We will search newspapers, medical databases, and books, for the definitions, assumed causes, measurements and backgroud of <em>Hikikomori<\/em>, and summarize the information in a comprehensive table. We will also identify interviewees in Southeast Asia to assess how <em>Hikikomori<\/em> is recognized in the region.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"base_h5\">Description<\/h5>\n<p>Yomishi Kasahara proposed the term \u201cretreat neurosis\u201d in 1976 to describe patients that cannot work full time and exhibit apathy, indifference, and depression. The medicalization of those symptoms is thought to have started around the appearance of the term. Although the word <em>Hikikomori<\/em> has been used since the 1980s, no study has dealt with the evolution of the definition, cause, and problem of <em>Hikikomori<\/em>. It is reported that in addition to Japan, <em>Hikikomori<\/em> is observed in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Spain, and Australia. If we suppose that the emergence of <em>Hikikomori<\/em> is caused by modernization, countries in Southeast Asia may also face a similar problem. The study will provide resources for thinking about how to measure and address <em>Hikikomori<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<table  class=\"table-caption\">\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/fy2016vi-3-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/fy2016vi-3-1.jpg\" ><\/a><br \/>\nVisiting program for various patients with psychiatric disorders including \u201cHikikomori\u201d.<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/fy2016vi-3-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/fy2016vi-3-2.jpg\" ><\/a><br \/>\nLeaflet for special outpatient program for \u201cHikikomori\u201d.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project Leader\uff1aImai Hissei (Mitsuya clinic) Outline of Research The research will clarify the background of th [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":true,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_locale":"en_US","_original_post":"454","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1037","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-type-vi","7":"en-US","8":"czr-hentry"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8oDLW-gJ","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1037"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1037"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1037\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1038,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1037\/revisions\/1038"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1037"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1037"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1037"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
