4083.94 A study to re-define school adjustment: What kind of needs do the pupils have in school
environment? Ebina Yuki, Ochanomizu University, Japan
The purpose of this study is to explore the needs that school pupils have in the school environment,
and to re-define the concept of school adjustment. The survey was conducted for 503 elementary
school pupils in 7 elementary schools in Japan. In the initial survey, three types of needs were
identified: growth, enjoyment, and relaxation. As a result, all of these needs were equally
correlated with school enjoyment. For Japanese pupils, school environment is the place not only to
get the stimulus for growth or new knowledge, but also to reduce their stress, and to forget
negative things.
4083.95 The organization of coping self-statements of junior high school students, Otona
Tanaka, Waseda University, Japan
The aim of this study was to examine the organization of coping self-statements of junior high
school students (N=268) within interpersonal stressful situations. The results revealed that they
use negative affect self-statements to others (i.e., negative judgment and hostility) as well as
positive statements to themselves (i.e., conciliation, rational thinking, and focusing their
prospective behaviors). Because many studies have focused only on the treatment of cognitive
behavioral problems, it was virtually unknown that what kind of self-statement actual students
prefer to use. The present study might be one of few studies that unveiled this issue by analyzing
participants’ self-reports.
