| Research Abstract |
1. Effects of the information modalities of cognitive tasks on the EEG asymmetry
when the information madalities was the audio, the parietal-, Wernicke's area- and occipital EEG power showed the significant task-related asymmetries. However, when the modality was the video, the significant asymmetry was observed only in the occipital area. These results suggested that the audio-information were processed on more wider hemispheric area than the video-information.
2. The development of mass media preference scale
Factor analysis of mass media preference scales yielded five factors which were interpreted as preference to represent own experience, preference of print media, preference to persist, preference of imaginary media, and preference of newspaper. The correlation between mass media preference and life style revealed that print media preference students tend to be high in curiosity and imagination and imaginary media preference students tend to be naive and rough in thinking.
3. The fundamental study of the Need for Cognition Scale (NCS)
The fifteen items, which gave high loadings on the first factor and had no sex differences, were selected as the Japanese version of NCS. Also the reliability and the validity of NCS were confirmed by some analyses.
4. Effects of media preference as individuals difference and the information modality of cognitive tasks on EEG asymmetry
High imaginary media preference subjects processed the spatial tasks at the left hemispheric area.
5. Effects of communication modality and media preference on attitude change
Communication modality and media preference had no effect on attitude change, but interaction effect on the cognition of expertness indicated that high print media preference subjects perceived communicator more expert than imaginary preference subjects when information was presented by print media and high imaginary preference subjects perceived communicator more expert when information was presented by video media.
