Abstract
A questionnaire survey and analysis was conducted for 133 women's college students to clarify the current Japanese young generation's acceptability towards foreign people. The Social Distance Scale was made and used In the survey. As a result, young Japanese are willing to accept foreigners according to their social situation (e.g. teacher-student relationship) or their interest in a progressive society, and according not to nationality, race and physical appearance. However, those who tend to show their conservativeness still remain pro-Western.
