Description

    <br>    This paper reviews psychological research on personality conducted in Japan between July 2013 and June 2014.  During the last year, the trends in personality research clearly included the following problems : first, the major contents to be studied were biased, and research on the structure and development of personality is relatively lacking.  Second, studies on the effects of personality in each life stage, the association between personality, and maladaptive and adaptive techniques were considerably high in number.  However, many of these studies were cross-sectional.  To prove causation, longitudinal study and randomized controlled experiments must be conducted. Third, there were many studies on scaling by questionnaires,which were similar to previous scales that were conducted according to other methods.  Hence, these studies are considered necessary for the classification and organization of scales.  Further development is expected in approaches other than the questionnaire method.
