The purpose of the study is to consider the desire for help-seeking about moral harassment in romantic relationship. In the course of the study we focused on the magnitude relation between benefits and costs of help-seeking.We have surveyed four-year college students (N =206) in Tokushima prefecture. They were all asked about i) their awareness of the severity of moral harassment, ii) their desire for help-seeking about moral harassment, and iii) the benefits a nd costs of help-seeking.For every type of moral harassment, we examined how the desire for help -seeking can be influenced by the evaluation of the pros and cons of asking for help -seeking. As for the evaluation here, we calculated it from the benefits and the costs that help-seeking may have. In all cases, the severer they, i.e. the students in our survey, considered moral harassment to be, the stronger their desire for help -seeking tended to become. In cases of moral harassments by control and monitor, and by indirect attack as well, the evaluation of pros and cons had a positive influence on the desire for help -seeking, while, in cases of moral harassments by verbal attack, it seemed that the evaluation of pros and cons did not.Having observed in the study as well as in the preceding studies that moral harassments by verbal attack particularly are more likely to be overlooked, we have thus come to believe that influence that the evaluation of pros and cons has on the desire for help-seeking will change from one harassment type to another.
