説明

The present study examined to clarify the age differences and the relationship between choices of seating position and structure of ego. Participants consisted of the three age groups : the undergraduates, the middle age and the older age. They were asked to choose a seat in 3 contexts : one of 12 seats located around the square desk in a party situation ; one of 5 seats in front of the interviewers in an oral examination situation; and one of 5 seats arranged with 2 opposite the other 3 in a debate situation. Sub-scale scores for egogram were compared among the participants who selected each seating position. In the party situation, the age difference was observed in choosing the seating position. Namely, the participants in the middle- and the older-age groups chose the lower seat more often than those of the undergraduate group, whereas the latter groups did more the seat located close to the head of the table than those of the former two age groups. Undergraduates chose the seat on the 2-seat row more often than the seat on the 3-seat row in the debate situation, whereas the participants in two age groups did the latter seat more often than the former seat. The clear relationship was observed only between seating position and Adapted Child (AC) score. Namely, AC scores for the middle and the older age groups who chose the seats located close to the head and the center of the table were higher than the undergraduates who did the same seats. These results were interpreted as showing that focusing on seating position was a tool for guessing the emotional status reflected by ego structure.
