  • Adolescence as a Key Period of Identity Development and Connectedness

    Open AccessEmily H Emmott, Yasuo Ihara et al.ARTICLEJournal of Adolescent Research2025Citada por: 1Referências: 7

    Adolescence is identified as a key period for identity development, but anthropological literature hints at cross-cultural variations. Past research suggests Japanese adolescents may experience more identity exploration/confusion compared to Western counterparts, but the reasons behind these findings remain unclear. This comparative study investigates how adolescents in England and Japan perceive and engage with their environments, and aims to id…

  • Exploring factors for melodic diversification of folk songs in the Ryukyu Archipelago

    Open AccessY Nishikawa, Yasuo IharaARTICLEEvolutionary Human Sciences2025Referências: 3

    Cultural evolution of traditional music around the world has been the subject of recent quantitative investigations. Researchers have explored cultural diffusion of music as well as patterns of geographic variation that may result. By comparison, less has been studied about the process of music diversification; in particular, under what circumstances music diversifies is yet to be understood. In this study, we examine possible factors that may fa…

  • Estrous asynchrony causes low birth rates in wild female chimpanzees

    Open AccessAkiko Matsumoto–oda, Yasuo IharaARTICLEAmerican Journal of Primatology2011

    Estrous cycle asynchrony likely functions to elevate individual females' sexual attractiveness during female mate choice. Female chimpanzees show physiological estrus as anogenital swelling. Copulations are concentrated during the period of maximal tumescence, which is called the estrous period. A group of female chimpanzees in Mahale Mountains National Park, Tanzania, was shown to display asynchrony in both maximal tumescence and periovulatory p…

  • Homogamy and imprinting-like effect on mate choice preference for body height in the current Japanese population

    Open AccessM Seki, Yasuo Ihara et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology2011

    This study shows that homogamy for body height is present in the current Japanese population and that it may in part result from an individual's preference. It also indicates a possible role of a sexual imprinting-like mechanism in human mate choice

  • HLA and Human Mate Choice. Tests on Japanese Couples

    Open AccessYasuo Ihara, Kenichi Aoki et al.ARTICLEAnthropological Science2000Referências: 2

    House mice are apparently more likely to mate with individuals dissimilar to themselves at MHC (major histocompatibility complex) loci than with similar individuals. Such negative assortative mating is thought to be mediated by olfaction. Recently, it has been suggested that huma mate choice may be affected by HLA (human leukocyte antigen; MHC in humans), based on the finding that women prefer the odor of men dissimilar to themselves at HLA loci …
