| Research Abstract |
We investigated changes of brain activities of learners of Japanese according to learning Kanji by using MEG longitudinally. The participants were graduate students living in Tokyo without any learning experience of Kanji in their mother languages. We used Picture font, Korean characters, Pseudo Kanji, Wrong Kanji and True Kanji as visual stimuli. Learners of Japanese as a second language did not acquire graphic rules of Kanji one and half year after living in Japan. Changes in brain activities were found for one learner in 2006 and 2009. The reaction for Pseudo Kanji was as same as that for True Kanji. It appears that the learner could not distinguish between Pseudo and True Kanji even 4 years after learning Kanji.
