Perfectionism, Self-Efficacy, and Depression: Preliminary Analysis of the Japanese Version of the Almost Perfect Scale–Revised
The Almost Perfect Scale–Revised is a self-report measure of perfectionism. The present study examined the psychometric properties of the scale's Japanese version and its relation to self-efficacy and depression. Japanese university students ( N = 249) completed the Japanese version of the Almost Perfect Scale-Revised along with the General Self-Efficacy Scale–12 and the Self-Rating Depression Scale. Exploratory factor analysis indicated three fa…
Psychometric Properties of the Multidimensional Aversion to Women Who Work Scale in Japanese Undergraduate Women
The Multidimensional Aversion to Women Who Work Scale is a self-report measure of gender attitudes. The present study examined the psychometric properties of the scale with 213 Japanese university female students who completed the Japanese version. Exploratory factor analyses yielded the same two factors, Employment Skepticism and Traditional Roles Preference, as previously identified. A relivery ability estimate of internal consistency of Employ…
Confirmatory Factor Analysis of the Eating Disorder Inventory
The Japanese version of the Eating Disorder Inventory was completed by 204 female university students. Confirmatory factor analyses supported the 9 factors reported by Shimura, et al. (2003). Further, maximum likelihood factor analysis yielded nine factors, accounting for 48.8% of the total variance. There was also adequate fit for each of the 9 subscales. This study provided additional evidence on validity for this Japanese version
Psychometric Properties of the Life Orientation Test-Revised in Samples of Japanese Students
The Life Orientation Test-Revised (Scheier, Carver, & Bridges, 1994) is a widely used self-report measure of optimism. The present study examined the test's psychometric properties in a Japanese cultural context. 448 Japanese university students completed a Japanese version of the Life Orientation Test-Revised along with measures of neuroticism, extraversion, and depression. Exploratory factor analysis yielded the same two factors, positively phr…
The relation of the anger subcomponent of Type A behavior to psychological symptoms in Japanese and foreign students
The relations of the Type A behavior subcomponents to psychological symptoms were examined. Participants were 429 Japanese college students and 307 foreign students. Type A behavior was measured by the Everyday Behavior Questionnaire, developed in part from several rating scales and composed of four subcomponents: anger/impatience, speed, competitiveness/hard‐driving, and eagerness/interest. The Hopkins Symptom Checklist was used to measure psych…
Role of Personality Characteristics in Coping Behaviors
Role of Personality Characteristics in Coping Behaviors
The relations between coping behaviors and personality characteristics (introversion/extroversion) were examined in 176 Japanese female college students. Multiple regression analysis indicated that extrovertive individuals more often used not only seeking social support but also avoidance than did introvertive subjects. An implication for further research would be to analyze the interactions between personality influences and situational factors …
The role of coping strategies on psychological and physical well-being
The role of coping strategies as moderators in the relation between hassles and psychological/physical well-being was explored. Subjects (N=207) completed the revised Ways of Coping Checklist. Factor analysis yielded one problem-focused coping (problem-solving), four emotion-focused coping strategies (positive cognitive coping, wishful thinking, self-blame, and avoidance), and seeking social support. Multiple regression analyses revealed that the…
Type A Behavior, Hardiness, and Psychological Well-Being in Japanese Women
The effects of Type A behavior and hardiness on depression and physical symptoms in the face of hassles were examined in 107 Japanese female college students. Analysis of variance indicated that Type A females had less depression under low hassles. There were no hardiness main effects or interactions. Neither Type A behavior nor hardiness moderated the adverse effect of hassles for Japanese women. An implication for research is suggested
Type a Behavior, Hardiness, and Psychological Well-Being in Japanese Women
Intervening variables of stress, hassles, and health
The relations between psychological/physical symptoms, hassles, and intervening variables of stress were explored in Japanese subjects. The intervening variables were five coping strategies, Type A behavior, hardiness, social support, and social interest. As expected, there was a strong hassles-symptoms association, and symptoms were related to avoidance, emotion-focused coping, Type A behavior. This study also examined which intervening variable…
Hassles as a Measure of Stress in a Japanese Sample: Preliminary Research
This study investigated the relationship between hassles and physical/psychological distress in a middle-aged Japanese sample of 64 men and 41 women. Hassles correlated strongly with physical/psychological symptoms, supporting the use of hassles as a predictor of adaptational outcomes
