| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Stories are a useful educational resource for learning cultural values and wisdom with which we can grow as a social being. The present research, focusing on problem solving processes of antagonists in stories, attempts to identify how Japanese and English story books for younger readers play such a role. We developed a text-based framework based on Systemic Functional Linguistics and a psychological account for cognitive faculties to identify what we call problem solving process unit (PSPU), or a meaning potential unit representing linguistic and psychological concepts. We then proposed a multi-layered analytical procedure of the problem solving processes to investigate how PSPUs, representing relevant linguistic meanings, influences on antagonists' perceptions of events, their affective meanings, and so on, are integrated into texts to encode problem solving patterns in stories. A corpus of Japanese and English stories has also been developed for further analytical use.
