This study was to clarify how educational competition has effected on the development of temporal aspect of self in adolescence. Previous studies showed that young people decreased in their hope from primary school to high school. From the developmental viewpoint, it may be owing to development of realism in the settings of educational competition. At the same time, it might suggest that acceptance of anxiety and/or depression that they may face along with growing up in contemporary competitive society can bring them to get their hope, which may be possible if they can receive social support from adults surrounding them. Citizenship is emphasized to be necessary for young people to commit with society in transition to adulthood.
