TL;DR: The authors found that subjects in the Public conditions showed opinion change in the direction of the counterattitudinal position while subjects in Anonymous conditions did not, and that inducement manipulation was not effective in producing differential opinion change.
Abstract: jects were offered five pencils for recording the statements. It was found that subjects in the Public conditions showed opinion change in the direction of the counterattitudinal position while subjects in the Anonymous conditions did not. The inducement manipulation was not effective in producing differential opinion change. These results were discussed in terms of dissonance, self-presentation, and self-perception theories.

TL;DR: In this paper, bona fide and counterfeit Kanjis were presented to either the left or right visual field, and subjects judged whether or not the presented Kanji (left/right) appeared in the semantically appropriate side of the visual field.
Abstract: periment, in which bona fide and counterfeit Kanjis were presented to either the left or the right visual field, and showed no difference between two visual fields. In the third experiment, subjects judged whether or not the presented Kanji (left/right) appeared in the semantically appropriate side of the visual field. The results suggested a strong left hemisphere contribution. Possible mechanisms for Kanji processing at different levels were discussed within an information processing framework.

TL;DR: In this article, a new criterion to estimate the number of factors in multiple factor analysis was proposed, based on the mathematical relationships between the principle of the linear regression analysis passing through the origin and that of the minres factor analysis by Harman (1976).
Abstract: A new criterion to estimate the number of factors in multiple factor analysis was proposed, based on the mathematical relationships between the principle of the linear regression analysis passing through the origin and that of the minres factor analysis by Harman (1976). The criterion is the beta coefficient for the linear regression line defined by the elements in each of the original and the reproduced correlation matrices, and it is obtained with the increase of the number of factors. Numerical examples are presented and some supplemental issues are discussed.
TL;DR: Examination of the effects of instruction specifying the receivers, arrangement of stimulus figures, and the number of critical features on redundancy of a message revealed that messages were less redundant when the characteristics of the receivers were known to the senders.
Abstract: The present experiment was designed to examine the effects of instruction specifying the receivers, arrangement of stimulus figures, and the number of critical features on redundancy of a message. The experiment was carried out in the situation in which receivers of messages were not present in front of the senders. The results revealed that messages were less redundant when the characteristics of the receivers were known to the senders, and that the senders referred to more features as critical features increased. These were interpreted that redundancy of a message tended to be adjusted according to the situation in which the message was produced.
