Australian and Japanese Concepts of Expressive Behavior
This study investigated differences in the concepts of the expression of emotion held by Japanese and Australians for themselves and each other, both in terms of degree and kind of expressive behavior and in underlying dimensionality. Through a structured questionnaire, 80 Australian and 80 Japanese male and female students indicated how they thought they expressed eight emotions on 12 behaviors, and how someone of the other nationality would exp…
International Preferences in Selecting Mates: A Study of 37 Cultures
This study sought to identify the effects of culture and sex on mate preferences using samples drawn world-wide. Thirty-seven samples were obtained from 33 countries located on six continents and five islands (N = 9,474). Hierarchical multiple regressions revealed strong effects of both culture and sex, moderated by specific mate characteristics. Chastity proved to be the mate characteristic on which cultures varied the most. The preference order…
L'être humain dessiné par les écoliers japonais de 7 à 12 ans
Le test du bonhomme a été administré à 233 (121 garçons et 112 filles) écoliers de sept à douze ans, habitant la petite ville Seto près de Nagoya au Japon. Le dépouillement a été exécuté selon la grille d'OSTERRIETH-CAMBIER (1976). Nous avons constaté que 1) les dessins des enfants japonais sont plus sophistiqués que ceux des enfants d'autres pays (Belgique, Mexique, Afrique Noire, ...) - 2) En général, les différences entre les dessins des fille…
Cross-Cultural Perspectives on Foreign Aid Deservingness Decisions
This study presents a conceptual model that describes how aid deservingness decisions are made. The model contains the three concepts of need, similarity, and estimated effectiveness. The model also includes an interaction component involving need and similarity. Two variables were used to operationalize each of the three concepts. A total of 136 subjects from the Netherlands, Japan, and the United States were asked to rate 96 stimulus countries …
Cultural Collectivism and Distributive Behavior
Leung and Bond (1984, Study 2) found that Chinese subjects tended to sacrifice their self-gain to benefit in-group members in allocating a group reward, whereas American subjects did not show this tendency. This cultural difference was interpreted as consistent with a framework of cultural collectivism. The present study provides a stricter test of their framework by comparing two different oriental groups with American subjects, and by measuring…
Cross-Cultural Comparability of Temperament among Japanese and American Early- and Late-Adolescents
The cross-cultural generalizability of temperament, as measured by the Revised Dimensions of Temperament Survey (DOTS-R) (Windle & Lerner, 1986), was investigated by studying metric equivalent relations between samples of Japanese and American early adolescents, and between samples of Japanese and American late adolescents. Similar to findings for the American adolescent samples, nine-and ten-factor models were found to adequately represent the i…
Color Bias among Young Japanese Children
Previous studies of preschool children in the United States and Western Europe had demonstrated a bias favoring the color white relative to the color black, and a bias favoring light-skinned human figures. In this study, procedures used in previous studies were translated and administered to Japanese preschoolers, aged 40 to 73 months. Both types of bias were found among the Japanese children indicating that pro-white and pro-light-skinned biases…
Affective Associations by Japanese Pre-School Children to Black and White Boxes
To determine if early affective associations toward black and white occur in Japan a procedure used for American children was modified and used with 32 Japanese 5-yr.-olds. They sorted 28 objects into “good” and “bad” and “liked” and “disliked” groups and were then asked to decide if a replica of each were in a black or a white box. Unlike the American sample, there was no greater attribution of the positively evaluated objects to the white box t…

Attribution of Responsibility by Japanese and Americans as a Function of Age
Two age groups of Japanese and Americans were experimentally compared in the attribution of responsibility. Forty Japanese and 40 Americans were administered the AR Questionnaire, which incorporates five levels of causality (Association, Commission, Foreseeability, Intentionality, and Justification), two outcome qualities (good and bad), and two outcome intensities (high and low). Half of each nationality were age 9-10 and half were age 11-13; ha…
Development and Validation of the Japanese Version of the Mpi (Maudsley Personality Inventory)
The construction process of a Japanese version of the MPI was described. An attempt was made to construct a test which was adequate for Japanese populations on the basis of item analysis and factor analysis. Normative data were reported concerning the Japanese version of the MPI. The test was found to have a satisfactory reliability. Correlations between 2 MPI scales and some Japanese representative inventories showed high validities of these sca…
Personality Dimensions and Extreme Response Tendency
In a study of the relationship between pathology and rating style, 68 Ss rated 10 Rorschach inkblots on 15 semantic differential scales. Ss were selected from a total of 158 Japanese college students as extreme neuroticism and/or extraversion scorers based on the Japanese version of the Maudsley Personality Inventory. It was found that neurotics made significantly more extreme ratings than non-neurotic Ss and that stable introverts had significan…
Probability of Endorsement of Items in the Yatabe-Guilford Personality Inventory: Replication
For 57 male and 59 female Japanese college students probabilities of endorsement of Yatabe-Guilford Personality Inventory items as true or false correlated .81. rs for probabilities of endorsement for these Ss and Edwards' American were .69 for males and .62 for females. These probabilities of endorsement and Noguchi's social desirability scale values correlated .75 for males, .65 for females (.80 for American males and females). Data suggest con…
