 note = {Cultural psychologists claimed that self-construals of East Asians are qualitatively different from those of Westerners. The two previous studies with Chinese and American samples found that East Asians possess more ambivalent self-construals than Westerners. However, Chinese are not the only East Asians. By using Japanese and American samples, the present study refined and replicated these two previous studies. Both Japanese (460 high school students, 39 college students, & 90 adults) and American (58 college students, 91.4% Caucasian) participants wrote down 7 self-descriptions in an “I am …” format. The results indicated that Japanese wrote ambivalent self-descriptions more frequently than Americans as same as the previous studies found.
