Development of the Engagement with Beauty Scale‐Revised, Japanese Version ( EBS‐R‐J ), and Confirmation of its Validity and Reliability
Appreciation of beauty is an ability to find, recognize, and emotionally respond to beauty. It is often considered to be associated with several psychological fields, such as forms of the good life, love, transcendence, and exploration. The Engagement with Beauty Scale‐Revised (EBS‐R) is one of the most comprehensive scales for measuring the beauty appreciation trait. In this study, we have developed the Japanese version of this scale (EBS‐R‐J) a…
Effects of alexithymia and its subfactors on emotional response to music
Alexithymia is a trait characterized by decreased emotional response to visual or verbal stimuli. However, Lyvers et al. suggest that alexithymia is positively correlated with the magnitude of emotional response to music (ERM). This study reexamines their findings in two sets of Asian population (China [ n = 344] and Japan [ n = 341]) using online surveys to investigate the subfactors of alexithymia. The Toronto Alexithymia Scale and the Geneva E…
Selflessness
This article aims to illustrate four major concepts shared by the protagonists of cognitive-developmentalism, such as Piaget, Kohlberg, and Kegan, and the primary authors of the sacred writings of the Bahá’í Faith—Bahá’u’lláh, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, and Shoghi Effendi. These concepts include: a developmental teleology, the stage-like nature of development, the importance of an epistemic focus, and selflessness. As the Bahá’í teachings stress a development…
Self-Actualization and the Tragedy of Beauty
A tragedy of beauty has occurred in Western culture and perhaps worldwide: The importance of beauty for a flourishing and self-actualizing life is largely going unnoticed by both the general public and by psychologists. Philosophers, sacred scriptures, and a range of empirical findings point to the centrality of engaging with beauty for a meaningful life and suggest engagement with beauty as a means of pursuing self-actualization. However, not on…
Describing the Neoclassical Psyche Embedded in Sternberg's Triangular Theory of Love
sternberg's Triangular Theory of Love was examined to identify the structure of the psyche implied in that theory. Sternberg's theory posits three components of human functioning to explain the phenomenon of love in close relationships: intimacy, passion, and commitment. Analysis of these three components indicates that they align with a neoclassical model of the human psyche. A neoclassical psyche consists of at least three fundamental, irreduci…
Predicting Adolescent Moral Reasoning from Family Climate
The climate of parental interactions with adolescents at 14 years of age, and its longitudinal prediction to adolescent moral reasoning at 16 years of age, was studied in 40 Canadian families. Three measures of family climate were obtained, including the authoritative parenting style construct of Baumrind, the transactive dialogue measure of Berkowitz and Gibbs, and a novel index of responsiveness to the “child’s voice” in the stories told by par…
Nonviolence and human values
Individuals such as Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr. successfully employed nonviolent strategies to attain significant political goals. Despite the implications of their achievements, psychologists have rarely studied predispositions to nonviolent behavior empirically. The purpose of this article is to link the current literature on human values with the literature on nonviolence from a Gandhian perspective. This study investigates the relation…
