Background : There are some reports on psychological maladjustment of foreign students studying in a second-language environment. To clarify the factors affecting the maladjustment of Japanese students studying in an English environment at a Japanese university, we examined 91 Japanese first-grade students, who had no psychological distress and scored 480 points or more on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) at the time of entrance.Methods : The presence/absence of psychological maladjustment was assessed using the Kessler Psychological Distresses Scale, conducted three months after entrance. As possible factors affecting the maladjustment, suitemate, tendencies towards shyness and perfectionism, TOEFL scores, attitudes toward taking classes in English and the location of the university were employed.Results : Results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the psychological maladjustment was associated with greater perfectionism (Odds ratio 20.1 ; 95% confidence interval 2.06~197) and lower TOEFL scores (23.6, 2.09~307) of the above factors.Conclusion : In Japanese students studying in English environments, greater perfectionism and lower TOEFL scores may affect psychological maladjustment. Some intervention for perfectionistic-prone students may be necessary, in order to foster their adjustments in such universities.
