| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study explored the "watching eyes effect," an effect of eyes on pro-social behavior, by conducting nine experiments (including one experiment applying an eye tracking device) and the meta-analysis of previous works on this issue. In a series of studies, the presence of "eyes", despite the fact that fake eyes (such as illustrations or pictures of eyes) were used as the experimental stimulus, had specific effects on pro-social behavior. However, the effect size were not so large at a constant basis, but changeable depend a great deal on various conditions, such as the features of eye stimuli, the types of pro-social behavior, and so on.
