本研究は，教師の休職・退職意識の実態を調査し，教師の休職・退職意識に影響を及ぼす諸要因を検討することを目的とした。調査は公立小・中学校教師455名を対象とし，「教師の休職・退職意識」，「教師ストレッサー」，「教師効力感」，および，「情緒的サポート」で構成した質問紙を用いて実施した。そして，教師の休職・退職意識に教師ストレッサー，教師効力感，情緒的サポートがどのような影響を及ぼしているかを明らかにするため重回帰分析を行った。その結果，「対教師ストレッサー」，「保護者ストレッサー」，「同僚ストレッサー」，「校務ストレッサー」が，教師の休職・退職意識の促進要因になっていることが示された。また，「理解・信頼性効力感」が，教師の休職・退職意識の緩衝要因になっていることが示された。

これまでに，幅広い類型のパーソナリティ障害(PD)が自尊感情の低さと関連することが示されている。本研究では，PDと3つの様態の自尊感情(特性自尊感情，状態自尊感情によって測定される自尊感情の変動性，および自尊感情の随伴性)との関連を検討した。大学生・大学院生66名に対し，質問紙への回答と携帯電話を用いた継続調査への回答を求めた。対象者は，質問紙ではPD特性，特性自尊感情，随伴性自尊感情に関する項目に回答し，継続調査では状態自尊感情の項目に7日間回答した。結果から，特性自尊感情と境界性・依存性・回避性PD特性との負の関連，演技性PD特性との正の関連が示された。また，境界性PD特性は自尊感情の変動性との正の関連を示した。本研究の結果から，特性自尊感情は幅広い類型のPD特性と関連する一方で，自尊感情の変動性は境界性PD特性と特に関連するものであることが示唆された。

The d2-R test, developed as a general achievement test in Germany, plays a prominent role in Europe to measure individuals' concentration and attention in both research and in practice. This study developed the d2-R test for Japanese children, and examined its concurrent validity using correlations between d2-R performance and ADHD-RS scores. The results revealed that the d2-R parameters were significantly related to the inattention and hyperactivity–impulsivity scores on the ADHD-RS. The d2-R saves both time and expense for clinical psychologists as well as researchers in Japan, and is appropriate for mass screenings for ADHD.

Personality disorders (PD) include biases of cognition about the self or others in the general diagnostic criteria. Although the relationships between PDs and self-esteem have been clarified, the relationships of PD traits and evaluation affect about others have not been studied. This study examined relationships of PD traits and assumed competence in 304 undergraduates and graduate students. The results showed that individuals with the assumed type of competence had higher scores for borderline and obsessive-compulsive PD traits than other PD traits. The results suggest that maladaptive personality traits involve not only negative self-cognitions but also negative cognitions about others.

Private self-consciousness is classified into self-rumination and self-reflection according to its motivation. Self-rumination is considered maladaptive while self-reflection is considered adaptive for mental health. This study examined which kinds of interpersonal stress events affect self-rumination and self-reflection. We conducted a longitudinal study with undergraduate students. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that the level of self-rumination was increased by events which relate to an inferiority complex. The levels of self-reflection were not affected by any kind of events. This result suggests that interventions for inferiority complex could be effective for reducing the level of self-rumination.

This study investigated how factors affecting close relationships affect text-message dependency. Japanese high school students (N=169) completed a survey describing variables of close relationships (i.e., perceptions of parental controls, attachment to parents, feelings about friends, and peer standards) and self-perception regarding text-message dependency. A longitudinal panel data analysis showed that emotional reactions and relationship maintenance in relation to text-message dependency were positively affected by factors associated with friendship. Furthermore, stronger reliance on friends and feelings of security were associated with higher incidences of excessive text messaging. Relationships between text-message dependency and parental factors were more complex.

This study examined the relationship between autonomous motivation and anticipated regret in self-control dilemmas. We conducted an Internet survey with 200 employed individuals in their twenties. Participants read scenarios of self-control dilemmas (i.e., work vs. pleasure) and indicated if they would regret their decisions one week after and ten years after their decision. The results revealed that those with low motivation and low autonomy anticipated more regret if they did not choose work over pleasure ten years later, than they anticipated one week after the decision. These results support the belief that “doing the right thing” contributes to hyperopia.

This study examined the relationship between forgiveness (for self and for others) and adult attachment styles. A total of 131 undergraduates completed a questionnaire. The results of structural equation modeling indicated that (a) “forgiveness of others” was negatively related to levels of avoidance, (b) “positive forgiveness of self” was negatively related to levels of avoidance and anxiety (c) “negative forgiveness of self” was negatively related to levels of anxiety.
