Abstract

Recent research affords adscititious knowledge concerning Japanese oral communication practices. Seven studies are collocated with the substance and principal findings of each chronicled. The studies cover affect orientation, argumentativeness, immediacy, loneliness, verbal predispositions, social style, and verbal aggressiveness. Combined with previously known attributes of Japanese speaking and with socio‐cultural backgrounds regarding Japanese communication practices, the seven comparative studies provide a characterization of the typical Japanese communicator.
