Outline of Research at the Start

The overall purpose of the proposed study is to examine whether Japanese nationals and European Americans differ in self-reported social anxiety, independent/interdependent self-construals, and selective attention toward social threat, and how self-construals and selective attention may help explain higher social anxiety among Japanese nationals. Both correlational and experimental methods will be used to address this overall purpose.
