Proposing heightened emotions social media dependency model
This theoretical paper extends Media System Dependency theory to better account for affective dynamics in today’s social media environment. We introduce the Heightened Emotions Social Media Dependency Model to explain how pervasive ambiguity contributes to elevated emotional states, which in turn intensify individuals’ dependency on social media across various goal domains. The model highlights a reciprocal relationship between heightened emotion…
Assessing the universality of face needs across China, Japan, Korea, and the U.S. using an inductive approach of face needs measurement
This study, using an inductive approach, aims to measure face needs across divergent cultures in order to (1) revisit the common practice of accepting the universality of face needs, (2) explore the impact of holism and cognitive relativity on the relationships among nationality, gender, and face needs, and (3) explore divergent structures of face needs across cultures. A total of 924 participants were recruited from China (n = 263), Japan (n = 1…
Intergenerational communication satisfaction among Japanese Americans through communication accommodation
Previous intergenerational communication studies paid only scant attention to acculturation orientation differences in communication between different age groups within a single culture. Many co-cultural groups in the U.S. are encountering emerging acculturation orientation differences between generations. The present study focused on one co-cultural group (Japanese Americans) to gain an understanding of the implications of multiple cultures on t…
When Age and Race/Ethnicity Salience Meet
Using Communication Accommodation Theory as a theoretical framework, the present study investigated the role of group salience (i.e. race/ethnicity salience and age salience) when young and middle-aged Japanese Americans communicate with older Japanese Americans. A total of 186 young and middle-aged Japanese Americans’ data were collected. The results found that self-perceived avoidance communicative behaviour mediated the relationship between ol…
Narcissism as a predictor of number of selfies
Social Networking Sites (SNS) user behavior has been discussed in association with SNS user personality characteristics, such as narcissism. However, gender and cultural influences on the relationship between selfie posting on SNS and narcissism remain unclear. Thus, the present study included gender and culture to investigate the relationship between narcissism and selfie posting using 232 Japanese and 481 American college students. The main fin…
A Cross-Cultural Approach to Environmental and Peace Work
Protecting the environment and nurturing peace are global concerns requiring scholarly attention across and within cultures. This essay proposes that cross-cultural exchange serves as an invaluable approach to the goal of communicating about creating a healthy environment and everyday peace. We examine how Wangari Maathai interpreted the meaning and purpose of Mottainai as a global call to save the environment. Mottainai is an ancient Japanese co…

Japanese College Students’ Media Exposure to Sexually Explicit Materials, Perceptions of Women, and Sexually Permissive Attitudes
The present study examined Japanese college students’ ( N = 476) use of sexually explicit material (SEM) and associations with perceptions of women as sex objects and sexually permissive attitudes. Results indicate that Japanese college students used print media most frequently as a source for SEM followed by the Internet and the television/video/DVD. Male participants used SEM significantly more than females. In addition, sexual preoccupancy med…
