welcome toletter of welcome

Dear Delegates,
Welcome to the Fourth Annual Asian Conference on Psychology and the Behavioral Sciences, which is again
to be held this year alongside the Fourth Asian Conference on Ethics, Religion and Philosophy, and welcome
to the great city of Osaka.
These joint conferences encourage us to reflect upon how and why we think, as well as reason, believe, andbehave, under the theme of ‘Individual, Community, Society: Conflict, Resolution and Synergy’. The conference
theme is an important one to all delegates, whether engaged in the study of science, philosophy or religion,and is no doubt part the reason that this conference has attracted nearly three hundred delegates from acrossthe globe. Over these few days together we will consider questions related to conflict and resolution in avariety of contexts from the perspectives of scholars, policy makers, educators, therapists, medical doctors,
patients, priests and charity workers. Using the lenses of science, religion and philosophy we will search forcommon ground and research synergies.
The programme for this conference promises to be an exciting one, with thematic topics that address thecentral aim of the conference in different but complementary ways, including through papers that draw
on empirical research, that develop theoretical and conceptual insights, that engage with pedagogy, and theexperiential. The conference will be enhanced through its wide variety of presenters, who will draw ontheir diverse experiences and knowledges and on their academic, personal and geographical contexts, in a
programme that promises stimulating and challenging discussion.
I have no doubt that we will all be able to use the time spent at this conference for intellectual discovery andfor the development of collaborative links and connections between the researchers, academics, scholars andpractitioners who are attending. We have a lot to learn from each other in this international academic forum.
I look forward to meeting you all.

Dear Professors, Colleagues and Friends,

On behalf of The International Academic Forum, I would like to thank you all for participating in this conference,and for all your contributions. I trust you will enjoy this social and scientific gathering in Osaka during the cherry
blossom season, and I hope you experience new international perspectives both within the conference, and in
the culturally rich Kansai area.
Our conference theme this year is “Individual, Community and Society: Conflict, Resolution and Synergy”, an open
theme designed to encourage a number of interpretations, yet our goal is one: to work together towards a unified
world by looking for idealistic solutions to disagreements and conflicts between people, nations and ethnic groups.
We wish to find solutions and alternatives to improving the lives of each other and ourselves. Deep within each of
us is the desire to live without conflict, in peace and tranquility. We all want to have a unified family and enjoy time
together with friends and colleagues for we are social creatures. However, we have to accept the reality that somepeople see life experiences in different ways, and perceive realities from different perspectives, and academic
disciplines. Here, in Osaka over the next few days, we will soon be confronted with some of these differences, as
we look for solutions and answers together. So, please take this opportunity to share your ideas openly with, andbe informed by, people from different disciplines, nations and cultures.
Wishing you a great conference!

Keynote Speech: Blameworthy Character Invites Harsher Punishment: A Social Psychological Approach to Punitive
Motives against Individuals and Groups

acp 2014
keynote speaker

Minoru Karasawa received his Master’s degree from Kyoto University and Ph.D. from the University of California,
Los Angeles, both majoring in psychology. After teaching at Aichi Gakuin University and Kobe University, he has
been at Nagoya University since 2006. Dr. Karasawa’s primary research area has been social cognition, coveringvarious issues such as social categorization, intergroup cognition and emotions, and the role of culture and language
in social inferences. He is also heading a research project on the psychological mechanism underlying judgments of
responsibility and punitive motives in legal contexts. He has been an Associate Editor of the Asian Journal of Social
Psychology and the Editor of the Japanese Journal of Social Psychology. Academic associations that he has served as aboard member include the Japanese Society of Social Psychology, the Japanese Group Dynamics Association, and theJapanese Society for Law and Psychology. He has been a member of the Science Council of Japan since 2006.

Ordinary people typically think that it is fair to punish an individual, and a group, who has certain undesirable characterssuch as immoral proclivity. In this presentation, I will discuss why and how this intuitive judgment of fairness against
unwanted character is formed. First, I will point out that there are at least two different kinds of views that may govern
punitive motives; that is, utilitarian judgments and the sense of retributive justice. I will then present findings fromsocial psychological studies that demonstrate different roles of these two views that lead to harsher punishment ofimmoral or inhuman criminal defendants. Next, I will turn to pointing out the lay tendency to regard social groups andorganizations (e.g., corporates) as entitative social agents, just like individual actors. This may lead to blaming the groupas an independent and responsible entity in case of its wrongdoing, and thereby resulting in actual punitive behavior
such as boycotting. Theoretical models as well as empirical evidence will be presented to elucidate psychologicalprocesses underlying the animating perception of group agents. Possibilities of interplay between psychological studies
of person/group perception and those of morality judgments will be discussed.

Keynote Speech: Government Officials’ Visits to the Yasukuni Shrine: Constitutional and Ethical Struggles
For those familiar with Japan, the simple mention of the Yasukuni Shrine raises the specter of controversy. The Shrine
is an edifice of the Meiji Era that sprung from humble beginnings into the site of international controversy. The shrine
was originally created in 1879 to commemorate government soldiers killed in the Boshin War, but it has grown into asymbol of Japanese nationalism, militarism, and historical revisionism, which is controversial to many people within thepacifist culture in Japan, and to people in China, Korea and Taiwan.

Among those enshrined there today are those involved in military expansionism and war crimes. This includes
fourteen Class-A war criminals who were secretly enshrined without public knowledge. There are, of course, manyenshrined there who did not commit war crimes, but the cultural meaning of the shrine is itself controversial within
Japan, which has become a culture deeply rooted in pacifism. Moreover, to many Koreans, Chinese, Taiwanese andothers, visits to the shrine by high-ranking government officials is an offense. Visits to the shrine by government officials
create an ethical and cultural struggle for many Japanese, who are surprised to learn of international reaction to thevisits, and yet feel deeply committed to avoiding conflict.
Japan is a constitutional democracy, however, and whether or not visits to the Yasukuni Shrine by the government
officials are offensive and ill advised, the question remains whether those visits are constitutional. Most courts toconsider the question have held the visits are constitutional, but at least one court, the Osaka High Court, held thevisits are unconstitutional. This talk explains why the Osaka High Court correctly interpreted the Japanese Constitution.
Moreover, the talk addresses why this approach is consistent with the ethical commitments of many in Japan, who
accept pacifism as part of the cultural dasein.

Featured Speech: Rethinking interpersonal conflict strategies: Is avoiding really that bad?
Conflict abounds in our everyday relationships, and their skillful management is the key to interpersonal harmony. In
dealing with conflict, the received view is that we should directly confront the other party with the issues, followedby constructive, mutual communication, negotiating a solution which leads to both parties being able to fully fulfil our
respective goals. Rahim (2002) calls this the integrating conflict style. At the other end of effectiveness scale is the
avoiding conflict style. Avoiding leaves the issue outstanding, with the other party not aware of doing you any injustice,and your dissatisfaction with him/her increasing until you snap. Avoiding, according to Rahim (2002), lacks self-concern,
as well as other-concern, leaving nothing resolved, and surely ending up in a lose-lose situation. But is avoiding reallysuch a bad strategy? My graduate students and I have been studying conflict styles of Japanese, and our opinion isthat avoiding is quite effective. This talk will elaborate on why, when and how avoiding can actually be a wise choice inmanaging interpersonal conflict.

Tarumanagara University, Indonesia

Featured Speech: Being Responsible: A Personal Challenge in Resolving Conflicts
Conflict is an integral part in human life. Kurt Lewin in his field theory described various conflict conditions withina person in a process of decision making. Lawrence Kohlberg in his moral theory explained how a person deals
with conflicting situations prior to execute an action. Numbers of social theorists reported how people must deal
with their social roles, and the Freudian concept has discussed extensively various forms of conflicts between the id
and superego, between drives and ethical concerns. Remaining in a conflicting situation creates tension. Tension may
increase preparedness and readiness in numbers of life challenges, but tension that remains in a lengthy condition
can become preconditions for pathology. While defense mechanisms may resolve challenging problems temporarily,
they are extending the possibility of inner conflicts. Honesty, acceptance and genuineness are important aspects forpeople to resolve conflicts. Fear on the other hand inhibits conflict resolution, and preventing potential synergy inhuman interactions. Fear to choose allowing someone to remain in conflicting situation thus maintaining tension. Fearto accept creates denial to self which gradually take a person into allienation. Conflict resolution needs courageous
responsible act. Being responsible is a great challenge for many people, yet it is a strong remedy to resolve conflicts.

Featured Speech - Conflict, Resolution & Synergy: All Things Begin with the self/Self
WE choose our level of consciousness by our intentions and subsequent actions. To evolve through conflict and manifest
resolution and even synergy, we need to first begin with SELF. During this talk you will come to understand how what
WE bring to the space of conflict, resolution or synergy directly affects the process and outcome. Consciousness andscience research, thought leaders and individuals such as yourselves who seek greater understanding of this process
have shifted our world into a new paradigm and even zeitgeist; a world that can value leaning-in to this moment andimmersing Self into the practice of consciousness. When we understand that ~ ALL Things Begin with the self/Self ~we are resilient to conflict, open to resolution and incite synergy.

IAFORThe International Academic Forum
Academic Vision and Mission“To Open Minds, To Educate Intelligence, To Inform Decisions”
The vision of IAFOR grew out of the perceived need to fill a vacuum in the communication and exchange activities of the academic
world. Its mission arose out of examining that space and investigating why it existed. The vacuum existed because of the lack ofopportunity for serious and thoughtful exchange between academics, members of the global business community, and practitioners
in the fields of human endeavor that linked these groups together. In the field of education, for example, we have academic theorists,
educational managers (political decision-makers and organizational directors) and classroom teachers with their support staff in IT,
library work, exchange programs, and specialist fields. But how often do they have the opportunity to interact?
Moving beyond one particular field, larger questions arise. What function should universities prioritize in the 21st century? What
do businesses see as their contribution to social and global well being? How can people on the ground, trying to implement
improvements that will transform human life, best be supported? And perhaps above all, what are the agendas that will drive
mechanisms to enable these groups to interact effectively.
One piece of distilled thought that came from early exchanges at one of our conferences was the recognition that some of therhetoric of concern about the problems of developing nations was perhaps over-focused on the term “poverty” because it can be
defined only in a relative way. “Hunger” was put forward as being more immediate and itself a contributory factor to poverty, rather
than the other way round. One key to the hunger issue could be the provision of safe drinking water, or water for irrigation in somecontexts, while flood management might be necessary elsewhere. These, in and by themselves become valuable only insofar as they
help to relieve hunger in specific contexts.
IAFOR is affording opportunities that do not exist elsewhere. The base is Osaka, Japan’s great commercial and manufacturing hub,
one symbol of the emerging Pacific economy that is already eclipsing the long dominant Atlantic zone. Our conferences present
those taking part with three unique dimensions of experience. First of all, it encourages interdisciplinary activity to be expanded.
Depending on the field, this can face varying degrees of difficulty, ranging from discouragement to downright prohibition. Those
overly dependent on fixed academic structures often see lateral thinking as a threat. None of these negatives apply in IAFOR. Its
purpose is to generate new approaches that cross any disciplinary lines. The principle employed is to let the imagination permit
intuitive responses to questions. There are no panels of critics. There are simply people who want to listen and reflect. The model ofacademic work as potholing is replaced by the metaphor of mountaineering. While respecting the need for solid and well-founded
academic work, we feel the need to go beyond it from time to time to discover fresh approaches to old questions.
Secondly, it facilitates the heightening of intercultural awareness. Again, we encourage innovation through cross-cultural perception.
Cultural roots influence people in their attitudes more than most would realize or admit. The need to see and internalize insights
gained from other viewpoints is met by a process of steady illumination.
Thirdly, it promotes the broadening of international exchange. We may live in a globalized world, but in reality parochialism still holds
sway. The collapse of the U.S.S.R and the break-up of Yugoslavia led to the re-establishment of numerous former countries. While
this may be desirable for the peoples concerned, it merely adds to the world’s cultural confusion. Exchange leads to explanation andthat helps the growth of intercultural awareness.
IAFOR makes all of these developments possible in one gathering. Our conferences are not a substitute for specialist conferences.
We intend our events to be an alternative that functions as a balance or even a corrective to the extreme tendencies that can arise
from more narrowly defined research parameters. In short, IAFOR is promoting and facilitating a new multifaceted approach to oneof the core issues of our time, namely globalization and its many forms of growth and expansion. Awareness of how it cuts acrossthe worlds of business, and academia, along with its impact on societies and institutions is one of the driving forces that has given
the organization its momentum, and is making it a pioneer in this global age.
