    In this study, the cognitive-affective aspects and function of nostalgia were examined, based on individual differences and age-related changes. In Study 1A, the participants rated the centrality of features of nostalgia and natsukashisa (Japanese word for nostalgia), which were classified as central (i.e., autobiographical memory and positive emotion) or peripheral (i.e., negative and mixed emotion). In Study 1B, we developed the Positive–Negative Nostalgia Proneness Scale, based on the positive-negative features of nostalgia. The results showed that negative nostalgia proneness decreased with age; however, positive nostalgia proneness increased with age. In Study 2, negative nostalgia proneness was correlated with rumination and loneliness. Positive nostalgia proneness was correlated with happiness and nostalgia triggers (e.g., people/place and media), which increase with age. In Study 3, the presentation of nostalgic pictures increased familiarity and positive nostalgia proneness, and subsequently increased perceived social support and life satisfaction. In Study 4, positive nostalgia proneness affected the positive functions of nostalgia, and subsequently affected life satisfaction. These positive functions of nostalgia increased with age. These age-related changes are consistent with the socioemotional selectivity theory. We discuss potential future research addressing mere-exposure effects, autobiographical memory, cross-cultural, and aging studies.

    Previous studies have shown that long-term exposure to stimuli and the interval after the exposure evoke nostalgia for the stimuli, and that the massed presentation and the interval promote the mere exposure effect. This paper introduces three experiments that manipulated the presentation schedule in long-term contact and two experiments that manipulated participants’ optimism/pessimism and social power. These experiments showed that nostalgia and the mere exposure effect were aroused by long-term mass presentation and the massed presentation to optimistic participants who had undergone a high-power operation. However, these results may have a very limited effect.

    The present study aimed to theoretically explain the phenomena of aestheticization of autobiographical memory. The phenomena were classified according to valence: the aestheticization of positive autobiographical memories and the aestheticization of autobiographical memories consisting of positive and negative aspects. The aestheticization of events or scenes of past eras was also examined. Each aestheticization type were considered to have two aspects: (1) pleasure and liking and (2) an aesthetic evaluation. The following theories were examined: theory of new experimental aesthetics, applied fluency theory, applied appraisal theories of emotion, and applied regulatory focus theory. The results showed that, although the first and the third types of aestheticization were able to be explained by the theory of new experimental aesthetics, the second type could not be explained by it. Among the other three theories, only applied appraisal theories of emotion, which include the concept of the self, were considered to explain pleasure and liking in all three types. However, they did not explain aesthetic evaluation. Incorporating the concept of the self into explanations of aesthetic evaluation is needed for further studies.

    The purpose of this study was to review the research regarding autobiographic memory supporting nostalgia. First, triggers of nostalgic feeling were introduced from everyday life and were used in experimental conditions. Second, the mood congruent effect and mood incongruent effect were introduced, which are associated with nostalgic feeling. With a focus on distorted or reconstructed autobiographic memory, we then introduced research investigating the influence of retelling recalled autobiographic memory, the influence of attitudes of a listener during the telling of autobiographic memory, and the influence of conversation between two people on distortion or reconstruction of the autobiographic memory. Finally, future development in the research field was discussed.

    This paper discusses the relationship between tempo-spatial representation and nostalgia in narrative comprehension. First, the temporal and spatial dimension in mental representation in narrative comprehension is reviewed. Readers construct the tempo-spatial framework while reading stories. This framework is fundamental to the reader’s mental representation in narrative comprehension. Second, how subjective nostalgia influences narrative comprehension is discussed. The feeling “nostalgia” facilitates the integration of temporal passages and different spatial layouts. Third, in this study, we showed the future direction of research—especially, the application to understand individuals with highly sensitive person characteristics. The possibilities of clinical application toward subclinical population were considered as a future direction.

    Nostalgia is a complex emotion that involves remembering events experienced in the past and it is mostly positive, but it is also mixed with some negative emotions. It involves a cognitive process called autobiographical memory; therefore, we first referred to neuroimaging studies of autobiographical memory. Autobiographical memory involves a network consisting of the hippocampus, temporal lobe, posterior cingulate cortex, prefrontal cortex, and cerebellum. We then introduced the few neuroimaging studies on nostalgia that have been reported to date. Most previous studies have focused on the positive aspects of nostalgia. As a result, brain regions associated with the reward system such as the midbrain and striatum and brain regions associated with autobiographical memory have been reported as nostalgia-related brain regions. As a future issue, investigators need to keep in mind that nostalgia has negative aspects such as a sense of loss and regret and to focus on individual differences in the ratio of positive to negative memories.

    Nostalgia is a common emotion that people frequently feel in daily life. Nostalgia is typically defined as “sentimental longing for (one’s) past.” Previous studies have examined its characteristics, function, and individual differences. Nostalgia can be induced by a variety of triggers such as remembering nostalgic events, listening to nostalgic music, viewing nostalgic pictures, and being in certain types of state. A questionnaire is the most popular method used to assess the degree of induced nostalgia, although some studies have used physiological measurements. Furthermore, previous evidence reveals individual differences that affect the degree of induced nostalgia and sometimes alter nostalgia function. In this paper, I review the literature regarding nostalgia induction and suggest future nostalgia research.

    This paper presents a systematic review of the effectiveness of reminiscence therapy (RT) and life review interventions conducted to date in Japan, and it attempts to examine their effectiveness, after introducing two reviews that were undertaken abroad. The results of the meta-analyses showed that RT slightly improved the quality of life and self-esteem of participants without dementia, and RT slightly improved cognitive function and withdrawal in participants with dementia. However, the results from the meta-analyses was judged as having a low quality of evidence. For future research, this paper also indicates the importance of the “art” aspect of RT, the so-called knowledge from clinical practice, which has rarely been evaluated in the research paper of empirical studies.
