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.

Research in psycho-oncology has focused on how cancer affects the mental condition of cancer patients, their families, and medical staff, and how the mind and behavior affect the progression of cancer. Psycho-oncology research has developed readily since the 1980s, to address the psychological distress of cancer patients by supporting them psychologically. Research on psychological distress of cancer patients during the clinical course of the disease has identified vague anxieties related to uncertainty. However, each cancer patient is unique in how they experience psychological distress, and therefore, research has focused on the effects of psychological characteristics as factors that influence individual differences. Studies of risk factors for psychological distress in breast cancer patients have identified psychological characteristics, such as the tendency to suppress emotions, trait anxiety, life stress experiences, and coping, as risk factors. Several forms of psychotherapy are available for cancer patients, including psychotherapy for emotional suppression, problem-solving therapy, relaxation, and group therapy. To date, the efficacy of psychotherapy for cancer patients has been investigated through randomized trials mostly in Western countries. It is hoped that such studies would be undertaken in Japan in the near future.

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.

This study clarifies how past life events and expected future events relate to ikigai, the Japanese word for one's sense of purpose in life. University students (n=450) responded to a questionnaire on purpose in life (PIL) and important life events. Participants were asked whether they had experienced any important life events in the previous three months, and whether they expected to experience any in the coming three months. The following was found: (1) The expectation that a negative life event would occur relates more closely to ikigai than does past negative life events. (2) When given expectations of positive future events, subjects who felt low ikigai as a result of many negative life events tended to have a greater increase in ikigai than subjects who already felt high ikigai as a result of many positive life events.

The relationship between the degree of ikigai (the Japanese word for one's sense of purpose in life: Kumano, 2005) and views on life and death were investigated. Participants were 1,137 college students (635 males and 502 females). The degree of ikigai was evaluated by using the Purpose In Life test (PIL test) developed by Crumbaugh and Maholick (1964, 1969). We used Part-A of this questionnaire that is composed of 20 questions. Additionally, views on life and death were assessed by a questionnaire composed of five questions that was developed by he authors, which referred to life after death, reincarnation, life lesson, soul mate, and the law of causality hypotheses. Results indicated that the mean PIL score for both sexes was 92.1±16.6, with the mean female score being higher than the male. The histograms of responses to the views on life and death questions indicated bimodal distributions, i.e., responses tended to be “believe or not believe.”Females tended to choose “believe the hypotheses” more often compared to males. The group that responded “Yes” to the questionnaire on the views on life and death tended to have a higher PIL score than those that responded “No”. These results suggest that people who believe the spiritual hypotheses tended to have higher ikigai.

Relationships among spirituality, benefit finding from illness experiences, anxiety, depression, and level of physical symptoms were investigated in cancer patients, and predictors of spirituality were examined. Cancer patients (N=30) in an oncology ward of a general hospital completed the Japanese Benefit Finding Scale (JBFS) to assesses benefits, the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Sp (FACIT-Sp) to assess spiritual well-being, the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) to assess anxiety and depression, and the Anderson Symptom Inventory (ASI) to assess symptom levels. Results indicated that the FACIT-Sp score was positively correlated with each subdomain of the JBFS, and negatively correlated with ASI and HADS. Moreover, “Role and Priority” was the most important predictor of FACIT-Sp. These results suggest that support by medical staff for benefit finding from illness experiences contribute to promoting spirituality. Moreover, “Role and Priority” might be particularly important for spirituality.

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.

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.

This study investigated the role of health psychology in preventing re-offending in the Japanese judicial correction system. The study also examined initiatives taken after legal amendments regarding cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). The judicial correction system has emphasized efforts to improve the health of offenders. However, results of studies on the efficacy of CBT in preventing recidivism have been inconsistent. Moreover, research has shown that the role of health psychology in reducing re-offending has been unreliable. Therefore, functional analysis of CBT was used to consider roles of health psychology that are applicable to preventing re-offending.

Affect dysregulation is a highly significant construct among transdiagnostic pathological factors. This review first makes a brief introduction to the historical background of research and practice related to child abuse trauma and dissociation. In preceding studies, complex PTSD resulting from chronic and relational trauma was a focal construct and researchers have already adopted transdiagnostic perspectives. Subsequently, the current state of research on affect dysregulation related to child abuse trauma and dissociation are outlined. Moreover, critical commentary, especially regarding the conceptual and terminological variety and inconsistencies in research on affect dysregulation, is provided. Finally, current issues related to this topic are identified for further exploration.

Increased participation in sports has been shown to have a positive linear relationship with athletic injuries. Recent studies conducted by health and sport psychologists have suggested that injured athletes may experience mood disturbances and lowered self-esteem. The purpose of this paper is to survey the existing literature which has examined the psychological effects of athletic injury, to explore recent trends, and to discuss where this type of research is heading in the future. Firstly, athletic injury is discussed as a stress factor which may bring about changes in psychological responses.This topic is discussed by comparing two studies which respectivery employ cross-sectional and longitudinal research designs. In the next section, stage and cognitive-appraisal models of psychological response and change due to athletic injury are presented, and studies employing these models are reviewed. It is been shown that cognitive-appraisal models may be more suitable for explaining the psychological change in injured athletes than stage models. Finally, methodological issues surrounding research of this nature are discussed, and ideas for future psychological studies of athletic injury, such as psychological intervention for injured athletes,are examined.

This study (1) developed the Japanese version of the Inventory of Statements About Self-injury (ISAS), a tool for assessing the functions of nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI), and (2) classified NSSI in adolescents based on its functions. We administered a questionnaire to a community sample and gathered 592 responses, including those of 267 undergraduates who had experienced NSSI. The results of factor analysis indicated that the Japanese version of the ISAS was different from the original and was composed of three factors: “Distress coping functions,” “Interpersonal influence functions,” and “Identity maintenance functions.” Cluster analysis of the Japanese version of the ISAS scores indicated four clusters: “Habitual cluster,” “Distress coping cluster,” “Overlapped identity maintenance cluster,” and “Overlapped interpersonal influence cluster.” Each cluster’s clinical features indicated that the more the functions overlapped, the more severe were risks of suicide, anxiety, and depression. These results indicated that the significance of NSSI functions’ assessment was related to their overlap. These results suggested the usefulness of the functional approach to treatment.
