Intergroup contact in Japan: An exploration of direct, E-contact, and mass-mediated modalities among Japanese and international students

Gao, XJ; Takai, J; Hu, XC

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INTERCULTURAL RELATIONS 98 巻 2024年1月

出版者・発行元：International Journal of Intercultural Relations

This study explored relationship between intergroup contact and willingness to interact with each other among Japanese and international students in Japan, focusing on three contact modalities: direct, E-contact, and mass-mediated contact, from perspectives of both groups. The research identified unique relationships between contact types and intergroup anxiety and common ingroup identity as mediating variables. Key findings include (1) divergent paths between all three contact modalities with intergroup anxiety and common ingroup identity, (2) a more pronounced link between positive contact and interaction willingness among Japanese students, and (3) the dominance of positive over negative contact in predicting interaction willingness. Exceptions to the latter two findings were also explored. The study's nuanced insights offer valuable contributions to the field, guiding effective strategies in improving intergroup attitudes among domestic and international students.

出版者・発行元：Journal of International Students

This study examined the effects of four types of self-disclosure on the life satisfaction of Chinese international students studying in Japan. Using an online survey, the study found that offline self-disclosure predicted life satisfaction both directly and indirectly, mediated by received social support and perceived social support, while the direct effect of online self-disclosure was not significant. All four types of self-disclosures predicted received social support, while the social support obtained from host nationals online did not affect perceived support. The analysis also revealed that the paths were moderated by the length of residence in Japan. Only online self-disclosure positively and directly predicted life satisfaction for newcomers, while only offline self-disclosure did for those who had stayed longer. Offline received social support was perceived as helpful for both groups, while that of online predicted perceived social support only for newcomers. Theoretical implications and limitations were discussed.

Affective and Motivational Accounts of Moralizing C OVI D-19-Preventive Behaviors 査読有り

JOURNAL OF COGNITION AND CULTURE 23 巻 ( 1-2 ) 頁： 149 - 169 2023年4月

出版者・発行元：Journal of Cognition and Culture

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of perceived vulnerability to disease, emotions (disgust, anger), and perceived norms in predicting moral judgments of anti-COVID-19-preventive behaviors in US and Japan. A total of 442 Japanese and 365 American participants completed an online survey. Disgust and anger mediated the link between perceived vulnerability to disease (germ aversion) and moral judgments of preventive behaviors across both cultures. Perceived social norms among friends and family were associated with harsh judgments of anti-preventive behaviors for Japanese but not for American participants. Overall, our results suggest that effective strategies for promoting preventive behaviors may be culturally valid if they focus on the fear for infectious disease and related aversive affect. We also discussed the possibility that some strategies could be characteristic of collectivistic cultures, warranting further cross-cultural comparisons.

An International Comparison of Factors Related to Long Work Hours

Kanai, A; Laurence, GA; Sakata, K; Fujimoto, T; Yamaguchi, H; Takai, J; Suzuki, A; Tak, J

JAPANESE PSYCHOLOGICAL RESEARCH 64 巻 ( 4 ) 頁： 410 - 425 2022年10月

記述言語：日本語出版者・発行元：Japanese Psychological Research

This study aimed to examine psychosocial factors related to working long hours, which causes depression, anxiety, and so forth, including karoshi [work to death]. In particular, the issue of working very long hours and its impacts on employees is seen as an urgent issue in Japan, and by clarifying the factors associated with this phenomenon, we aim to contribute to efforts to identify appropriate mitigation measures. We proposed a model of factors related to long work hours from multiple perspectives, and tested it in six countries: China, Finland, Germany, Japan, South Korea, and the United States. Data were collected via a web-based questionnaire survey. Results of hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that organizational level variables were related to work hours in all six countries, but individual level variables were related to work hours only in the United States. In addition, only in Japan did the maintenance dimension of leadership affect the extension of working hours. Organization level factors, rather than job or individual level factors, should be considered when establishing measures to prevent employees from working excessively long hours.

The relationship between frequency of performing acts of kindness and subjective well-being: A mediation model in three cultures

Gherghel, C; Nastas, D; Hashimoto, T; Takai, J

CURRENT PSYCHOLOGY 40 巻 ( 9 ) 頁： 4446 - 4459 2021年9月

記述言語：英語掲載種別：研究論文（学術雑誌）出版者・発行元：Current Psychology

Two studies investigated the relationship between frequency of performing prosocial acts and subjective well-being. Adult participants from three countries (Japan, Romania, and the US) responded to online questionnaires measuring focal variables. In Study 1, a short scale measuring kindness was devised, and its validity for cross-cultural research was probed. Results revealed that engagement in prosocial behavior was positively associated with empathic concern and subjective well-being. Study 2 showed that the needs for relatedness, competence, and autonomy mediate the relationship between frequency of performing acts of kindness and subjective well-being. The results contribute to the cross-cultural literature suggesting that engagement in prosocial behavior enhances the well-being of the benefactor.

The effect of emotional competence on relational quality: Comparing Japan and Myanmar

Min, MC; Takai, J

CURRENT PSYCHOLOGY 40 巻 ( 2 ) 頁： 782 - 792 2021年2月

記述言語：日本語掲載種別：研究論文（学術雑誌）出版者・発行元：Current Psychology

This study examined cultural influences on relational qualities through intrapersonal and interpersonal emotional competence (EC) for friendship networks (same-sex best friend and opposite-sex best friend), romantic partner, and family members (sibling, mother, and father). Much of the literature on cross-cultural comparison of emotions has been conducted in Western cultures, and a few cross-cultural comparisons have been made between Western cultures and Japan. Relatively little work has been done outside of these countries. This study aimed to compare the significance of EC on interpersonal relationships between Japan, and a Southeast Asian culture, namely, Myanmar, as an exploratory effort outside of the individualism-collectivism continuum, hence focusing on two collectivistic, and Asian cultures. We recruited 721 university students from one East Asian country (Japan) and one Southeast Asian country (Myanmar). We found cultural differences of EC and relational qualities for each target (same-sex best friend, opposite-sex best friend, romantic partner, sibling, mother, and father). Moreover, both interpersonal and intrapersonal EC mediated the impact of culture on positive relational qualities for family members. Intrapersonal EC mediated this effect for same-sex best friend and romantic partner, whereas interpersonal EC did so for opposite-sex best friend. Additionally, interpersonal EC mediated the effect between culture and negative relational qualities for father. Our findings suggest that EC mediates the effect of culture on relational qualities, and that there are cultural differences regarding this effect.

Cross-cultural comparison of university students' emotional competence in Asia

Min, MC; Islam, MN; Wang, LN; Takai, J

CURRENT PSYCHOLOGY 40 巻 ( 1 ) 頁： 200 - 212 2021年1月

記述言語：日本語掲載種別：研究論文（学術雑誌）出版者・発行元：Current Psychology

Emotional competence (EC) refers to individual differences in the identification, comprehension, expression, regulation, and use of one’s own emotions and others’ emotions, (Brasseur et al. in Plos One, 8(5), e62635, 2013) and is known to be culturally construed. Cross-cultural studies involving Asians typically sample one or two cultures as representatives of a collectivistic culture, but we opine to differ, in that these cultures have their distinct character, especially with regard to EC. We investigated the measurement invariance of Profile of Emotional Competence (PEC) with samples collected from four Asian countries, representing three distinct regions of the continent: Myanmar (N = 400), Japan (N = 400), China (N = 436), and Bangladesh (N = 400). We found that the PEC was a robust measure of both intrapersonal and interpersonal EC across these countries. Myanmar showed the highest global EC, followed by Bangladesh, China, and Japan, and significant effects of culture were found in all intrapersonal and interpersonal EC factors. Gender main effect was found in one intrapersonal EC (regulation of own emotions) and four interpersonal EC (identification of, listening to, regulation of, and utilization of others’ emotions), while gender-culture interaction effects were confirmed in two intrapersonal EC (comprehension and expression of own emotions). While cross-cultural studies typically bundle these cultures into one, that of Eastern, we found much variability within them, and they should be deemed independent of one another, especially in terms of EC. The findings enhance our understanding of EC across cultures, in particular with respect to the basis of which interpersonal behavior might differ across these four cultures.

Moralization of Japanese cultural norms among student sojourners in Japan

Takamatsu, R; Min, MC; Wang, LN; Xu, WZ; Taniguchi, N; Takai, J

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INTERCULTURAL RELATIONS 80 巻頁： 242 - 249 2021年1月

記述言語：日本語掲載種別：研究論文（学術雑誌）出版者・発行元：International Journal of Intercultural Relations

This study investigated the relationship between different domains of cultural adaptation among international students in Japan and the moralization of culture-specific norms. Newcomers may adapt certain norms of the host culture and ascribe moral meanings to initially nonmoral activities or objects. Building on the existing model of sociocultural adaptation, we investigated how different types of sociocultural adaptation are associated with the moralization of Japanese cultural norms. For international students in Japan, there are three aspects of sociocultural adaptation: academic, daily living, and interpersonal. Our results showed that cultural adaptation in the interpersonal domain, but not in the academic and daily living domains, predicted harsher moral judgments of behaviors that violated Japanese cultural norms. These findings suggest that international students who are well adjusted in the interpersonal domain gain an understanding of what is sanctioned in the Japanese cultural context and come to see certain behaviors as morally appropriate. We discuss several implications for further investigating the moralization of certain behaviors within the context of acculturation.

見知らぬ他者への利他性の社会生態学的基盤―南北インドの地域差に着目した検討―

<p>開放的なコミュニティの成立には見知らぬ他者への利他性が重要となる。一方で，見知らぬ他者への利他性の多寡は，個人を取り巻く社会生態学的環境によって規定される可能性がある。本研究では，南北インドで社会生態学的環境（農業形態）が異なることに着目し，オンライン調査により，見知らぬ他者への利他性の地域差を検討した。調査では，コストをかけて他者（見知らぬ他者・友人・家族）を援助する状況を描いたシナリオを呈示し，自分や一般的な人が，どの程度援助すると思うかについて回答を求めた。調査に参加したインド人サンプルから，南北インド出身者（N＝180）を抽出し，2（出身地域：南・北）×2（評定対象：自己・一般的な人）×3（利他性の対象：見知らぬ他者・友人・家族）の混合要因分散分析の結果，出身地域と利他性の対象の交互作用が有意であった。単純効果検定の結果，見知らぬ他者への利他性は，南インド出身者よりも，北インド出身者の方が有意に高いことが明らかとなった。歴史的に南インドは稲作地域，北インドは麦作地域とされており，稲作に特有の要因が見知らぬ他者への利他性を抑制している可能性がある。</p>

We investigated the effect of culture, moral discourse, and motivation to engage in prosocial behavior on benefactors’ positive affect. Participants from three cultures (Japan, Romania, and the United States) responded to scenarios in which they could perform small acts of kindness for different targets. A stronger relationship between agentic and obligated motivation to perform acts of kindness, as well as between obligated motivation and positive affect, was observed for participants from Japan, and for individuals with higher endorsement of the Community Ethic. Agentic motivation to engage in prosocial behavior was related to benefactors’ positive affect, regardless of relationship type.

Can imagined contact change intergroup attitude in the long run? 査読有り国際誌

Hu, A., & Takai, J.

Intercultural Communication Studies 29 巻 ( 2 ) 頁： 1 - 17 2020年

担当区分：最終著者記述言語：英語掲載種別：研究論文（学術雑誌）出版者・発行元：International Association for Intercultural Communication Studies

The imagined contact method of cognitively manipulating intergroup relations has been reported to be widely successful in improving attitude toward the outgroup. However, little has been reported on its durability. Study 1 was conducted to test the stimulus scenario, involving 282 students who were given either an imagined contact scenario or a control, featuring Chinese as the outgroup. Pre-post measures of intergroup attitude were obtained. Imagined contact group showed some improvement in attitude. In study 2, the same method was applied to non-student participants (N=134), but this time, measurements were taken before, right after, one week after and one month after administering the imagined contact approach. Results indicated that the effect of imagined contact did not dissipate after one week, and even one month, particularly for the perception of social distance, but not for other measures. We discussed the potential of imagined contact in its application as a viable means of improving intergroup attitude toward Chinese in Japan.
