“Eating Disorder as Social Pathology- A skinny Oriented Culture Surrounding Young People”
【Overview】Considering eating disorder as a sort of social pathology, analyze and examine the process of how a skinny-oriented culture leads to increase of eating disorder. And discuss how we can stop this and further issues.（In addition to a doctoral thesis submitted to the University of Sacred Heart in 2004）
It is essential for all the professionals involved in children, not limited to children’s psychotherapists, to understand the phenomena of this social pathology that can be seen among children, whose mental health is influenced heavily by society.

"Disability of thinking activities and Rorschach method - actuality of theory, research and differential diagnosis"
【Overview】 Full translation of "Disordered thinking and the Rorschach" by James H Kleiger. I was in charge of the translation of chapter 10 (p 185 - 199) To differentiate psychosis by Rorschach method, assessment of thought activity and its bias is one of important psychological factors. It is probably the first book written for this thought disorder, which is systematically summarized from the viewpoint of the Rorschach method.
