Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

従来異文化適応研究の主軸となってきた日米間ではなく、ブラジル、トルコ、フランス、セルビア、ベトナム、インドネシア、中国といった、研究が未開拓の多様な文化圏に焦点を当てた。これらの国と日本との国際移動者に心理学的解明の光を当て、開拓的知見をもたらした。その新規性と開拓性が学会賞に結びついた研究もある。教育応用を視野に入れており、グローバル化を支援する介入研究への展開が期待できる。
欧米中心だった異文化適応理論の文化一般性を検証し、特定地域間の移動と適応を詳細に評価し、文化特定性を伴う現象の解明を進めた。総括として、異文化適応研究をアジア発の知見で問い直す提言を行い、その流れの一翼を担った。
