Background: Historically, transactional analysis (TA) was initiated and developed by Berne and Dusey, and egogram analysis has been utilized for years. The egogram includes five egos such as critical parent (CP), nurturing parent (NP), adult (A), free child (FC), adapted child (AC), and has been applied using Tokyo University Egogram (TEG) in Japan. University students were given our class of egogram, and they were studied for further evaluation of the egogram analysis. Research Protocol and Results: Subjects were 376 late teenagers in university students. They were to answer TEG questionnaire with the evaluation of the personality trait. There are 29 typical standard personality patterns acceptable in Japan. By analyzing the data of the subjects, six types with higher prevalence were found in the students than the standard ratio. These are dependent, short temper, self-centered, conflict, solitude, and pessimism. Discussion and Conclusion: From the analyzed data, the overall trend would be as follows: (1) NP is generally low. (2) CP and AC are relatively high, and (3) distribution of A and FC is wide. Subjects are in the internet generation. Obtained data would suggest the probable involvement of the continuing daily internet utilization and various growing environments of each subject.

“…Job demands generally fall into two broad categories: quantitative workload (the amount and speed of work) and qualitative workload (cognitive, mental, and emotional efforts pertaining to the difficulty of tasks and an individual's capabilities) ( 28 ). Studies have reported that quantitative and qualitative workloads are associated with various mental problems among workers ( 29 – 31 ). Job control, the other stress factor in the JDC model, has also been reported to have a strong impact on an individual's perceived occupational stress ( 32 , 33 ).…”

ObjectivesA school teacher's job is considered one of the most stressful occupations worldwide. To maintain the mental health of teachers, it is crucial to clarify the factors affecting work-related stress among teachers. The present study thus aimed to examine the main stressors among primary school teachers considering the difference in job positions by using data from a large-scale nationwide survey.MethodsWe analyzed the data from a nationwide survey of public school teachers conducted between June and December 2021. The total number of participants was 138,651. The information of perceived main stressors, working hours per day, job workloads, job control, workplace support, and stress response scores were assessed by job position.ResultsAmong all teachers' job positions, the working hours of vice-principals were the longest, but their stress response scores were the second lowest. In contrast, the stress response scores among diet and nutrition teachers and health education teachers were the highest; their supervisors' and co-workers' support scores were the lowest among all teachers. Quantitative and qualitative workloads, job control, workplace support from supervisors and co-workers are significantly associated with teachers' stress responses in all job positions. Perceived main stressors among teachers were different depending on job positions. However, regardless of job positions, relationships with supervisors and co-workers were significantly associated with stress response scores among teachers. Dealing with difficult students and parents as well as workloads of clerical tasks were also associated with teachers' stress responses depending on job positions.ConclusionsPerceived main stressors among teachers were different depending on job positions. However, relationships with supervisors and co-workers were significantly associated with stress response levels among teachers regardless of job positions. This study highlighted the importance of interpersonal relationships at the workplace in terms of teachers' mental health. The results suggest that providing interpersonal skills training targeting co-workers' relationships and harassment prevention measures would be crucial to maintain teachers' mental health. The results also suggest that increasing school staff and providing sufficient organizational support for teachers will be required to prevent teachers' burnout.
