases stress responses and decreases psychological well-being. In contrast, MS, which assesses the efforts to be, or feel attractive, reduces stress responses and increases psychological well-being. These results suggest that the two factors of ASI-R inversely influence mental health.

Relationships among social anxiety, fear of negative evaluation from others, avoidance behavior, and self-disclosure were investigated. Undergraduate students (n=308) completed self-report measures assessing the above factors. The results of cluster analysis by the Ward method showed that social anxiety, fear of negative evaluation from others, and avoidance behavior were composed of three clusters: Low social anxiety, Moderate social anxiety, and High social anxiety. A one-way analysis of variance conducted on these clusters indicated that the High social anxiety cluster had lower self-disclosure scores concerning hobbies, and difficult experiences, compared to the other clusters. Moreover, the multiple regression analysis showed that avoidance behavior had significant effects on each type of self-disclosure. These findings suggest that the reduction of avoidance behavior might affect the increase of self-disclosure.
