    Humanness perception, which attributes fundamental and unique human characteristics to other objects or people, has significant consequences for people’s interactions. Notably, the failure to perceive humanness in older adults can lead to prejudice. This study investigates the effect of a target’s age on humanness perception in terms of two dimensions: agency (the ability to act and do) and experience (the ability to feel and sense). We also examined brain activity using a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner in order to understand the underlying neural mechanisms. Healthy university students viewed the facial images of older and younger individuals and judged the humanness of each individual in terms of agency and experience while inside the MRI scanner. The results indicated that older adults were rated higher on experience, and no difference was found in ratings for agency between younger and older face images. Analysis of brain imaging data indicated that positive functional connectivity between the ventral and dorsal regions of the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) was greater when judging the humanness of younger faces than older faces. We also found that the negative functional connectivity between the left inferior frontal gyrus and postcentral gyrus was greater when judging the humanness of older faces as compared to that of younger faces. Although the current study did not show distinct brain activities related to humanness perception, it suggests the possibility that different brain connectivities are related to humanness perception regarding targets belonging to different age groups.

    Abstract Background Previous research on the changes in resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) in anorexia nervosa (AN) has been limited by an insufficient sample size, which reduced the reliability of the results and made it difficult to set the whole brain as regions of interest (ROIs). Methods We analyzed functional magnetic resonance imaging data from 114 female AN patients and 135 healthy controls (HC) and obtained self-reported psychological scales, including eating disorder examination questionnaire 6.0. One hundred sixty-four cortical, subcortical, cerebellar, and network parcellation regions were considered as ROIs. We calculated the ROI-to-ROI rsFCs and performed group comparisons. Results Compared to HC, AN patients showed 12 stronger rsFCs mainly in regions containing dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), and 33 weaker rsFCs primarily in regions containing cerebellum, within temporal lobe, between posterior fusiform cortex and lateral part of visual network, and between anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and thalamus (p < 0.01, false discovery rate [FDR] correction). Comparisons between AN subtypes showed that there were stronger rsFCs between right lingual gyrus and right supracalcarine cortex and between left temporal occipital fusiform cortex and medial part of visual network in the restricting type compared to the binge/purging type (p < 0.01, FDR correction). Conclusion Stronger rsFCs in regions containing mainly DLPFC, and weaker rsFCs in regions containing primarily cerebellum, within temporal lobe, between posterior fusiform cortex and lateral part of visual network, and between ACC and thalamus, may represent categorical diagnostic markers discriminating AN patients from HC.

    Introduction Body-image disturbance is a major factor in the development of eating disorders, especially among young women. There are two main components: perceptual disturbance, characterized by a discrepancy between perceived and actual body size, and affective disturbance, characterized by a discrepancy between perceived and ideal body size. Interventions targeting body-image disturbance ask individuals to describe their own body without using negative expressions when either viewing it in a mirror or imagining it. Despite the importance of reducing body-image disturbance, its neural mechanisms remain unclear. Here we investigated the changes in neural responses before and after an intervention. We hypothesized that neural responses correlated with the degree of body-image disturbance would also be related to its reduction, i.e., a reduction in perceptual and affective disturbances would be related to changes in attentional and socio-cognitive processing, respectively. Methods Twenty-eight young adult women without known psychiatric disorders underwent a single 40-min intervention. Participants completed tasks before and after the intervention, in which they estimated their perceived and ideal body sizes using distorted silhouette images to measure body-image disturbance. We analyzed the behavioral and neural responses of participants during the tasks. Results The intervention did not significantly reduce body-image disturbance. Analysis of individual differences showed distinct changes in neural responses for each type of disturbance. A decrease in perceptual disturbance was associated with bodily visuospatial processing: increased activation in the left superior parietal lobule, bilateral occipital gyri, and right cuneus. Reduced affective disturbance was associated with socio-cognitive processing; decreased activation in the right temporoparietal junction, and increased functional connectivity between the left extrastriate body area and the right precuneus. Discussion We identified distinct neural mechanisms (bodily visuospatial and socio-cognitive processing) associated with the reduction in each component of body-image disturbance. Our results imply that different neural mechanisms are related to reduced perceptual disturbance and the expression thereof, whereas similar neural mechanisms are related to the reduction and expression of affective disturbance. Considering the small sample size of this study, our results should be regarded as preliminary.

    Videos are commonly used in disaster prevention education or communication. Some consider behavioral recommendations to have more motivating content than hazard mechanisms; these, however, have not been empirically tested. Perception of hazard risk is mediated by risk-sensitive and risk-scrutiny attitudes, but which attitude the videos influence has not been examined. In Experiment 1, we created sets of videos for two types of content and relevant control videos, and their effects on four motivation measures of the self-oriented model (i.e., self-relevance, attention, self-efficacy, and behavioral intention) were examined in the online survey. In Experiment 2, we compared the intervention effects of disaster prevention and control videos on the pre-post change of two types of attitudes using a scenario-based tsunami evacuation decision-making task. Consequently, disaster-prevention videos (vs. control videos) facilitated the four motivation measures irrespective of the content type and increased the risk-sensitive attitude during the evacuation decision-making from the tsunami. The revealed facilitatory effect of the videos on motivational and risk-sensitive aspects of evacuation response appears to be congruent with previously advocated advantages of videos or films. The current finding offers insights into the process and mechanism of the effect of disaster prevention videos, providing a robust empirical basis for promoting their use in disaster prevention education.

  6. A Risk-Scrutinizing Attitude is Independent of Risk-Sensitive Attitude and May Hamper a Proper Protective Response: A Tsunami Simulation Experiment Peer-reviewed

    In decision making related to protective action against hazard risk, scrutinization of hazard-related information seems favorable for accurate risk evaluation. It is, however, unknown how such a risk-scrutiny attitude is related to sensitivity in risk perception or the difference in the types of information (e.g., sensory vs. numerical). Furthermore, how these attitudes are related to evacuation-prone individual factors, which may inform the psychological mechanisms of these attitudes, remains unknown. To address these questions, we conducted an online experiment (n = 1,200) using evacuation decision-making task with 40 earthquake scenarios where tsunami risks were manipulated using sensory or numerical information. Factor analysis identified risk-sensitive attitude, risk-scrutiny attitude, and sensitivity to sensory (vs. numerical) information. Risk-sensitive attitude was positively related to a evacuation-prone trait, that is emotion regulation, while risk-scrutiny attitude was negatively related to another evacuation-prone trait, leadership. The results demonstrated the independence of risk-scrutiny attitude from risk-sensitive attitude, as well as their independence from information types. Importantly, our results supported the notion that the suppression of optimistic bias is critical for risk-sensitive attitude and that the motivation to resolve the cognitive dissonance may underlie the risk-scrutiny attitude and delayed protective response. The current results have implications for psychological theories of protective decision making and development of disaster communication and education systems for tsunami and potentially other types of disasters.

    Abstract Although brain morphological abnormalities have been reported in anorexia nervosa (AN), the reliability and reproducibility of previous studies were limited due to insufficient sample sizes, which prevented exploratory analysis of the whole brain as opposed to regions of interest (ROIs). Objective was to identify brain morphological abnormalities in AN and the association with severity of AN by brain structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in a multicenter study, and to conduct exploratory analysis of the whole brain. Here, we conducted a cross-sectional multicenter study using T1-weighted imaging (T1WI) data collected between May 2014 and February 2019 in Japan. We analyzed MRI data from 103 female AN patients (58 anorexia nervosa restricting type [ANR] and 45 anorexia nervosa binge-purging type [ANBP]) and 102 age-matched female healthy controls (HC). MRI data from five centers were preprocessed using the latest harmonization method to correct for intercenter differences. Gray matter volume (GMV) was calculated from T1WI data of all participants. Of the 205 participants, we obtained severity of eating disorder symptom scores from 179 participants, including 87 in the AN group (51 ANR, 36 ANBP) and 92 HC using the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE-Q) 6.0. GMV reduction were observed in the AN brain, including the bilateral cerebellum, middle and posterior cingulate gyrus, supplementary motor cortex, precentral gyrus medial segment, and thalamus. In addition, the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), rostral anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), and posterior insula volumes showed positive correlations with severity of symptoms. This multicenter study was conducted with a large sample size to identify brain morphological abnormalities in AN. The findings provide a better understanding of the pathogenesis of AN and have potential for the development of brain imaging biomarkers of AN.

    The COVID-19 pandemic required people to adapt rapidly to the digital transformation of society for social survival, which highlighted the divide between those who can and cannot digitalize. Previous studies investigated factors promoting adaptation to digitalization; however, outcomes from adaptation to a digitalized society have not been sorted into a parsimonious model, even though there should be several multifaceted outcomes (e.g., usefulness, economic profit, and social outcome), each of which is promoted by different factors. If the effects of individual background factors can be revealed, including the technical-environment and survival-relevant personality in relation to each outcome, it would help in the creation of a society where more people play an active role by adapting to digitalization. This study aimed to construct such a model by identifying major outcomes gained in a digitalized society and investigating individual factors that contribute to the degree of gain of each of these outcomes. Five dimensions were identified by online surveys and factor analysis: Socialization (outcomes derived from new social connections created online), Space–time (freedom from time and space constraints), Economics (monetary outcome by using digital services), and Information (ease and amount of acquisition of information) were the positive outcomes, whereas Loneliness (feelings of not being able to keep up with digitization) was identified as a negative outcome. We determined that technical-environmental factors (e.g., familiarity with digital techniques and the amount of money that can be used for digitalization) facilitated gain in four positive outcomes. Notably, leadership and conscientiousness facilitated the Socialization gain while etiquette suppressed it. These factors’ effects would reflect the importance of a personality trait prioritizing construction and maintenance of social relationships. This study implies that material outcomes (i.e., Space–time, Economics, and Information) are promoted by technical-environmental support, whereas social outcomes may additionally require motivation and a positive attitude for purposeful social engagement.

    Coronavirus disease 2019 dramatically changed people’s behavior because of the need to adhere to infection prevention and to overcome general adversity resulting from the implementation of infection prevention measures. However, coping behavior has not been fully distinguished from risk perception, and a comprehensive picture of demographic, risk-perception, and psychobehavioral factors that influence the major coping-behavior factors remain to be elucidated. In this study, we recruited 2,885 Japanese participants. Major coping-behavior and risk-perception factors were identified via exploratory factor analysis of 50 candidate items. Then, we conducted a hierarchical multiple regression analysis to investigate factors associated with each coping-behavior factor. We identified four types of coping behavior [CB1 (mask-wearing), CB2 (information-seeking), CB3 (resistance to social stagnation), and CB4 (infection-prevention)] and three risk-perception factors [RP1 (shortages of daily necessities), RP2 (medical concerns), and RP3 (socioeconomic concerns)]. CB1 was positively associated with female sex and etiquette. CB2 was positively related to RP1 and RP3. CB3 was positively related to RP1 and leadership, and negatively associated with etiquette. CB4 was positively associated with female sex, etiquette, and active well-being. This parsimonious model may help to elucidate essential social dynamics and provide a theoretical framework for coping behavior during a pandemic.

    Introduction Coping with mortality threat, a psychological threat unique to humans and distinct from general emotional distress, is traditionally characterized by immediate suppression and prolonged worldview defense within the framework of the influential terror management theory (TMT). Views regarding the personality-trait concepts for this coping capacity diverge: some favor a broad definition based on general psychological attitudes (e.g., hardiness), while others prefer a narrow definition linked to interpersonal attitudes related to social coalition (e.g., attachment style and self-transcendence). Methods Using functional MRI, we presented healthy older participants with death-related words and explored correlations between the neural responses to mortality threat and the factor scores of the Power to Live questionnaire, which measures eight resilience-related psychobehavioral traits. Results We observed a significant association between the factor score and a neural response only for leadership; individuals with a high leadership score exhibited reduced neural response to mortality salience in the right inferior parietal lobule. Discussion Within the TMT framework, our findings align with the concept of the immediate suppression of death-thought accessibility associated with a secure attachment style, a trait conceptually linked to leadership. These findings highlight the unique role for the narrowly defined social-coalitional trait during the immediate stage of the coping process with mortality salience, in contrast to the broadly defined resilience-related personality traits associated with a prolonged worldview defense process. The deterioration of this coping process could constitute a distinct aspect of psychopathology, separate from dysfunction in general emotion regulation.

    Despite the diversity of human behavioral and psychological responses to environmental thermal stress, the major dimensions of these responses have not been formulated. Accordingly, the relevance of these responses to a framework of coping with stress (i.e., emotion- and problem-focused) and the neural correlates are unexplored. In this study, we first developed a multidimensional inventory for such responses using social surveys and a factor analysis, and then examined the neural correlates of each dimension using a functional magnetic resonance imaging; we manipulated the ambient temperature between uncomfortably hot and cold, and the correlations between the inventory factor scores and discomfort-related neural responses were examined. We identified three factors to construct the inventory: motivational decline, proactive response, and an active behavior, which appeared to reflect inefficient emotion-focused coping, efficient problem-focused coping, and positive appreciation of extreme environmental temperatures, respectively, under environmental thermal stress. Motivational decline score was positively associated with common neural response to thermal stress in the frontal and temporoparietal regions, implicated in emotion regulation, while proactive response score negatively with the neural responses related to subjective discomfort in the medial and lateral parietal cortices, implicated in problem-solving. We thus demonstrated that two of three major dimensions of individual variation in response to and coping with environmental thermal stress conform to an influential two-dimensional framework of stress coping. The current three-dimensional model may expand the frontiers of meteorological human science in both basic and application domains.

    As a countermeasure against M8–9 class Nankai Trough earthquakes, the Japan Meteorological Agency started a service to release “Nankai Trough Earthquake Extra Information (Megathrust Earthquake Alert).” This alert is released after an M8.0 or higher earthquake occurs and the possibility of a subsequent earthquake is evaluated to be higher than usual. This is an innovative attempt at disaster mitigation in Japan as it encourages residents in the predefined area to pre-evacuate for one week when tsunami risk is higher. However, the factors influencing the evacuation behavior of residents are unknown. In this study, we investigated factors contributing to residents’ pre-event evacuation intentions using the hierarchical multiple regression analysis. We focused on the extent to which the recognition of the hazards and risks of the Nankai Trough earthquake and the response to the Extra Information, which are changeable by the local governments’ public relations activities, contributed to pre-event evacuation intentions after controlling for disaster-related general attitude and sociodemographic factors. Further, we paid special attention to residents’ degree of recognition of this information by checking the accuracy of their understanding of whether they lived within the pre-event evacuation area. The results showed that the recognition factors were relevant but less so than the general attitude toward disaster and more so than the sociodemographic factors. In addition, residents’ recognition accuracy was low. Our results suggest that it is important for local governments to make adequate efforts to encourage residents to evacuate.

    Recent psychological and neuroimaging studies on altruism–egoism dilemmas have promoted our understanding of the processes underlying altruistic motivation; however, little attention has been paid to the egoistic counter-dynamics that prompt hesitancy to help. These counter-dynamics may involve the construction of reasons not to help based on contextual elaboration and explain individual differences in the tendency to help others in daily life. In this functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study, we explored the neural correlates of altruism–egoism dilemmas during empathy-driven helping decisions, with particular attention to the counter-dynamics related to individual helping tendency traits. We used two context-rich helping decision scenarios. In the empathy dilemma (Emp) scenario, empathy-driven motivation to help a poor person was associated with a cost, whereas in the economic-dilemma (Eco) scenario, self-beneficial motivation to help a non-poor person was associated with a cost. Our results showed activation of the right anterior prefrontal cortices, supramarginal gyrus, and posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) for the altruism–egoism dilemma (i.e., Emp > Eco). A significant negative effect of the helping tendency trait score was observed on PCC activation; interestingly, this effect was observed for both Emp and Eco dilemmas. The identified neural correlates of altruism–egoism dilemmas appear to be related to the construction of decision reasons based on contextual elaboration in naturalistic situations. In contrast to the classical view, our results suggest a two-stage model that includes an altruistic helping decision followed by counter-dynamics to determine the individual helping tendency.

    Although some researchers consider automatic adaptive emotion regulation to be an automatized strategy whereas others consider it to be implicit disengagement of deliberative process, to date, its neural correlates have been poorly investigated. In addition, the valence specificity of automatic adaptive emotion regulation and levels of activation relative to the neutral condition are controversial; the former is relevant to the attribution of resilient emotion regulation to positivity bias or emotional stability, and the latter to determining whether regulation is based on emotion-specific or emotion-non-specific processes. In this functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) study, we presented positive and negative emotional pictures to healthy young participants and investigated the neural correlates of automatic adaptive emotion regulation in spontaneous emotional response. A significant negative trait effect (i.e., regression coefficient) on activation was identified both for positive and negative emotional responses in various cortical regions. A cluster analysis identified three clusters among these regions based on the valence specificity of the trait effect and level of activation relative to neutral stimuli. Cluster 1 included regions in the sensorimotor cortex characterized by negative emotion-specific decreases in activation relative to neutral stimuli in adaptive individuals. Cluster 2 included several cortical regions including the bilateral dorsal executive network, anterior cingulate, and inferior frontal gyrus, which were characterized by valence-independent decreases in activation in adaptive individuals. Cluster 3 included the bilateral ventrolateral and dorsomedial prefrontal cortices, right insula, and other posterior regions, which were characterized by increased activation for negative stimuli in non-adaptive individuals. These findings support the assumption that automatic adaptive emotion regulation involves the implicit disengagement of deliberative process and suggest the relevance of different cortical networks to the potential emotion- and valence-specificity of adaptive regulation.

    Sincere praise reliably conveys positive or negative feedback, while flattery always conveys positive but unreliable feedback. These two praise types have not been compared in terms of communication effectiveness and individual preferences using neuroimaging. Through functional magnetic resonance imaging, we measured brain activity when healthy young participants received sincere praise or flattery after performing a visual search task. Higher activation was observed in the right nucleus accumbens during sincere praise than during flattery, and praise reliability correlated with posterior cingulate cortex activity, implying a rewarding effect of sincere praise. In line with this, sincere praise uniquely activated several cortical areas potentially involved in concern regarding others’ evaluations. A high praise-seeking tendency was associated with lower activation of the inferior parietal sulcus during sincere praise compared to flattery after poor task performance, potentially reflecting suppression of negative feedback to maintain self-esteem. In summary, the neural dynamics of the rewarding and socio-emotional effects of praise differed.

    Animacy perception—discriminating between animate and inanimate visual stimuli—is the basis for engaging in social cognition and for our survival (e.g., avoiding potential danger). Previous studies indicate that factors in a target, such as the features or motion of a target, enhance animacy perception. However, factors in a perceiver, such as the visual attention of a perceiver to a target, have received little attention from researchers. Research on judgment, decision-making, and neuroeconomics indicates the active role of visual attention in constructing decisions. This study examined the role of visual attention in the perception of animacy by manipulating the exposure time of targets. Among Studies 1a to 1c conducted in this study, participants saw two face illustrations alternately; one of the faces was shown to be longer than the other. The participants chose the face that they considered more animated and rounder. Consequently, longer exposure time toward targets facilitated animacy perception and preference rather than the perception of roundness. Furthermore, preregistered Study 2 examined the underlying mechanisms. The results suggest that mere exposure, rather than orienting behavior, might play a vital role in the perception of animacy. Thus, in the reverse relationship between visual attention and animacy perception, animate objects capture attention—attention results in the perception of animacy.

    Background Studies on the survivors of the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake and tsunami have revealed eight factors, called power to live, which are closely related to resilience and effective coping after intense and prolonged stress. However, whether the eight factors, which were examined in adults, are applicable to children is unclear. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the eight-factor structure of power to live was present since late childhood. Method A 34-item power to live questionnaire was filled by middle- to upper-grade elementary (n = 378) and junior high school students (n = 456). Moreover, because elementary school students may lack introspective ability, their power to live was evaluated through a parental assessment (n = 358). Additionally, we examined the relationship between each power to live factor and questions regarding disaster prevention awareness among 25 elementary school students. Results The results from confirmatory factor analysis for factor structure revealed generally acceptable fit indices. The reports from elementary school students and their parents significantly positively correlated with each power to live factor. Although reliability indices for factors such as stubbornness, etiquette, self-transcendence, and active well-being were not good for elementary school students, the reliability indices for all factors, excluding stubbornness, increased in junior high school students. Moreover, we identified a correlation between problem-solving, altruism, and emotional regulation and questionnaire items regarding awareness of disaster prevention in elementary school students. Conclusion Our results suggest that although factors common to adults, such as leadership, problem-solving, altruism, and emotional regulation, were identified at the elementary school stage, some factors, such as stubbornness, are in the process of being formed. Future studies should examine the developmental changes assumed to underlie these factors and their relationship to experience and neurodevelopmental basis.

    The detection of object movement that is contingent on one's own actions (i.e., movements with action contingency) influences social perception of the object; such interactive objects tend to create a good impression. However, it remains unclear whether neural representation of action contingency is associated with subsequent socio-cognitive evaluation of "contacting agents", or whether the appearance of agents (e.g., face- or non-face-like avatars) is essential for this effect. In this study, we conducted a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) task with two phases: contact (contact with face- or non-face-like avatars moving contingently or non-contingently) and recognition (rating a static image of each avatar). Deactivation of the frontoparietal self-agency network and activation of the reward network were the main effects of action contingency during the contact phase, consistent with previous findings. During the recognition phase, static avatars that had previously moved in a contingent manner deactivated the frontal component of the frontoparietal network (bilateral insula and inferior-middle frontal gyri), regardless of person-like appearance. Our results imply that frontal deactivation may underlie the effect of action contingency on subsequent social perception, independent of person-like appearance.

    Abstract In this study, neural representation of adult second language (L2) speakers’ implicit grammatical knowledge was investigated. Advanced L2 speakers of Japanese living in Japan, as well as L1 Japanese speakers, performed a word-monitoring task (proposed as an implicit knowledge test) in the MRI scanner. Behavioral measures were obtained from aptitude tests for explicit (language analytic ability) and implicit (statistical learning ability) learning. Findings indicate that, although both L1 and L2 speakers recruited neural circuits associated with procedural memory during the word-monitoring task, different brain regions were activated: premotor cortex (L1 speakers) and left caudate (L2 speakers). The premotor cortex activation was weaker in L2 than L1 speakers but was positively correlated with the left caudate activation, suggesting that their grammatical knowledge, while less automatized, was still developing. Behavioral sensitivity to errors was predicted only by explicit language aptitude, which may play a key role in the automatization of grammatical knowledge.

    Distracted attention is considered responsible for most car accidents, and many functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) researchers have addressed its neural correlates using a car-driving simulator. Previous studies, however, have not directly addressed safe driving performance and did not place pedestrians in the simulator environment. In this fMRI study, we simulated a pedestrian-rich environment to explore the neural correlates of three types of safe driving performance: accurate lane-keeping during driving (driving accuracy), the braking response to a preceding car, and the braking response to a crossing pedestrian. Activation of the bilateral frontoparietal control network predicted high driving accuracy. On the other hand, activation of the left posterior and right anterior superior temporal sulci preceding a sudden pedestrian crossing predicted a slow braking response. The results suggest the involvement of different cognitive processes in different components of driving safety: the facilitatory effect of maintained attention on driving accuracy and the distracting effect of social-cognitive processes on the braking response to pedestrians.

    Body-image disturbance comprises two components. The first is perceptual in nature, and is measured by a discrepancy between one's actual body and perceived self-image ("perceived-actual discrepancy"). The other component is affective, and is measured by a discrepancy between one's perceived self-image and ideal body image ("perceived-ideal discrepancy"). The present study evaluated the relationships between body-image disturbance and characteristics of eating disorders such as symptoms and related personality traits. In a psychophysiological experiment, female university students (mean ± SD age = 21.0 ± 1.38 years) were presented with silhouette images of their own bodies that were distorted in terms of width. The participants were asked whether each silhouette image was more overweight than their actual or ideal body images. Eating-disorder characteristics were assessed using six factors from the Japanese version of the Eating Disorder Inventory 2 (EDI2). We found that perceived-actual discrepancies correlated with negative self-evaluation (i.e., factor 3 of the EDI2), whereas perceived-ideal discrepancies correlated with dissatisfaction with one's own body (i.e., factor 2 of EDI2). These results imply that distinct psychological mechanisms underlie the two components of body-image disturbance.

    Self-aid and mutual assistance among victims are critical for resolving difficulties in the immediate aftermath of a disaster, but individual facilitative factors for such resolution processes are poorly understood. To identify such individual factors in the background (i.e., disaster damage and demographic) and personality domains considering different types of difficulty and resolution, we analyzed survey data collected in the 3-year aftermath of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami. We first identified major types of difficulty using a cluster analysis of 18 difficulty domains and then explored individual factors that facilitated six types of resolution (self-help, request for help, help from family, help from an acquaintance, help through cooperation, and public assistance) of these difficulty types. We identified general life difficulties and medico-psychological difficulties as two broad types of difficulty; disaster damage contributed to both types, while some personality factors (e.g., neuroticism) exacerbated the latter. Disaster damage hampered self-resolution and forced a reliance on resolution through cooperation or public assistance. On the other hand, some demographic factors, such as being young and living in a three-generation household, facilitated resolution thorough the family. Several personality factors facilitated different types of resolution, primarily of general life difficulties; the problem-solving factor facilitated self-resolution, altruism, or stubbornness resolutions through requests, leadership resolution through acquaintance, and emotion-regulation resolution through public assistance. Our findings are the first to demonstrate the involvement of different individual, particularly personality, factors in survival in the complex social dynamics of this disaster stage. They may contribute to disaster risk mitigation, allowing sophisticated risk evaluation and community resilience building.

    Clarification of the individual factors determining the speed and quality of life recovery after massive disasters is crucial in assessing the vulnerability and resilience of individuals and communities. The research, however, remains in its infancy in that the index of life recovery per se is yet to be established; researchers have utilized different sets of variables, and their importance seems to vary across recovery phases potentially reflecting the change in housing situation. In addition, previous research on promoting factors of life recovery has primarily focused on demographic factors and inadequately addressed the psychological and behavioral factors, which has large educational and cultural implications. In this study, to address these two issues, we analyzed the survey data of the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami disaster. First, from the multiple questionnaire items relevant to the situations of life recovery, we extracted the major elements by factor analysis and investigated their relationship to subjective sense of life recovery. At this time, we compared the relationships obtained between victims who lost their housing and those who did not. Then, we examined the psycho-behavioral as well as demographic factors promoting these life-recovery elements. The factor analysis provides two recovery elements: Well-being (health and social connections) and Housing Recovery (integrity of residential environment). The main determinant of subjective sense of life recovery was the housing recovery element for victims who had lost their houses, while it was the well-being element for those who did not experience housing loss. Among the demographic factors, a robust effect of income on the housing recovery element was identified in both victim groups while the effect of age and household structures on the two elements varied between groups. We clarified that different psycho-behavioral factors promoted two life-recovery elements. Across groups, contribution of leadership to the housing recovery element and that of neuroticism (negative), emotional regulation, and active well-being to the well-being element were identified. The former finding is consistent with the importance of consensus building in housing reconstruction, and the latter may reflect the role of common psycho-behavioral capacity oriented to individuals’ well-being including social aspects. The two life-recovery elements and their promoting factors thus identified may provide a parsimonious macroscopic framework for the evaluation and promotion of life recovery from disasters, and have practical utility for an educational approach to strengthening community resilience.

    Many food decisions are made rapidly and without reflective processing. The ability to determine nutritional information accurately is a precursor of food decisions and is important for a healthy diet and weight management. However, little is known about the cognitive evaluation of food attributes based on visual information in relation to assessing nutritional content. We investigated the accuracy of visual encoding of nutritional information after brief and extended time exposures to food images. The following questions were addressed: (1) how accurately do people estimate energy and macronutrients after brief exposure to food images, and (2) how does estimation accuracy change with time exposure and the type of nutritional information? Participants were first asked to rate the energy density (calories) and macronutrient content (carbohydrates/fat/protein) of different sets of food images under three time conditions (97, 500 or 1000 ms) and then asked to perform the task with no time constraints. We calculated estimation accuracy by computing the correlations between estimated and actual nutritional information for each time exposure and compared estimation accuracy with respect to the type of nutritional information and the exposure time. The estimated and actual energy densities and individual macronutrient content were significantly correlated, even after a brief exposure time (97 ms). The degree of accuracy of the estimations did not differ with additional time exposure, suggesting that <100 ms was sufficient to predict the energy and macronutrients from food images. Additionally, carbohydrate estimates were less accurate than the estimates of other nutritional variables (proteins, fat and calories), regardless of the exposure time. These results revealed rapid and accurate assessment of food attributes based on visual information and the accuracy of visual encoding of nutritional information after brief and extended time exposure to food imagery.

    This study aims to examine the neural mechanisms of resolving response competition during bilingual word recognition in the context of language intermixing. During fMRI scanning, Chinese–Japanese unbalanced bilinguals were required to perform a second-language (L2) lexical decision task composed of cognates, interlingual homographs, matched control words from both Chinese (first language) and Japanese (L2), and pseudowords. Cognate word processing showed longer reaction times and greater activation in the supplementary motor area (SMA) than L2 control word processing. In light of the orthographic and semantic overlap of cognates, these results reflect the cognitive processing involved in resolving response conflicts enhanced by the language membership of non-target language during bilingual word recognition. A significant effect of L2 proficiency was also observed only in the SMA, which is associated with the task decision system. This finding supports the bottom-up process in the BIA+ model and the Multilink model. The task/decision system receives the information from the word identification system, making appropriate responses during bilingual word recognition.

    <title>Abstract</title> Career choices affect not only our financial status but also our future well-being. When making these choices, individuals evaluate their willingness to obtain a job (i.e., job values), primarily driven by simulation of future pay and interest. Despite the importance of these decisions, their underlying neural mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we examined the neural representation of pay and interest. Forty students were presented with 80 job names and asked to evaluate their job values while undergoing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Following fMRI, participants rated the jobs in terms of pay and interest. The fMRI data revealed that the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) was associated with job value representation, and the ventral and dorsal regions of the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) were associated with pay and interest representations, respectively. These findings suggest that the neural computations underlying job valuation conform to a multi-attribute decision-making framework, with overall value signals represented in the vmPFC and the attribute values (i.e., pay and interest) represented in specific regions outside the vmPFC, in the PCC. Furthermore, anatomically distinct representations of pay and interest in the PCC may reflect the differing roles of the two subregions in future simulations.

    <p>Nostalgia, a sentimental longing for the past, has attracted attention in the fields of psychology and marketing in recent years. Although these studies have identified what nostalgia is, including its triggers and functions, the question of how nostalgia is induced remains unanswered. In this article, we review existing psychological models and recent neuroimaging studies that have investigated the neural correlates of nostalgia and propose a provisional framework of nostalgia induction. The multilevel memory‒reward coactivation framework expects that different types of autobiographical memory (AM), such as episodic AM and semantic AM, activate the associated mesolimbic reward system. This framework also assumes a working self, a complex set of active goals and associated self-images, which enables us to explain individual differences in nostalgia experience by influencing what is remembered and how the retrieved information is evaluated. This framework is advantageous in that it can integrate existing psychological models into one model and can explain individual differences in nostalgia that are important for the use of nostalgia, especially in clinical situations.</p>

    <title>Abstract</title> Facing one’s own death and managing the fear of death are important existential issues, particularly in older populations. Although recent functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies have investigated brain responses to death-related stimuli, none has examined whether this brain activation was specific to one’s own death or how it was related to dispositional fear of death. In this study, during fMRI, 34 elderly participants (aged, 60–72 years) were presented with either death-related or death-unrelated negative words and asked to evaluate the relevance of these words to the “self” or the “other.” The results showed that only the left supplementary motor area (SMA) was selectively activated during self-relevant judgments of death-related words. Regression analyses of the effect of fear of death on brain activation during death-related thoughts identified a significant negative linear correlation in the right supramarginal gyrus (SMG) and an inverted-U-shaped correlation in the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) only during self-relevant judgments. Our results suggest potential involvement of the SMA in the existential aspect of thoughts of death. The distinct fear-of-death-dependent responses in the SMG and PCC may reflect fear-associated distancing of the physical self and the processing of death-related thoughts as a self-relevant future agenda, respectively.

    Humans learn languages in real-life situations by integrating multiple signals, including linguistic forms, their meanings, and the actions and intentions of speakers. However, little is known about the neural bases underlying the social learning of a second language (L2) in adults. In this study, 36 adults were asked to learn two sets of L2 spoken words through translation versus simulated social interactive videos (social learning). Brain activation during word learning was measured using fMRI. Greater activation was observed in the bilateral superior temporal sulcus, posterior middle temporal gyri, and right inferior parietal lobule during social learning as compared with translation learning. Furthermore, higher activity in the right temporal parietal junction, right hippocampus, and motor areas was observed during the initial stage of social learning, with the more successful performance being at the time of overnight testing. We argue that social learning may strengthen the link from new L2 forms to rich L2 semantic representations wherein memory properties are embodied, multimodal, and richly contextualized.

    <title>Abstract</title> Eating disorder tendencies are psychological characteristics that are prevalent in healthy young females and are known to be among the risk factors for eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia nervosa. People with greater eating disorder tendencies strongly associate sweet and fatty foods with weight gain and strictly avoid consuming such foods. However, little is known about how eating disorder tendencies influence the association between taste and body shape impression. Research on crossmodal correspondences suggests that people preferentially associate sweet tastes with round shapes, and individual differences affect the degree of such associations. This study investigates how the degree of taste–shape matching is related to eating disorder tendencies with a preliminary investigation of what mediates this relationship. Two experiments were conducted: in Experiment 1, healthy participants rated the degree of association between basic taste words (sweet/sour/salty/bitter) and roundness of shape and subsequently completed questionnaires addressing eating disorder tendencies. In Experiment 2, participants answered additional questionnaires addressing obsessiveness, dichotomous thinking, and self-esteem. The results of Experiment 1 indicated a positive correlation between drive for thinness, which is one indicator of an eating disorder tendency, and the degree of matching sweetness to round shape. Experiment 2 replicated the results of Experiment 1 and revealed the mediating effect of obsessiveness. These findings suggest a relationship between individual differences in taste–shape matching and eating disorder tendency and the preliminary mediating role of obsessiveness. The present study provides new insight into the role of sweet–round matching in eating disorder tendencies and the associated psychological mechanisms.

    Temperature is an important characteristic of food and drink. In addition to food-intrinsic temperature (i.e., serving temperature), consumers often experience food-extrinsic temperature (e.g., physical warmth). Emerging research on cross-modal correspondence has revealed that people reliably associate temperature with other sensory features. Building on the literature on cross-modal correspondence and sensation transference theory, the present study aimed to reveal mental representations of temperature-taste correspondence and cross-modal mental representations influencing corresponding sensory/hedonic perceptions of beverages, with a focus on manipulating food-extrinsic warmth. To reveal mental representations of temperature-taste correspondence, Experiment 1 investigated whether temperature words (warm, cool) are associated with sensory/hedonic attributes (e.g., sweet, sour, salty, bitter). The results of Experiment 1 demonstrated that warm (vs. cool) was matched more with saltiness, tastiness, healthfulness, and preference (intention to buy), whereas cool (vs. warm) was matched more with sourness and freshness. Experiment 2 assessed whether cross-modal mental representations influence corresponding sensory/hedonic perceptions of beverages. The participants wore hot and cold pads and rated sensory/hedonic attributes of Japanese tea (Experiment 2a) or black coffee (Experiment 2b) before and after tasting it. The results of Experiment 2a demonstrated that physical warmth (vs. coldness) increased healthfulness and the intention to buy Japanese tea. The results of Experiment 2b did not reveal any effects of physical warmth on sensory/hedonic ratings. These findings provide evidence of taste-temperature correspondence and provide preliminary support for the influence of food-extrinsic warmth on taste attributes related to positivity.

    Social connections are essential for human survival. Loneliness is a motivational factor for building and maintaining social connections. Automatic attention occurs with little cognitive effort and plays a key role in detecting biologically salient events, such as human faces. Although previous studies have investigated the effect of loneliness on social behavior, the effect of loneliness on automatic attention to human faces remains largely unknown. The present study investigated the effects of loneliness on automatic visual attention to warmth and competence facial information, which determines facial attraction. This study included 43 participants who rated warmth and competence facial information. Then, they engaged with the target-distractor paradigm in which they saw two house images at the top and bottom and indicated whether the images were identical. During the task, we presented two faces as distractors and measured visual attention toward the faces as automatic attention because participants did not have to attend to the faces. The results showed an interactive effect between subjective loneliness and facial information on automatic attention. Warm targets automatically captured the attention of people feeling relatively lonely, whereas competent targets automatically captured the attention of those who felt less lonely. These results suggest that loneliness adaptively influences automatic processing of social information.

    BACKGROUND: Empathic concern (EC) is an important interpersonal resilience factor that represents positive adaptation, such as "relating to others" (a factor of posttraumatic growth [PTG]) after disaster. However, controversy exists regarding whether the changes in EC (e.g., the intra-personal change between the acute phase and the disillusionment phase) positively or negatively affect mental health after a disaster. We hypothesized that increased EC may increase chronic fatigue due to over-adjustment (hypothesis 1). We also hypothesized that increasing the changes in "relating to others" could decrease the changes in chronic fatigue (hypothesis 2). METHODS: Forty-nine young, healthy volunteers (M/F: 36/13; age at 3 months after the disaster [3 months]: mean ± SD: 21.1 ± 1.7 years) underwent assessments of EC using the Japanese version of the Interpersonal Reactivity Index, chronic fatigue using the Japanese version of the Checklist Individual Strength (CIS-J) questionnaire, and "relating to others" using the Japanese version of the PTG inventory during the acute phase (3 months) and the disillusionment phase (1 year after the disaster). Pearson product moment correlations at 3 months and 1 year were determined for all scores related to EC. The changes (delta = degree of change from 3 months to 1 year) or scores at 1 year were entered into linear structural equation systems to test the hypotheses. RESULTS: The delta of EC positively affected the delta of the CIS-J, and the delta of relating to others negatively affected the delta of the CIS-J. Both the EC and relating to others scores were negatively associated with the CIS-J score at 1 year. These results were in accordance with hypothesis 1 and 2. CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated the opposite effects of 2 types of ECs, i.e., stability (inherent disposition) and flexibility (degree of change), on the degree of chronic fatigue. Increasing EC with increasing chronic fatigue, but not the change in relating to others, may be a red flag for individuals during the disillusionment phase.

    我々は、円滑な人間関係を確立・維持するために言語的配慮（ポライトネス）を行っている。ポライトネスには、他者に邪魔されたくないという欲求に配慮する方略（ネガティブポライトネス）と、他者に認められたいという欲求に配慮する方略（ポジティブポライトネス）の2方向の方略がある。本研究では、fMRIを用いて発話産出におけるポライトネスの神経基盤を検討した。実験参加者は、MRIの中で、日常場面で些細な失敗をした架空の友人に対して、 (1)ポジティブポライトネスを用いる、(2)ネガティブポライトネスを用いる条件、(3)ポライトネスを用いない、のいずれかの条件で発話の産出を行った。その結果、ネガティブポライトネス特異的な領域として左眼窩前頭皮質前部および右眼窩前頭皮質後部を、ネガティブポライトネス特異的な領域として右扁桃体を、両方のポライトネスに共通して関与する領域として右外側眼窩前頭皮質後部を同定した。

    Childhood is known to be the best time in life to acquire foreign speech sounds. Therefore, it is important for foreign language education to clarify the neural process relating to foreign speech sounds. Healthy right-handed children (aged 6-18 years) participated in this study. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we examined their brain activation during an overt repetition and perceptual task with native and non-native syllables. The results showed that brain activation in the left inferior frontal gyrus pars opercularis, which is thought to be involved in motor control for speech production, increased with age. Additionally, accuracy of the pronunciation of non-native syllables improved with age. Those results indicate that improvement in foreign speech pronunciation might reflect maturation of the left inferior frontal gyrus.

    &lt;p&gt;脳機能計測、特に機能的MRIをAI研究に応用する際に重要な実験デザイン上の考え方を２点提案する。まず１点は適切な統制条件の重要さである。ここでは人間の認知過程の奥深さと解析・解釈の見通しを十分に配慮する必要がある。もう１点は&quot;脳機能も計測してみる&quot;という「追加」的な発想を避けることである。脳機能計測を上手に使う研究コンセプトは３つある。脳機能計測の応用研究は脳機能計測のプロとの恊働が得策である。&lt;/p&gt;

    In this study, we investigated how people reply to irony and praise. Results showed that principal replies to praise are modestly, thank, agree, and smile. Principal replies to irony are apology, and biter smile. Principal replies to praise from misunderstanding are apology, and biter smile. We also investigated the relationships between the reply and listener&#039;s personality traits. Results suggested that we adjust the reply and the effects of personality traits differ depending on various contexts.

    One of human-being specific activities, interpreting (oral translation), has been adopted as a popular method to enhance second language acquisition lately. The question, however, how interpreting is executed in human brains, remains largely unknown. In this paper, we present our fMRI (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging) experimental results to investigate how cerebral cortices are activated when subjects are engaged in interpreting exercises. Twenty-one healthy, right-handed university student subjects participated in this study. We directly compared English to Japanese consecutive interpreting (EJ) to Japanese to English consecutive interpreting (JE) using subtraction method, as well as with sentence reconstruction tasks in Japanese (JJ) and English (EE), and with resting condition (Rest, or baseline). The direct subtraction analysis between EJ and JE left only a limited area: left superior temporal gyrus remained. In JE minus EJ (masked by EJ-Rest: P&lt;0.05image), right and left precentral gyri, left thalamus, left and right superior temporal gyri, and left middle temporal gyrus are left, suggesting that JE recruited more extensive regions in comparison with EJ, despite that all sources of sentence recorded and used as stimuli were constructed to be at the same level of difficulty, either directly taken from MEXT (Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) -authorized popular textbooks used in Japanese public junior high schools, or translation of such sources. The conditions EJ, EE, and JJ showed very similar patterns of cortical activation, indicating that the conditions recruited similar brain regions: left and right superior temporal gyri, mainly left middle temporal gyrus,, left inferior frontal gyrus (opercular part and triangular part), left temporal lobe&#039;s lateral surface, and mainly left supplementary motor areas. EJ and JE commonly activated Inferior frontal gyri (opercular part and triangular part) and supplementary motor areas in both hemispheres. Kawashima (2004) reports that even a different-activity-related cortical activation serves as a preparatory activity for the individuals&#039; following activity and enhances learning or delays development of dementia in older subjects. From the results, we infer that EE and JJ sentence reconstruction exercises that activated similar regions to those activated in consecutive interpreting might fit the purpose of consecutive interpreting training preparation.

    The purpose of this study was to identify the neural correlates of psychosocial maturity during understanding others from the viewpoint of self. In psychology, ego identity is one of the most famous theories for psychosocial maturity. Those who have established ego identity have a definite purpose for one&#039;s life and an ability of goal directed behavior. We assumed that such a psychosocial maturity is related to the ability to distinguish others from self when one understands the others. We used an fMRI technique to identify cortical regions where activity during understanding others&#039; decision-making is correlated with personality maturity. We measured subjects&#039; personality maturity using the Rasmussen&#039;s Ego Identity Scale. There were three conditions, S, F and G which were perspective taking conditions for inferring self, best friend and people in general&#039;s decision-making, respectively. Differential activation of both the contrasts F-S and G-S was significantly correlated with the ego identity scale in the left lateral prefrontal cortex (LPFC). The results indicate that the activity of the left LPFC is related to psychosocial maturity when understanding others from the viewpoint of self. We suggest that psychosocial maturity is related to the development of the executive function which is supported by the left LPFC. &lt;b&gt;[J Physiol Sci. 2008;58 Suppl:S30]&lt;/b&gt;

    Phylogenetical and ontogenetical evidence suggests that visual self-recognition requires cognitive mechanisms that are partially distinct from those for recognition of other person, but closely related to a higher social cognition ability, such as empathy. Recent functional imaging studies demonstrated a pattern of cortical activation observed specifically during the recognition of one&#039;s own face. A characteristic of the pattern includes an absence of activation in the temporoparietal regions, which is observed during other-face recognition, and has been implicated in social perception. Given that this pattern has been replicated in the self-name recognition, the lack of the involvement of the social perception network seems to be a domain-general characteristic of self-recognition. On the other hand, several cortical regions, predominantly in the right parietal and frontal cortices, exhibit activation specifically during the self-face but not self-name recognition. While these regions have been typically associated with the sensorimotor integration, results of a functional connectivity analysis on intersubject variability in activation suggested that the right parietal and frontal networks play distinct roles in self-face recognition. Taking these findings together, cortical activation specific to the self-face appears to reflect self-other distinction at multiple levels, at least including physical and social levels. &lt;b&gt;[J Physiol Sci. 2008;58 Suppl:S29]&lt;/b&gt;

    When we hear a sentence, we immediately process syntactic and semantic information, which are two distinct types of linguistic information. However, it remains unclear whether both types are processed in different brain networks or not. To clarify this, we investigated the brain regions involved in syntactic or semantic information using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). These data indicate that the bilateral inferior parietal lobule is more involved in syntactic processing than semantic processing, whereas the inferior frontal gyrus is more involved in semantic processing than syntactic processing. These findings suggest that both syntactic and semantic processing occur in the same network, the fronto parietal network, rather than being spatially dissociated.

    Regional cerebral blood flow was measured in six healthy volunteers by positron emission tomography during identification of speaker and emotion from spoken words. The speaker identification task activated several audio-visual multimodal areas, particularly the temporal poles in both hemispheres, which may be involved in connecting vocal attributes with the visual representations of speakers. The emotion identification task activated regions in the cerebellum and the frontal lobe, suggesting a functional relationship between those regions involved in emotion. The results suggest that different anatomical structures contribute to the vocal identification of speaker and emotion.

    <p>A person's personality plays an important role in maintaining a resilient life affer a disaster(i.e. power to live with disasters). Two studies were conducted to investigate the association of trait gratitude with the power to live with disasters. The first study asked participants to complete the Big Five Inventory, Trait Gratitude Scale, and a scale for an eight-factor model of the power to live. After controlling for gender and the Big Five, results revealed that gratitude accounted for variance in leadership, altruism, etiquette, emotional regulation, and self -transcendence.The second study addressed the causal effect by application of gratitude intervention. Although the effects of trait gratitude were replicated, the intervention did not change the power to live, thereby lending no support for the causal relation.</p>

    Our hypothesis that the dysfunctional mechanisms of mental states fall into several patterns of negative cycles of self-consciousness was generally supported. The "insufficiency-effect system" can be roughly classified into three schemata in the brain: physical (motor and sensory association regions), interpersonal relationship (TPJ, TP, dMPFC), and social value (vMPFC / vACC, PCC / Precunes). There is also some supportive finding on the possibility that different types of mental health intervention methods may be effective through different mechanisms corresponding to each pattern. Based on these results, a useful framework has been constructed for the strategic systematization of the relationship between mental dysfunction and the effects of mental health training methods and each brain mechanism.

    Self─disturbance is thought to be a highly specific disorder of schizophrenia and is also noted as an index for predicting later onset in psychosis risk state (ARMS). However, a method for objectively evaluating this has not been established yet. In this study, in order to evaluate Self─disturbance, we newly created a task applying the forward model of sensory result collation, and examined it in the patient group and healthy control group. Comparing the brain activity with the condition that the sensory result is different from the prediction and the condition that matches the prediction, the activation was performed in the upper temporal gyrus and Temporo-parietal junction in healthy volunteers, but activation was weak in patients. It is suggested that this result reflects the Self─disturbance and is expected as an indicator of future prognosis of psychosis risk status.

    Lecture is a co-creation process through communication between teachers and students. And in co-creation, “Ba” (embodied communication field) plays an important role. However, visualizing system of “Ba” has not been developed yet, and it depends on the experience and intuition of teachers in the class room. In this study, we constructed an artificial system to visualize “Ba” in group communication, and clarified the neuroscientific base of the empathic state in “Ba”. In addition, we have developed a co-creative lecture support system which can feed back information from the “Ba” to teachers in real time.

    Patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) exhibited an exaggerated sensorimotor function of the gastrointestinal tract in response to stress. However, the emotion-cognition sequence is largely unknown for IBS. We hypothesized that brain processing in individuals with IBS, during decision making, is different from that of healthy controls, due to increased activity of the insula and anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) as well as altered connectivity among brain regions. The results suggested that IBS subjects had significantly more advantageous card selections and gaining money.The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) in IBS subjects is likely to be activated during decision making under ambiguity. Moreover, dynamic causal modeling analysis during decision making revealed significantly different connectivity in subjects with IBS, compared with controls. These findings suggested that gut feeling is involved in decision making individuals with IBS.

    我々は複数の「自己」を持ち（例：研究者の私と家庭人としての私）それらの間の葛藤を経験する。さらにこれらの「個別的自己」を俯瞰的に眺める「総合的自己」も存在し、適応的に個別的自己間のバランスを調整する。思春期・青年期の“自己の確立”は、個別的自己の成熟を経て、その間の葛藤を調整する総合的自己の確立までの過程である。代表者は様々な自己に関する脳機能マッピング研究の成果に基づいて、行動出力とフィードバック入力の連合（「スキーマ」）が環境とのインタラクションの中で３階層に発達する、すなわち第１層の身体的自己（運動・感覚連合野）から第２層の対人関係的自己（dMPFC, TPJ他）を経て第３層の社会価値的自己（vMPFC, PCC）に至るモデルを提案していた。本研究では、自己確立の最終成熟段階である「総合的自己」の確立までの過程を複数のfMRI実験によってこのモデルに位置づけることを目指し、平成２７年度は(1)第１層から第２層への発達過程の解明、(2)第２層から第３層への発達過程の解明、そして(3)個別的・総合的自己の神経基盤解明を行った。その結果、個別的自己の成熟を経て総合的自己が確立する過程は自己３層モデルと整合的であることが示された。さらに、その構成要素であるSMA, dMPFC, vMPFCといった前頭葉内側領域や、TPJ, PCCといった後部連合皮質について、自己確立過程で果たす役割がより具体的に理解できた。

    Focusing on the concept of the cultural capital and the emergence of role consciousness of rural residents, we conducted a verification based on the perspective of the interconnections between the humanities, social sciences and the brain sciences (IHSB) to show that these issues are important for rural reconstruction. Therefore, while obtaining knowledge on their concept of nature and the role of traditional arts in the village, we have been investigated the value evaluation of fukei (scenary) under the framework of "fukei (scenary) narrative". In addition, two brain scientific experiments, fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) and NIRS (near-infrared spectroscopy), were carried out from the perspective of IHSB. As a result, the further development possibility of our research project (IHSB) organized by the agricultural economists has been suggested.

    There are various types of daily practices that are expected to have positive effect on the mental health. This study addressed the neural mechanisms of the positive psychological effect of such practices with particular interest on their association with the three-layer self-representation model. The breathing practice, which is expected to adjust the relationship between the body and mind, showed the effect on neural activation in the areas associated with the physical self-recognition. The photo-taking therapy, which is expected to adjust the relationship between the society and mind, demonstrated the effect on neural activation in the areas associated with the recognition of the relationship between the self and the society, as well as in those associated with the physical self-recognition. The findings suggest the validity of making reference to the three-layer self-representation model when approaching to the cognitive mechanism of the positive mental-health effects.

    飽きは繰り返される刺激や作業によって、行為・状況の意義を見出せなくなったときに感じる特有の負の感情である。この飽き感情への対処戦略として、我々は外的状況あるいは内的状況（自分の精神状態）を変える行動を取る。飽き対処、特に内的戦略は飽きの状況に関する知覚の再構築に重要であり、創造性との関係が推測される。本研究では２種類の飽き対処戦略の神経基盤と、これと創造性との関係を明らかにすることを目的に、平成２５年度に健常被験者４６名を対象とした機能的MRI実験を実施した。実験ではMRI中で写真や絵画などの視覚刺激を鑑賞する課題と、その刺激に対する飽き感情の程度を評価する課題を交互に繰り返させた。最高度の飽き評価によって新しい刺激を要求する選択をした場合を外的戦略とした。この後に５０％の確率でまた同じ刺激が提示される場合があり、その際に内的戦略が用いられるとした。今年度はこの実験データについて様々な角度から解析を行った。特に、条件間の脳活動差と、AUT（代替用途）テストで計測した各被験者の創造性得点との関係に着目した。両対処戦略に関する脳活動が腹内側前頭前皮質を始めとする皮質内側領域に見られた。また、内的戦略における後帯状皮質(PCC)及び右側角回(AG)の活動は被験者の創造性得点と正相関を示した。抽出されたPCCとAGの領域は、脳の進化過程で末期、すなわちヒトで急激に発達する数少ない領域に含まれる。この事実は、内的戦略がヒトの創造性に何らかの役割を果たす可能性を支持するものと考えられ。ネアンデルタール人とホモ・サピエンスの交替劇の真相理解に重要な参考知見となる。

    他者の視線移動の知覚処理には身体運動処理と社会情報処理のレベルが存在するが、その処理領域については解明されていない。自己顔視線手がかり課題は、自己顔による標的検出抑制と視線手がかりによる検出促進を指標に、身体運動レベルと社会情報レベルの視線移動処理過程研究を可能にする。本研究では機能的MRIを用いてこれらの処理神経基盤を同定し、領域間の情報の流れを解明するとともに、標的検出抑制をもたらす自己顔の認知的特徴・処理過程について、認知科学・臨床的な検討を行う事を目指した。その成果は顔認知の動的社会情報処理の知見に重要なアップデートをもたらすと期待された。 平成２３年度に、自己顔視線手がかり課題を機能的MRI実験に実装するための課題改良と装置の準備を行い、平成２４年度はこれを用いて脳活動計測実験を行った。その結果、本研究課題に関する今後の重要な技術的課題が明らかとなった。本研究計画では先行研究に従って視線処理の神経基盤を前頭前野内側、側頭極、上側頭溝後部皮質と想定し、これらの領域の脳活動が自己顔認知に受ける影響を精査する計画であった。しかし、実際にはこれらの領域の賦活は全く観測されなかった。この結果に基づいて、同様の課題を用いた先行研究を再び注意深くレビューすると、目立たないながら数多くの全く異なる結果やネガティヴ結果が報告されている事が明らかとなった。視線課題は社会情報処理の神経基盤を同定する基準的な課題と目されている状況に鑑み、この事実は重要な意味を持ち、今後の検討が重要である。 また、自己顔認知と社会情報処理の関連に関する全く新しい知見も得られた。自己顔認知時の右上頭頂小葉後部の活動が、他者との関係性に関する社会認識と負の相関を持つ事が明らかとなった。その解釈として、身体的自己認知と社会的認識に共通する抑制性の処理が推測されるが、その妥当性の検証は今後の課題である。

    自己の社会的価値評価は社会行動選択に重大な影響を及ぼす。本研究では、パートナー選択ゲーム遂行中の脳活動を測定し、自己の社会的価値評価の脳内表象とこれに基づいた行動選択の神経基盤を明らかにした。 平成23年度に実施した課題・刺激の選択・最適化の成果に基づいて、平成24年度には脳活動測定実験を行った。30名の健常男子大学生被験者を対象に、MRIスキャナー中でバーチャルなダンスパーティー状況、アルバイト応募状況を模したパートナー選択ゲームを遂行させた。各試行は、ライバルの提示と価値評価課題、また選択パートナーと提示と選択課題から構成した。「ライバルあり条件」では同じパートナー候補をライバルと奪い合う設定で、ライバルとして前者では同世代の男性の顔写真、後者では年齢・学部・所属サークルを提示した。パートナーとして前者では同世代の女性の顔写真一組、後者ではアルバイトの内容と時給を1組提示した。「コントロール条件」は選択課題で被験者が優先してパートナーを選択できる点以外はほぼ同等の条件とした。両状況において、ライバル提示時及びパートナー選択時に、ライバルあり条件でコントロール条件と比較して前頭前野内側と後部帯状回の賦活が見られた。ライバル提示時の活動から、これらの領域は自己の社会的価値評価表象と考えられ、これらの領域がパートナー選択時にも賦活することから、自己の社会的価値評価に依存した適応行動を反映している事が推測される。 本研究の成果は、自己の社会的価値評価に依存した適応行動を説明する人間モデルに、神経科学的根拠を提供する事が期待される。

    We investigated neural bases underlying common psychological characteristics among psychosomatic diseases, such as stress vulnerability and somatization, by using neuroimaging methods. The results suggested that neural correlates of stress vulnerability is related to dysfunction of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the ventral anterior cingulate cortex, and those of somatization is related to altered activation patterns in the anterior insula and the somatosensory area. The results support the effectiveness of psychological intervention to the patients with any types of psychosomatic diseases.

    自己顔認知の神経基盤を、脳活動測定と行動実験を用いて解明する全体計画である。平成22年度は自己顔認知で特異的に活動する右頭頂-前頭領域の役割について、次の2つの仮説を検討した。【仮説1】自己顔が自分の身体の一部である事実を反映した「視覚運動統合」に過ぎない。【仮説2】模倣(学習)や共感など社会的認知の神経基盤として注目されている「ミラーシステム」として、自己顔の社会的役割の獲得に関与している。両仮説の検証のため、MRI対応被験者撮影装置を組み込んだ視覚刺激提示システムに刺激遅延提示システムを組み込み、擬似的鏡像自己顔認知環境下で6条件のfMRI実験を行った。被験者は画面に提示されるひらがな1文字を読む課題を遂行し、この間2秒間、背景に被験者の自己顔が鏡像として提示される(self Real, SR)条件が基本的な条件である。同じ自己顔について鏡像提示を500ms遅延させるSelf Delay (SD)条件、あらかじめ録画してあった静止画が提示されるSelf Static (SS)条件、また同様に他者の顔が提示されるOther Real (OR)、Other Delay (OD)、Other Static (OS)の3条件を、設定した。仮説1が正しければ、右頭頂-前頭領域は自己顔の運動に対するフィードバック二語差がある条件、すなわちSDとSSのみで活動上昇が見られると期待される。一方で仮説2が正しければ、すべての自己顔(S)条件で活動が上昇するはずである。被験者12名分の実験結果を解析した結果、右頭頂領域の活動はSDとSSのみで活動上昇が見られるパターンとなり、仮説1が正しいことが示された。ただし、右下前頭溝の前方部で、すべての自己顔(S)条件で活動が上昇するパターンが見られた。この領域は「ミラーシステム」として知られる領域ではないが、活動パターンからは社会的な意味での「自己」認知に関与することが示された。

    我々が日常的に経験した「出来事」を様々な記憶要素の連合と考え、その脳メカニズムの解明を目指している。「場所」「人物」「物体」の3種類の記憶要素の脳内表象と、これらが情動体験と連合するメカニズムが研究対象である。本年度は、より統制された実験課題によって3種類の記憶要素の連合メカニズムを明らかにした。記憶要素をコントロールするために、学習セッションを用いて人工的に「出来事」記憶を操作した。被験者が探偵として事件を解決するロールプレイング形式の学習(偽体験)セッショシを行わせ、形成された人工的な「出来事」で実際の自伝的「出来事」をモデル化した。事件が起きた場所の写真で文脈プライミングを行う条件と行わない条件で「人物」と「物体」の認知課題を被験者に行わせた。文脈プライミングを行った場合、「人物」と「物体」の認知時に連合している出来事を想起する処理過程が効率化され、連合に関与する脳領域の活動が低下することが期待される。測定した認知時の脳活動を、2条件間で比較した結果、左の海馬と下側頭回前部にプライミングに伴う活動低下が見られた。これらの領域が「場所」「人物」「物体」の3種類の記憶要素を出来事として統合する役割を担うことが、世界で初めて明らかとなった。この成果について現在学会発表・論文執筆を準備中である。さらに事件解決の成否や被験者の性格と、学習セッション・認知セッションでの脳活動との相関を検討し、情動体験との連合メカニズムを解析中である。
