| Outline of Research at the Start |
経済的な水準が同様の他国と比較して、日本は例外的に循環器系の疾患率が低い一方、抑うつや人口減少の程度は高いとされている。本研究においては現代的な生活習慣（例えばデスクワークの時間の増加や通勤時間の長さ、単身世帯の増加など）がどの程度社会関係や身体的健康、毎日の健康維持に関する習慣、心理的な健康に影響を検討する。その際心拍数変動などに着目し、身体と社会関係の関連性を包括的に検討する。

| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
This research examined the cultural, mental, social, and physical correlates of vagus nerve activity- a disease risk factor- in order to examine the connection between health and modern lifestyles (e.g. single-person households) in developed countries. In the 2020 year, five studies gathered empirical data from human participants (N= 1,073 in total). Overall, these studies empirically identified the demographic profiles and mental and physical health correlates of individuals living alone compared to those in other types of households and (2) examined the differences in psychological responses to social experiences as a function of household type, residential mobility, and individualism in Japan. The data yielded from these studies are currently being prepared for publication.
