A neurosis called anthropophobia is common and characteristic of Japanese people. Negative self-awareness in interpersonal relationships as found in anthropophobics is thought to spring from the Japanese mode of interpersonal relationships. The purpose of this study is to clarify the structure of negative self-awareness from a cross-cultural point of view. A questionnaire consisting of 117 questions related to negative self-awareness in interpersonal relationships was composed by Ogawa (1974), and was given to three groups: anthropophobics, Japanese university students, and American university students (some in Japan and some in the U.S.). Each of these groups consisted of 40 males and 40 females, totalling 320 in all. As a result of a factor analysis, eight factors were extracted and these were found to be similar to those of a previous study. Next, the scores of these 4 groups were compared, factor by factor. The anthropophobics scored highest in all factors, the Japanese university students scored the second highest in every factor, while the U.S. students scored the lowest. The scores of the Japanese students were significantly lower than those of the anthropophobics, and also significantly higher than those of the U.S. students. As a result of a factor analysis of the American students' scores, the following interesting factors were discovered: 1) Worry of the inability to blend into a group. 2) Awareness of others, and self-consciousness in the presence of others. 3) A constant sense of feeling "low" and "not right". 4) Worry of not living a meaningful life. 5) Worry of being overwhelmed by a crowd of people. 6) Worry of feeling tension in an intimate situation. 7) Personal dissatisfaction with oneself, and with one's mental abilities. 8) Worry about the ability to feel relaxed in the presence of others.
