Outline of Final Research Achievements

It is the essential with the recovery from delinquency to reinforce “the ability of not-affected the depressive negative emotions in one's mind”. If they encountered to the difficult situations, the non-delinquency group took the power for confronting the anxiety by the self-suggestion “I could do it well”. On the other hand, the delinquency group took the power for confronting the anxiety by the self-suggestion "I did not feel any loneliness and anxiety". Delinquents encouraged themselves by denying loneliness and anxiety. We discussed that the first step of the recovery from delinquency was to recognize loneliness and anxiety.
