这项研究检查了迷走神经活动的文化，心理，社会和身体相关性-疾病风险因素-以检查发达国家健康与现代生活方式（例如单身家庭）之间的联系。在2020年，五项研究收集了来自人类参与者的经验数据（总共N= 1，073）。总之，这些研究通过实证分析，确定了独居者与其他类型家庭的人口学特征和身心健康的相关性;（2）研究了日本家庭类型、居住流动性和个人主义对社会经历的心理反应的差异。这些研究所产生的数据目前正在准备出版。

This research examined the cultural, mental, social, and physical correlates of vagus nerve activity- a disease risk factor- in order to examine the connection between health and modern lifestyles (e.g. single-person households) in developed countries. In the 2020 year, five studies gathered empirical data from human participants (N= 1,073 in total). Overall, these studies empirically identified the demographic profiles and mental and physical health correlates of individuals living alone compared to those in other types of households and (2) examined the differences in psychological responses to social experiences as a function of household type, residential mobility, and individualism in Japan. The data yielded from these studies are currently being prepared for publication.
