    It is often assumed that East Asians, compared with Westerners, try to reshape their personal attitudes and expectations to fit the environment rather than attempting to influence realities. A recent review of the literature revises this idea by suggesting that East Asians, just like Westerners, do attempt to influence existing realities, but via subtly different routes: East Asians employ indirect strategies, seek support from influential others, or take a long-term approach to changing the world via self-improvement. This chapter discusses East Asians' tendency to employ various tactics in association with dialecticism, and their default cognitive mode of understanding the self, others, and the environment as changeable, connected, and contradictory. Along with collectivist and interdependent cultural characteristics, dialecticism may have additive or interactive effects on control experiences and psychological functioning in East Asia.

    We assessed self-consistency (expressing similar traits in different situations) by having undergraduates in the United States (n = 230), Australia (n = 220), Canada (n = 240), Ecuador (n = 101), Mexico (n = 209), Venezuela (n = 209), Japan (n = 178), Malaysia (n = 254), and the Philippines (n = 241) report the traits they expressed in four different social situations. Self-consistency was positively associated with age, well-being, living in Latin America, and not living in Japan; however, each of these variables showed a unique pattern of associations with various psychologically distinct sources of raw self-consistency, including cross-situationally consistent social norms and injunctions. For example, low consistency between injunctive norms and trait expressions fully explained the low self-consistency in Japan. In accord with trait theory, after removing normative and injunctive sources of consistency, there remained robust distinctive noninjunctive self-consistency (reflecting individuating personality dispositions) in every country, including Japan. The results highlight how clarifying the determinants and implications of self-consistency requires differentiating its distinctive, injunctive, and noninjunctive components.

  • Regulatory Focus as an Explanatory Variable for Cross-Cultural Differences in Achievement-Related Behavior

    The main claim of the present study is that regulatory focus (i.e., promotion vs. prevention orientations) is an important explanatory variable of cross-cultural differences in actual and self-reported achievement-related behaviors and preferences, which include a component of autonomy. It adds explained variance in behavior above and beyond that of individualism/collectivism (I/C), and mediates the relations between I/C and behavior. Three studies are reported. The first compared Israeli Jews and Arabs on minimal initiation (n = 255), the second compared Israeli Jews and Japanese on creativity (n = 92), and the third compared Swiss, Mexican, and Indonesian samples on preference for mastery goals in education (n = 488). All three studies demonstrated the ability of regulatory focus scales to distinguish between cultures and to serve as meaningful predictors of actual and self-reported achievement-related behaviors. The measured I/C scales were found to be less relevant to behavior prediction than was regulatory focus. In most studies, regulatory focus scales mediated the relations between some of the I/C scales and behavior. The diversity of the measured behaviors and cultures supports the ecological validity of the findings.

    Within-individual variability in self-concepts and everyday personality states and affects was investigated in two experience sampling studies using density distribution and situation-behavior approaches. In all seven cultures sampled, within-individual variability was substantial and self-concept and personality state variability exhibited moderate convergence. Variability in personality and affect states was moderately predicted by perceived need satisfaction in the situations. The density distribution and situation-behavior approaches were moderately convergent in identifying the most variable individuals, but the pattern of cultural differences differed in the two methods. Contrary to cultural psychology perspectives, cultural differences in within-individual variability did not consistently correspond to cultural differences in individualism-collectivism, dialecticism, or tightness. © 2013 Elsevier Inc.

    Japanese and Canadian university students were compared on the changes they wanted in their lives. Contrary to their characterization as self-effacingly relational and group-minded, Japanese were no more likely than Canadians to wish for social or collective goods. Rather, Japanese were more likely than Canadians to wish for money or material goods, and less likely than Canadians to wish for better family relations, increased self-understanding, and improved academic performance. Whether these findings reflect dissimilar cultural priorities, unequal opportunities and constraints, or both, is discussed.

    The place of outsiders-strangers and otherwise irrelevant others - in the cultural logic of a society holds likely consequences for social perception. The authors begin by describing how outsiders are viewed in Western, Japanese, and Chinese societies. Comparing the three groups, it is proposed that the Chinese are most strongly disposed to disregard or ignore those outside their networks of affiliation and practical involvement. To test this claim experimentally, we assessed the incidental memory of Canadians, Japanese, and Chinese students for social targets of differing situational relevance to the perceiver. As expected, the Chinese showed greater memory advantage than the other groups for primary over nonprimary targets, but only when provided with an explicit justification for exclusive attention.

  • How anonymous are you online? Examining online social behaviors from a cross-cultural perspective

    Communication on the Internet is often described as "anonymous", yet the usage of the term is often confusing, even in academia. Three levels of anonymity, visual anonymity, dissociation of real and online identities, and lack of identifiability, are thought to have different effects on various components of interpersonal motivation. Specifically, we propose that cross-cultural differences in interpersonal motivation (autonomy vs. affiliation) are illustrated by choices individuals make when deciding whether or not to remain anonymous while communicating online. Autonomy is often valued in Western societies, whereas Eastern societies tend to emphasize affiliation, suggesting that individuals in Western societies will gravitate toward online communities that allow lower levels of anonymity, while individuals in Eastern societies will be more likely to seek out online communities that promote higher levels of anonymity. The research presented in this article supports this notion, suggesting that we need to consider cultural differences when designing online communication systems and other communications technologies. © Springer-Verlag London Limited 2007.

    Dynamic Social Impact Theory (DSIT) predicts consolidation and clustering at the group level, as individuals engage in mutual social influence processes. The current study expanded the paradigm proposed by Latané & L'Herrou (1996) to examine whether the predictions of DSIT holds under a more naturalistic condition. Unlike Latané & L'Herrou's study, no instruction was given to facilitate or promote compliance. Once a week for five weeks, participants communicated with others through a computer network on two topics of moral dilemmas. Results partly confirmed the effect of the social influence process at the individual level. At the group level, clustering of opinions was observed without consolidation. These results were discussed with implication to theoretical studies on DSIT using computer simulations.<br>

    The current research utilizes the Mouse Paradigm (Vallacher & Nowak, 1994) to measure "dynamism" of the self-concept, or how the individual's self-evaluation fluctuates without external stimuli. This study examined the role of dynamism of the self-concept in the relationship between self-esteem and narcissism. Rosenberg's self-esteem scale, Narcissistic Personality Inventory (NPI), and the Mouse Paradigm were administered to 56 university students. The results showed that dynamism of the self-concept moderated the effect of self-esteem on narcissism. Those with high self-esteem showed higher scores on the NPI only when their dynamism in their self-concept is high. When their self-concept dynamism is low, high self-esteem did not lead to narcissism. The results of this study shows the importance of considering dynamic properties of the self when considering the relevance of self-esteem.<br>

    本研究の目的は、インターネットを通じて社会的影響を与え合う個人がどのようにして態度を変容させるか、またその結果、集団レベルでの集団極性化がどのように生じるかを明らかにすることである。本研究の特色は、ミクロレベルでの個人の情報処理とマクロレベルでの集団における群化、すなわちクリークの創発的生成による集団極性化とを結びつける点にある。集団レベルの枠組みとして用いるDSITは、個々人間の相互作用という微視的なメカニズムの検討と、集団全体の性質の変容という巨視的なメカニズムの解明を結ぶ理論である、という点で社会心理学において異質である。アメリカの社会心理学界のみならず、国際的にもDSITは多くの研究者の関心を集め、その後、理論的な精緻化や展開を試みた研究がいくつか見られるが、そのほとんどはコンピュータ・シミュレーションによる理論的な検討である。本研究では、調査的方法およびインターネットから入手可能なログデータを用いてDSITの実証を行うという点において、既存のDSITを扱う研究とは大きく異なっている。
    2021年度は、ソーシャル・メディアにログデータを用いて、DSITの知見であるクリークの創発的生成と集団極性化が観察されるかどうかを検討するため、2020年度に準備を行ったプロセスを元に、マイクロブログからのデータ収集を開始した。また、個人が持つ複雑な態度の構造をダイナミックに測定し、その動態力学的な特徴を抽出するための実験ツールを最新のコンピュータで稼働させるため、オープン・プラットフォーム上で実装するための環境構築を開始した。

    Online survey was conducted to investigate the relationship between attitudes toward and use of social media and mass media. Quality and quantity of internet use were not necessarily associated with homogeneity or heterogeneity of communication partners On the other hand, those with high online connectedness tended to belong to more groups and more active both on online and offline. They are also more social dominance oriented. The internet use was also associated with lowered trust toward generalized others, and toward other societal institutions. Based on this self-report survey, people do not seek homogeneous others online intentionally.

    This research aims to explore the process of yielding social intelligence in online community. For this purpose, archival data of NIFTY-Serve, one of the most popular online communities in 1990s, were excavated, resurrected, and analyzed. We focused on the overall communication process of “Shinri-Gaku (Psychology)” forum through beginning to end. We successfully resurrected all messages of 6 bulletin boards from the forum in near-perfect condition. To evaluate how social intelligence could be yielded in the forum, both quantitative and qualitative analyses were conducted. The results show that the qualitative difference among social intelligence yielded in the online community reflected that of users. Social network analysis of bulletin board communication using message and reply as a unit of linkage revealed that different network indices correspond to qualitatively different network structure. And we tried to examine a trend of screen-name usage, sorts of names and how they change their name.

    Purpose of this study is to conceptualize the ambivalence of attitudes based on the complex systems theory and dynamical assessment of attitudes, and to examine its nature from a viewpoint of the dichotomy of implicit and explicit attitudes. Using the mouse paradigm, with the hypothesis that systematic processing of attitudes is promoted only when attitude ambivalence is high, theoretical and empirical research was conducted to examine the effect of attitude ambivalence on the level of cognitive processing.

    Amae episodes include actor's inappropriate behavior or request (according to the actor's age, social status, etc.) as well as his/her expectation that the counterpart will accept the actor's inappropriate behavior or request. We predicted, therefore, that the inappropriateness of behavior/request and the expectation of acceptance are essential for observers to perceive the episode as amae. Six video stories were constructed and presented to subjects, who were requested to describe each story without being hinted about amae. The results indicated that, as expected, that the subjects perceived the episodes as amae most when the episodes included both inappropriate behavior/request and the expectation of acceptance by the counterpart (Study 1). Study 2 examined people's perception about three kinds of people who request amae either often, sometimes, or never. The subjects tended to perceive that those who never request amae are competent and independent to a greater extent, relative to those who request amae often or sometimes. However, when it comes to sociability (i.e., kind, cooperative), those who never request amae were perceived as having those traits least. In addition, the subjects liked those who request sometimes most, when they were asked to choose a person they would like to work or have a fun with, indicating that requesting amae sometimes can be adaptive in the sense it promotes positive interpersonal relationships. Despite the fact that those who never request amae were perceived as most competent, the subjects did not choose them as a job partner. Study 3 examined a possible universality of amae across cultures. The results suggest that amae episodes are universal at least to some extent. Future research should examine people's response to amae episodes in more countries both in Asian and the West.

    平成17年度には,平成16年度に作成した,日本語版マウス・パラダイム実行用ソフトウェア,およびデータ処理プログラムを利用し,2つの本実験を行った.第1実験では,社会的態度の対象をリサイクリングおよび同性愛とし,先行研究において得られた知見が適用されうるかを検討した.また,反応速度を用いた測定方法であるImplicit Association Testによって,これらの社会的事象に対する潜在的態度も同時に測定した.この実験では,質問紙尺度による顕在的態度の測定と,IATによる潜在的態度の測定やマウス・パラダイムによる態度の動態的測定を同時に行い比較・検討することにより,態度構造のより包括的な理解を目指した.また,自己を対象とした測定の試みを第2実験として行い,ナルシシズムや抑うつと言った,従来から自尊心との関連性に注目されてきた不適応の問題を取りあげた.高い自尊心と結びついたナルシシズムや,低い自尊心と結びついた抑うつは,自尊心との線形関係を持つことが知られてきたが,果たして高い,もしくは低い自尊心が無条件でこららの問題へと繋がるのかは明らかとされてこなかった.第2実験では,マウス・パラダイムによる自己評価の安定性とIATによる潜在的自尊心を同時に検討することにより,これら問題を持つ個人を,統計的により高い精度で予測することが可能であることを示した.第2実験および第2実験の成果は,平成16年度に行った予備実験の成果とあわせて,アジア社会心理学会,日本心理学会,日本社会心理学会,および日本パーソナリティ心理学会において発表された.

    Implicit self-esteem (ISE) as measured by the Implicit Association Test (IAT) was found to be universality positive in Japan, the U.S., and China. In addition, our study replicated a previous finding that Americans show higher explicit self-esteem on explicit measures of self-esteem than Japanese and Chinese. We also confirmed that ISE is positively correlated with planning fallacy among Japanese, which refers to people's tendency to be optimistic about the outcome of their planning. These results provide support to the predictive validity of IAT among Japanese. The construct validity of IAT and the mouse paradigm (MP) when they were applied to measure self-concept was also examined. The dynamic index of the self-concept as measured by MP was examined along with established self-esteem questionnaires and IAT, which is a measure of ISE based upon response latency. The results supported the validity of MP along with IAT. In addition, the intrinsic dynamics of self-concept and ISE were found to be related. Furthermore, we conducted a study on Mentsu, which is closely related to self-esteem. Mentsu is a public image related to one's social role. We attempted to show the difference between Mentsu and self-esteem, which represents positivity of one's self-evaluation. The result indicated that others are involved in Mentsu episodes more than self-esteem-relevant episodes.
