Outline of Final Research Achievements

Martial arts have been compulsory in compulsory education from 2012, so classes in martial arts are being implemented in all junior high schools. The philosophy of martial arts is to refine the mind through martial arts and to form one’s personality, which is required in modern school education. However, in previous studies so far, there are few scholarly data that provide evidence that "minds of students grew" by martial arts classes. Therefore, in this research, we aimed to verify whether self-efficacy, self-esteem, achievement motive can be enhanced by Kendo class.
As a result of this research, it was confirmed that the self-efficacy, self-esteem, and achievement motive of students changed positively even in the long term and short term by the implementation of Kendo classes conducted at a small schools, and the psychological effect of the Kendo class was recognized.
