Lifetime prevalence, psychiatric comorbidity and demographic correlates of “hikikomori” in a community population in Japan
The performance of the Japanese version of the K6 and K10 in the World Mental Health Survey Japan
Two new screening scales for psychological distress, the K6 and K10, have been developed using the item response theory and shown to outperform existing screeners in English. We developed their Japanese versions using the standard backtranslaton method and included them in the World Mental Health Survey Japan (WMH‐J), which is a psychiatric epidemiologic study conducted in seven communities across Japan with 2436 participants. The WMH‐J used the …
Reliabiligy and Validity of the Japanese-Language Version of the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (Ies-R-J)
The authors developed the Japanese-language version of the Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R-J) and investigated its reliability and validity in four different groups: workers with lifetime mixed traumatic events, survivors of an arsenic poisoning case, survivors of the Hanshin-Awaji earthquake, and survivors of the Tokyo Metro sarin attack. Evidence includes retest reliability and internal consistency of the IES-R-J. Posttraumatic stress diso…

Japanese Type a Behavior Pattern Is Associated With "Typus Melancholicus"
An examination of the relationship between Type A behavior pattern (TABP) and "Typus Melancholicus" (TM) in 212 coronary heart disease (CHD) patients in Japan revealed that: CHD patients with TABP were significantly more likely to have a depression-prone personality, what Tellenbach calls "Typus Melancholicus"; this tendency was observed not only in CHD patients but also among healthy Type A subjects; and TM is positively correlated with Type A. …
