| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An online survey to examine modern conception of maturation was performed. More than 10 thousands participants aged 20 to 44 answered some questions. Results were as follows; Generally, perceived adulthood is associated with age, academic career, income level, marital status, and living with parent(s). About 50% of them are living with their parent(s), even among the highest age group. Living with parent(s) has negative effect on them by showing lower self-confident, physically and/or mentally lower health condition, more pessimistic attitude toward future. Economic reasons such as lower income or unstable employment status (or no job) compel them to be co-resident with parent(s). These results suggest that social economic aspect as well as mental aspect is critical for maturation and perceived adulthood in modern society.
