説明

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between alexithymia,loneliness, and social support. The participants were 313 undergraduate students (159 males and 154 females). Measures were Japanese version of the twenty-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20), Japanese version of the revised UCLA loneliness scale, and the Scale of Expectancy for Social Support. The participants were divided into three groups (higher, middle,and lower scores) on the basis of their scores on the TAS-20. Results showed that the higher the level of the alexithymia was,the higher the loneliness was. Moreover,it was revealed that the higher the level of the alexithymia was,the lower the expectancy for social support was. This study suggested that alexithymic individuals feel more loneliness,and have lower expectancy for social support than non-alexithymic individuals. It was discussed that the difficulties of identifying feelings and describing feeling,which are two aspects of alexithymia,may cause higher loneliness and lower expectancy for social support.
