| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to clarify the psychological and biological basis of human emotional system that is called the Behavioral Immune System (BIS). A series of researches and experiments suggested that our basic behaviors such as eating and mating could be at least partially associated with the BIS. In addition to that, the findings obtained from our international comparison study and twin study indicated that the BIS is an adaptive individual tendency that is affected and formed both by environment and by heredity.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究の学術的意義は，行動免疫が，身体的免疫システムと同様に，我々の生存や繁殖に有利となるよう進化した適応的な心理的性質である可能性を示した点である．加えて本研究では，行動免疫システムが活性化することで，放射能汚染に関する風評被害や，エイジズムが増長する可能性が明らかとなった．これらの知見は，差別や偏見など，解決すべき今日的な社会問題に対する適切な対処方略を考案するうえで有用と考えられる．
