Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is t to figure out the process for collectivistic interdependence. In this study, we planned to classify interdependence as "harmony seeking" (i.e., building harmonious interpersonal relationships) and "avoidance rejection" (i.e., behaving so as not to be excluded by others), and to examine the corresponding event-related potentials for each. However, due to measures to prevent the spread of Covid-19, we were unable to experiment to measure the event-related potentials, and the study was limited to a preliminary examination and reanalysis of the data.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究は、2つの協調性の認知過程の解明だけでなく、対人関係の流動性が異なる3つの地域において事象関連電位の測定実験を実施し、協調性との関連が予想される事象関連電位と対人関係構築能力との関連性を分析する予定であった。実験時期に、新型コロナ感染拡大防止による移動制限が重なり、地域比較も実施できなかった。新たな関係形成の機会を増大させるICTの普及が協調性に及ぼす影響を検討することは今後の課題である。
