    In the questionnaire of 98 items which were selected from 6 major personality areas: Cognitive, temperamental, motivational, way of life, social intelligence and the residual area, we found 7 factors in each of 2 groups consisting of 47 industrial foremen and 75 college students. Those 7 factors in the industrial foremen group and 5 factors in the student group were corresponded to Kretschmer's 3 basic types. The 2 new factors found in the student group were named optimistic and irritable-egoistic respectively.

    108 naive kindergarten children were given one of the 3 incidental learning conditions which were the presentation trials of 2, 4 and 8 times. Group CC assigned CC (central colored) and Group IC assigned IC (incidental colored) were compared with Group ST assigned ST (non colored, standard), in terms of the central and incidental learning scores (CLS and ILS), respectively. It was found that ILSs obtained in both Group IC and Group ST were consistent with over 3 levels of presentation trials, while the scores obtained in Group CC increased as the number of times of presentation trials increased and that the color had no facilitation effect. These results were discussed in terms of the “2 stage model” which was proposed by Maccoby and Hagen et al. on the selective attention in children's incidental learning.

    Effects of signal-shock contingency probability on stress pathology were studied with 2 regions of electric shock and with (a) only sound signal presentations (NS), (b) unrelated presentations of the signal and tail shock (TS) or foot shock (FS) (NPS), (c) signal presentations all of which were paired with the TS or FS (100PS), or (d) signal presentations, 50% of which were paired with a TS or FS (50PS). Rats in NPS and 50PS groups with TS showed more stress-induced pathology than animals in the 100PS group with TS. However, the 100PS group with FS resulted in greater gastric lesions than NPS, 50PS, or NS group. The interaction between shock region and signal-shock contingency probability plays an important role.

    In Exp. I, right-handed Ss made the “same” or “different” judgement to paired digits serially presented to the right and left visual field, and exhibited erroneous judgements in the left visual field lead condition. These results suggest the left hemisphere superiority. In Exp. II, the Ss were requested to make the “same” or “different” judgement and to press a key as fast as possible to the paired line orientation. The right visual field lead condition produced more errors than the left visual field lead condition. This suggests the right hemisphere superiority. But no difference appeared between both conditions in the reaction time. The opposite hemispheric superiority, found in perceiving verbal and non-verbal materials in the 2 experiments, would be attributed to the basic difference in “perceptual” process.

  • GENERALIZED AND LOCALIZED COMPONENTS OF EEG SPECTRA IN THE NORMAL AND THE MENTALLY RETARDED CHILDREN

    The purpose of the present study was to elucidate the developmental properties of EEG in the normal and the mentally retarded children through regional differences and regional interrelationships. The localized components appearing at 1 or 2 regions tended to show low coherences in relation to the occipital region. The generalized component, observed over all regions, indicated lower coherences in the theta component than in the alpha one. It may be inferred that the theta component shown in the developing children may be differenciated from the component around 10 Hz.

    Children of 5, 6 and 7 years participated in this experiment which was designed to test the hypothesis that memory and perception are functionally undifferentiated in young children. The Ss in each age group were divided into 3 subgroups for 3 different task conditions of MM, LL and ML: In MM, children were assigned memory tasks at both 1st and 2nd stages; and attention tasks in LL. In ML, children were given memory tasks at 1st stage and attention tasks at 2nd stage, The result obtained supported the hypothesis: 5-year-old children showed the same level of recall through 3 conditions, 6-year-old children tended to recall more items under MM than LL, and 7-year-old children recalled more items under MM than either ML or LL in the 2nd stage.

  • COMPARISON OF RESPONSE PATTERNS BETWEEN NORMAL SUBJECTS AND SCHIZOPHRENIC PATIENTS

    This experiment attempted to analyse eye movements (opthalmograph) when Ss freely observed 7 types of stimuli projected on the screen. 2 kinds of Ss, a normal control group (5 males, 5 females) and a schizophrenic experimental group (6 males), participated and their response patterns were compared. The results indicated that the schizophrenic group was inferior to the normal Ss in the number of fixations, the mean duration of single fixation, the scan path patterns of the eye mark, the frequency changes of the eye movements within a presentation time, and the dispersion of fixations. These results seemed to show that the schizophrenic group was not able to process much information, and had poor contact with the outer world.
