Kazuhide Hashiya, Professor
0 student voices
The Comparative Developmental Psychology Lab aims to clarify the development of communication and its foundations through behavioral experiments grounded in natural science. To approach both development unique to humans and development shared across species, the lab conducts comparative developmental and comparative behavioral research informed by evolutionary perspectives and theories. As a foundation for research on infants and young children, the lab runs a volunteer panel named the "Kyushu University Baby Researchers" and conducts studies at the "Baby Lab" on campus. In cooperation with other research institutions, the lab also conducts experimental research on non-human primates such as chimpanzees.
Wakako Sanefuji, Associate Professor

The lab studies, from the perspective of developmental psychology, how babies' understanding and behavior develop over time. Its questions are how babies view themselves and others, and from what age and in what way they come to understand the unseen “mind.” The lab carries out research and practical activities that also take individual differences in development and developmental support into view, such as methods for identifying children with developmental difficulties early and aspects of development promoted through interaction with others.
Koichi Toya, Professor
0 student voices
The lab takes a clinical psychology approach to examining ways of supporting the communication development of children with difficulties in interpersonal relationships, such as autism spectrum disorder and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Mainly through group approaches, the lab supports friendship formation and psychological well-being in children with developmental disabilities, and also supports their families, especially siblings of children with disabilities. The rehabilitation techniques for children and adults with disabilities based on Clinical Dohsa-hou, developed mainly at the lab, are used not only in Japan but also in other Asian countries. The lab also works on developmental support and support for childcare workers at children's homes, nurseries, and after-school childcare centers.
Mari Tanaka, Professor

The lab studies the clinical psychology of people with developmental disabilities, intellectual disabilities, and related conditions, as well as support for schools, workplaces, and families to build accessible environments. Its research and clinical themes include self-understanding and understanding of others among children and adults with developmental disabilities, building support environments from a lifespan developmental perspective, support for students with disabilities in higher education institutions, and clinical activities through group work. The lab places importance on connecting the "questions" found in clients' everyday life contexts to clinical research. Professor Mari Tanaka belongs to the Faculty of Arts and Science, and holds concurrent positions in the Faculty of Education and the Department of Human Coexistence Systems at the Graduate School of Human-Environment Studies.
Takayuki Yoshimura, Professor

The Yoshimura Lab conducts clinical psychological practice and research on developing effective school counseling activities and verifying their effects, on disruption in classrooms and schools, and on bullying. Its research and clinical themes also include support for recovery from classroom and school disruption, the activities of psychology professionals under the Act for the Promotion of Measures to Prevent Bullying, and practice research on approaches that address the mind–body relationship. Professor Takayuki Yoshimura holds concurrent appointments in the Department of Human Coexistence Systems and the Department of Practical Clinical Psychology at the Graduate School of Human-Environment Studies.
Satoshi Koga, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Koga Lab studies psychological support for addictive problems such as alcohol and drug dependence, and the clinical application of action methods such as clinical Dohsa-hou and psychodrama. Associate Professor Satoshi Koga worked as a full-time psychologist at a psychiatric hospital, where he used psychodrama and Dohsa-hou to build psychiatric rehabilitation programs in cooperation with other professions. The lab hopes that students aiming to become clinical psychologists will acquire a lifespan developmental perspective that allows them to work with any kind of client, along with a wide range of support techniques.
Reiji Sasaki, Associate Professor

The lab conducts practice and research on drawing methods centered on the Landscape Montage Technique, communication in clinical psychological settings, research methods in clinical psychology, and remote psychological support. It also studies places where children can feel they belong, as well as equine-assisted therapy, and has opened and runs a place for children in Itoshima. The lab's goal is for its members to become "people who can dive deep," both in clinical psychological practice and in advancing research. Associate Professor Reiji Sasaki holds concurrent appointments in the Department of Human Coexistence Systems and the Department of Practical Clinical Psychology at the Graduate School of Human-Environment Studies.
Shuhei Kaneko, Associate Professor

The lab conducts practical research on counseling based on humanistic psychology (client-centered therapy and experiential psychotherapy), encounter groups and facilitator training, and support in the forensic field. The lab hopes students will acquire, in good balance, both "theoretical learning" through close reading of papers and specialist books, and "experiential learning" through experiences such as helping and being helped and group experiences. The research topics, subjects, and approaches of students in the lab vary widely.
Eiji Ozawa, Associate Professor
