The graffiti is a psychological act that is close to being instinctive in human beings. In this paper, we analyzed graffiti from nine viewpoints. The subjects comprised 84 undergraduate women enrolled in Childcare courses. All had shown a long-term interest in infants and handicapped children, and had many opportunities to see pictures drawn by children. Subjects were asked to respond to the following nine questions: "When do you draw graffiti?," "Where do you draw graffiti?," "What equipment do you use when you scribble?," "What graffiti do you draw?," "What feelings do you have when drawing graffiti?," "What meaning does the graffiti have for you?," "What meaning does the graffiti have?," "When did you start drawing graffiti?," and "Do you think that there are any differences in the graffiti drawn by children and that by adults?" As a result, we found the following. Subjects tended to draw graffiti simply when the spirit moved them, or when they had time. Graffiti was drawn in the blank spaces of a notebook or on any paper at hand. The subjects usually used a mechanical pencil or pencil to draw graffiti. Many subjects drew pictures of cartoon characters and animals, human faces and so on. The purpose of the graffiti was to kill time or to encourage a change of pace. A majority of subjects responded that they drew graffiti most frequently as a high school student. This was followed in order of frequency by junior high school student, elementary school student, undergraduate and finally infant. After puberty, the use of notebooks increased and there was an increase in subjects who described their motive in drawing graffiti as a diversion.
