Abstract

The purpose of this study is to show an alternative model of cultural self-construals which can explain the difference in self perception between South Koreans and Japanese. Traditionally accurate perception of self has been essential for achieving mental health. But some researchers argue that positive illusions(or self-enhancing biases) are characteristic of general human thinking. Self-enhancement is one of the most reliable findings in Western cultures. However, many cross-cultural studies have found little or no such self-enhancing biases in Japan. Therefore, it has been argued that the cultural difference in self perception reflects cross-culturally divergent view of self as independent(in Europian American cultures) or as interdependent (in Asian cultures). But this perspective cannot explain positive illusions that South Koreans have. In order to solve this problem we proposed an alternative model of cultural self-construals; subjective self of South Koreans and objective self of Japanese.
