Construction of an international version of the psychological test based upon the game theory for detecting the social motives in the social interaction situations.

本研究的主要目的是为本项目代表所提出的“如果-然后方法”构建一个国际版本。该方法由一系列简单的32项判断任务组成，是一种在社会交往情境中检测个体社会动机的心理测验。从理论上讲，这种方法是以心理博弈论为基础的。测试检测到的个体反应意味着他在这种情况下对对方球员的反应的总体趋势。这一倾向表现为一组与九个规范性社会动机成分相对应的九个比率的形式，即个人主义、受虐狂、利他主义、攻击性、合作性、施虐受虐症、竞争、殉道和平等主义。在这项测试中，自动计算了对任务作出反应的可靠性指数和9个动力成分分布的不确定度指数。IF-THEN方法…More具有多种特点和诸多优势。特别是在一些跨文化研究方面，它在结构上有一些突出的特点。为“如果-然后方法”制作国际版的具体工作主要有：1)为IBM计算机编制程序，使心理学研究具有足够的国际性；2)制作多种语言编写的教学论文，以便在世界范围内广泛使用；3)制作英文手册或指南，使用“如果-然后方法”。本研究取得的成果如下。1)用于分析受试者反应的计算机程序基本上是以移植到世界上最流行的IBM计算机上的形式完成的。2)关于提供给各小组的指导文件，已完成以下23种语言的翻译：日语、英语、德语、法语、俄语、西班牙语、葡萄牙语、荷兰语、意大利语、瑞典语、挪威语、丹麦语、波兰语、匈牙利语、阿拉伯语、土耳其语、韩语、汉语(北京和台湾)、泰语、印度尼西亚语、越南语和马来西亚语。3)以英文编写的“如果-然后方法”手册的编制工作目前已基本完成，但今后还需要进行一些详细的检查。较少

The present study is essentially aimed to construct an international version for the "IF-THEN method" which was constructed by the representative of this project. This method which consists of a series of simple 32 decsion tasks is a kind of psychological test for detecting the individual social motives in the social interaction situation. Theoretically, this method is based upon the psychological game theory. An individual responses detected by the test mean a general tendency of his responses evoked to the opposite playr in the situation. This tendency is expressed in a form of a set of the nine ratios corresponding to the nine normative social motive components, viz., individualism, masochism, altruism, aggression, cooperation, sadomasochism, competition, martyrdom and equalitarianism. In this test, both the index of the reliability for responding to the tasks and the index of uncertainty in the distribution of nine motive components are automatically calculated. The "IF-THEN method … More " has various kinds of characteristics and many advantages. Especially, it has structurally some prominent mark with respect to some cross-cultural studies.The major concrete works for making the international version for the "IF-THEN method" are as follows : 1) constructing the program for the IBM computers to give enough internationality in psychological researches, 2) making the instruction papers which are written in many languages to be used in a wide area in the world, and 3) making the manual or guide book written in English for use the "IF-THEN method". Results obtained in this study are as follows. 1) The computer program for analyzing the subject's responses has veen fundamentally completed in a form of transplanting in the IBM computers which are most popular in the world. 2) Concerning the instruction papers given to the subjexts, the translation into the following 23 kinds of languages are completed, viz., Japanese, English, German, French, Russian, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Italian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Polish, Hungarian, Arabic, Turkish, Korean, Chinese(Peking and Taiwan), Thai, Indonesian, Vietnamese and Malaysian. 3) The work for making the manual written in English for use in the "IF-THEN method" has fundamentally finished for the time being though some detailed inspection would be necessary in future.
