Like many countries in Asia, Japan has traditionally been more of a collectivist culture. However, with the rise of globalization it is becoming more individualistic. Yuji Ogihara and Yukiko Uchida conducted a study to see how this rise in individualism in Japan might be affecting mental health. The researchers received financial support (money) from the Society for the Promotion of Science to help them carry out the study.<\/p>\n<p>The participants in this study were 34 Japanese women who worked for a large insurance company in Japan. Their ages ranged from 22-51, with a mean age of 27.\u00a0 The researchers contacted the company directors about the study. The directors then advertised it via an internal email asking for volunteers and those willing to participate took part in the study.* The women filled out questionnaires that were designed to measure their level of individualism and their subjective well being (the psychological term for &#8220;happiness&#8221;). They were also asked to draw a diagram that measured their number of close friends.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers then used this data to calculate the standardized regression coefficients of this data. This means they were testing to see if individualism was positively or negatively associated with subjective well-being and the number of close friends the women had.<\/p>\n<p>The results showed that individualistic orientation was negatively associated with subjective well-being: the more individualistic the female workers, the lower their levels of happiness. They also found that individualism was negatively associated with the number of close friends they had.<\/p>\n<p>These results are similar to an earlier study the researchers conducted that showed similar correlations between individualism subjective well-being and friendships in Japanese college students. The same correlations weren&#8217;t found in American college students.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers conclude that the results show that &#8220;an individualistic orientation dampened (reduced) close interpersonal relationships and SWB in Japan.&#8221; In other words, the rise of individualism is reducing happiness and friendships. This suggests that &#8220;&#8230;individualism has a negative effect in East Asian cultural contexts.&#8221; This is an important finding because Japan, like many countries, is becoming more individualistic as a result of globalization.<\/p>\n<p>Another conclusion from the study is that having close friends helps to reduce the negative effects of individualism on happiness. Having friends acts as a &#8220;buffer&#8221; between individualism and happiness. But this is difficult for Japanese people to do because while they might be more individualistic as a result of globalization, they have not developed the same level of interpersonal skills needed to make friends.<\/p>\n<p>These findings could be used for future research. The researchers suggest that further studies might use longitudinal methods to find more concrete evidence for a cause-effect relationship between the variables. They also state the importance of the findings in relation to globalization and what this means for Asian countries. For example, to protect against the negative influences of globalization, Bhutan (a small country between China and India) has developed policies\u00a0<em>against\u00a0<\/em>globalization. They claim that Gross National Happiness are just important as the financial well-being of the country. Maybe other countries will consider using findings like this to justify policies against globalization.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-header-container\">\n<h6 class=\"header-bar-three\">Ogihara, Yuji.
