THE INFLUENCE OF TEXT INFORMATION ON THE PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF TOURISM LANDSCAPE IMAGES IN HIROSHIMA PART 4 : PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATION RESULTS OF TEXT INFORMATION BY JAPANESE STUDENTS AND THE COMPARISON WITH CHINESE STUDENTS

This study examined the associations of Japanese students' social support, and their adjustment in comparison with those of Chinese students. Needed and actual support and the discrepancy between the two were examined, and Japanese professors and other Japanese students were employed as major sources of support. Respondents were 68 Japanese and 64 Chinese students in Japan. Analyses indicated that, although there was no significant difference between Japanese and Chinese students' adjustment, the associations of social support and adjustment were different between the two groups. This study also documented that Japanese professors were important as a source of support for Chinese students more than they were for Japanese students and that the support needed from other Japanese students correlated negatively with the adjustment of Chinese students.

Abstract Background Blue-enriched white light at night has the potential to delay the circadian rhythm in daily life. This study was conducted to determine whether the use of high correlated color temperature (CCT) light at home at night is associated with delay of sleep timing in university students. Methods The survey was conducted in 2014–2015 in 447 university students in Japan and 327 students in China. Habitual sleep timing and type of CCT light at home were investigated by using a self-administered questionnaire. The Japanese students were significantly later than the Chinese students in bedtime, wake time, and midpoint of sleep. They were asked whether the lighting in the room where they spend most of their time at night was closer to warm color (low CCT) or daylight color (high CCT). The amount of light exposure level during daily life was measured for at least 1 week by the use of a light sensor in 60 students in each country. Results The percentages of participants who used high CCT lighting at night were 61.6% for Japanese students and 80.8% for Chinese students. Bedtime and sleep onset time on school days and free days were significantly later in the high CCT group than in the low CCT group in Japan. The midpoint of sleep in the high CCT group was significantly later than that in the low CCT group on free days but not on school days. On the other hand, none of the sleep measurements on school days and free days were significantly different between the high CCT and low CCT groups in China. Illuminance level of light exposure during the night was significantly higher in Japanese than in Chinese, but that in the morning was significantly higher in China than in Japan. Conclusions The use of high CCT light at night is associated with delay of sleep timing in Japanese university students but not in Chinese university students. The effects of light at night on sleep timing and circadian rhythm may be complicated by other lifestyle factors depending on the country.

The Relationship

This study was designed to provide data for comparisons of achievement-related motives and work-related attitudes for Japanese and Chinese students. First, the mean scores on achievement-related motives and work-related attitudes of Japanese students (124 men and 174 women) were compared with those of Chinese students (222 men and 130 women). Chinese students displayed stronger motives and attitudes toward successful achievement. Second, the factorial structures of achievement-related motives for each sample were compared. There were some similarities between samples except one factor based on the motive to avoid failure showed an opposite feature. Third, the relationship between achievement-related motives and work-related attitudes was examined for each sample. A canonical correlation analysis provided two variates, instrumental activity arises from achievement motivation in a work-related situation and hope of success in their competitive lives includes economic success.

In this article, authors analyze zoomorphic metaphor that the Chinese and the Japanese used when they characterize the Russians. On the first stage of study we did associative experiment with questionnaire. 100 of Chinese students and 100 of Japanese students took part. On the base of analyze of answers we selected by three typical zoonymes in Chinese and Japanese culture charactering the Russians. On the second stage of study we have analyzed associations and images of these animals existing in Russian, Chinese and Japanese linguistic cultures. The Russians have images of bear, wolf and panther in Chinese culture and bear, wolf and fox in Japanese culture. It must be marked that all images are ambivalent and have as positive as negative characteristics. Because of the image of animals are different in Chinese and Japanese culture, the associations connecting with these animals are also different. But as the Chinese as the Japanese pay attentions on the appearance, then for the Chinese behavior is important, but for the Japanese color, place of living connecting with cold and woolen cloth that the Russian are dressed are important. The association on contiguity (the wool in animal, the cloth in man) is appeared. The white color is also important because it is associated with color of skin. The color is specified in zoonymes used by the Japanese the next way: bear 28 times, hare 10 times, hamster 9 times, fox 6 times, horse 3 times and squirrel 3 times. As for the Chinese this parameter is not important. Zoomorphic metaphor used in the relation with the Russians is connected with the following parameters. As for the Chinese with -physical characteristics (powerful, strong and, hard); imagination about Russian nation as a military nation; behavior (rough, aggressive and slow); character (open-hearted, kind and brave). As for the Japanese with appearance (beautiful, tall and white); place of living (cold place, many woolen dresses, resistant to the cold); behavior (slow, not pay attention to the surrounding people); size (big); physical characteristics (powerful).
