Dietary Tryptophan Ratio and Suicide in the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand
It was hypothesized that when relative dietary intake of tryptophan per capita is low compared to certain other amino acids, less serotonin is formed in brain neurons, and suicide rates tend to be high. The hypothesis was supported for males and for both sexes combined
Commodore Perry and the Japanese: A Study in the Dramaturgy of Power
A study of face-to-face interactions between Commodore Perry and his subordinates on the one hand, and Japanese on the other, reveals that Perry consistently displayed power in a well-calculated manner in order to make the Japanese open the country. The Japanese were completely manipulated by him, and they yielded to his demand and opened the country. The American and Japanese documents of the time are analyzed in terms of Goffman's dramaturgical…
Psychoanalytic aspects of Japanese militarism
When the Japanese were faced with the threat of the West in the Mid‐19th century, they identified with the West as the aggressor. They also tried to deal with the crisis by conceiving of the East as a whole against the West. But after acquiring the modern military, the Japanese began to look at themselves as a “Western” colonizing power as a result of the identification. However, in reality, they began to realize that they were rejected by the We…
Japanese Responses To the Defeat in World War Ii
To learn about the defeat in World War II was a most intense shock to the Japanese. Various psychological responses developed, and some committed suicide. Defense mechanisms such as denial, negation, isolation, rationalization, intellectualization, and regression were observed. The conditions of the occupation were instrumental in letting the Japanese identify with the Occupation Forces in general and General MacArthur in particular, and identifi…

Popular Culture in Japan: A Psychoanalytic Interpretation
Path Analysis and Hologeistic Research1
Two methods of causal analysis have become popular: the Simon-Blalock method and path analysis. The Simon-Blalock method is a "weak" form of path analysis, whereas more information can be deduced by using path analysis. The Driver- Massey data, examined earlier by the Simon-Blalock method, were reanalyzed by path analysis. The result shows that a more complicated path analytic model gives a better fit with the data, and also yields additional inf…

Men's Heterosexual Fear Due to Reciprocal Inhibition
A model of men's heterosexual fear is presented by using Carol Ember's cross-cultural data. Unlike Ember's model of a psychoanalytic causal chain, in this model men's heterosexual fear is mostly explained directly by both food shortage and mother-child sleeping arrangements in terms of reciprocal inhibition and reinforcement as conceived within the framework of behavior therapy. The two models are examined by path analysis, and this model shows a…
Social Contact Versus Bodily Contact: A Qualitative Difference Between Father and Mother for the Son's Masculine Identity
The relative influence of father and mother on the son's acquisition of masculine identity was studied by examining one hundred eleven sample societies from Whiting's (1964) data. The practice of circumcision was seen as a rectifying mechanism to let boys acquire a masculine identity, and its presence was considered an indication of mother-oriented personality de velopment among them. The result suggests that the father is influential when he sle…
Significance of the Father for the Son's Masculine Identity
The significance of the son's insufficient contact with his father during infancy in regard to circumcision and segregation at puberty was examined. It was found that among polygynous societies in which each co-wife lives in a separate quarter with her children, where they have limited contact with their father, males are significantly more likely to be circumcised or segregated. The arrangement of separate quarters for co-wives appears to be a k…
Living Quarter Arrangements in Polygyny and Circumcision and Segregation of Males at Puberty
Several studies (Burton and Whiting 1961; Stephens I962; Whiting I964; Whiting, Kluckhohn, and Anthony 1958) indicate that circumcision and segregation of males at puberty are associated with a very close mother-son relationship. These works show that if a male child is closely tied to his mother due to exclusive mother-infant sleeping arrangements and/or a long post-partum sexual taboo, he is very likely to undergo an initiation rite, in which c…
A Function of Marriage Ceremony
A Formal Model of Syncretism in Scales
The concept of syncretism in music has gained fairly wide acceptance. Even so, due to the lack of sufficient empirical data, there have been very few relevant theoretical studies. We do have some pertinent overall ideas, however, and it should be possible to build a tentative model of syncretism on the basis of what we do know about the process. This paper makes such an attempt
An Axiomatic Model of Self
This paper deals with a hypothetico-deductive model regarding the 'self'. The model consists of 12 circular propositions, involving the variates of (1) phenomenal field, (2) situational symbol, (3) balance, and (4) conformity. The self organizes a 'phenomenal field' under a 'situational symbol', and his 'balance' depends on the extent he experiences a disturbance in the phenomenal field. The performance of the situational symbol is 'con formity'.…

fortissimo, lasting for several measures which may be followed by an instrumental solo with other instruments providing harmony and rhythm. This is followed by a second tutti lasting again several measures. After this introductory passage by the orchestra, a vocal solo begins and the orchestra plays the accompaniment. In spite of these obvious similarities to Western popular music, anyone who is familiar with European music and unfamiliar with ka…
